This chopper is of course no exception! When he needed something done for his own vehicles that he felt was unable to craft himself he reached out to others in the industry to help him create the stunning autos and trucks he is known for.This frame was hand crafted at West Coast Choppers and was later traded by Jesse James himself to Greg Westbury ( and Biker Build Off Winner 2007) in exchange for work performed on a 1950 Mercury for Jesse. It seems that anything Jesse James of West Coast Choppers fame is ***ociated with has a lengthy story to go with it. All serious offers will be considered however this is not a desperation sale so please dont inquire if you are not a serious buyer. This bike is the real deal, built and owned by the master himself and reflected in the attached photos and magazine spread. Once he decided to keep the bike he pulled out the original 107 CI STD motor and replaced it with a new hand built, made to order, blueprinted 128 CI STD motor boasting 4.5 pistons and a 48 MM Mikuni carburetor boasting 170 HP at the rear wheel to maintain his reputation of having the fastest bike around. Jesse was originally going to sell the bike, private party, and a full magazine spread was done on the bike when its original sale was still pending, but when the buyer could not come up with the balance of the money due to take delivery of the bike Jesse decided to keep the bike for himself. The bike was painted and signed by Damon of Damons Creations who was hailed as the best custom bike painter in the world at the time and the only painter Jesse allowed to shoot any of his award winning masterpieces. The bike is fitted with all of the best components available and powered by a 107 CI hand built, made to order, STD motor and STD six speed transmission, which were the only motors and transmissions Jesse used in all of his early work.
