Description: Advanced Custom Motorcycle Assembly & Fabrication by Timothy Remus Part catalog, part service manual, and part inspiration, this book offers help with planning your project, getting the right look and assembling that custom bike you've dreamed about for years. What started in the mid 1990s, when a few people decided to build stock Softails from aftermarket parts because they couldn't buy one at the dealer, has evolved into a full-blown industry. Today, every small town has a Chopper or Custom bike shop and every cable TV channel has a Biker Build-Off series. No longer content to build copies of stock motorcycles, today's builder wants a motorcycle that's longer, lower, and sexier than anything approved by a factory design team.Part catalog, part service manual, and part inspiration, this book offers help with planning the project, getting the right look and actually assembling that custom bike you've dreamed about for years. Three start-to-finish sequences show not just how the best bikes are bolted together, but how the unique one-off gas tanks are shaped and then covered with candy brandywine paint.Long time motorhead Timothy Remus is the author of over thirty titles: everything from lifestyle books including "Bean're, Motorcycle Nomad"; to how-to books such as Cheap Chopper. Tim reports that the twin responsibilities of writing and publishing leave him with limited free time for the really important things: riding motorcycles and working on projects in the garage.
