Chaps / Ladys

I am really interested in buying / having built a custom chopper, I haven't the kinda money that they cost in America ie: American Chopper bikes. But would like to know where they build or design them in the uk (Websites would be good).

Any ideas would be cool.

OK, Krazy Horse Customs in Bury St Edmunds, I have been in a few times looking around etc and they look pretty good. Not the full on American Chopper but they don't carry the price tag either!

I've quite fancied the Harley trike type thingy that Billy Conolly rode round Australia on.

Not fussed with the VW types.

Any ideas where to buy in UK?

The choppers look pretty cool too!

get a copy of BSH back street heroes from WHSmiths, etc. There are loads of custom bike builders in there. Some of the choppers they feature are pretty cool bikes, but the really flash ones take a lot of cleaning/looking after. None of them are that cheap!!!

Cool bikes though! Good luck

Also, go on recommendation as the quality of the welding/fininsh may vary from shop to shop....
