I've been hit up with a lot of PM's asking if I know anything about the new scoot so here is what I know and today I should be receiving some more pictures to add to this for your viewing delight.
The new Chopper is somewhat designed after the 04 Chopper as you can tell but with quite a few changes:
The rake has been kicked out to 42 degrees instead of 40
The 111 cu in engine is powder-coated silver vice polished running with a Super G carb
It's using a standard HD style primary system and starter
Still have the Baker 6 spd although I'm not sure if it's the DD6 but assume it's a OD6 to same cost. No more DSSC system here.
Here’s the good news, there is no more EHC, it is all relays and fuses with standard hand controls. I still uses the same ignition.
The speedo is the new sealed model used on the Bulldog.
The Handlebar, risers, hand controls, mirrors, forward controls etc. are off-the-shelf sized items.
That means that when you open the J&P or Drag catalog if it will fit modern Harley, it will fit this bike.
The wheels that are on the current bike that was unveiled at the Indy Show are off of a Coyote. Still in production are new exclusive Chopper wheels that will come out later.
Production should start in May.
Ok, that is all I know but as I hear more I will post it here for all of you. Should get some more pictures today.
I'm liking it but as you all know the Chopper is my favorite model of all time!!
