General Posts / By

The final four Biltwell Peoples Champ builder videos and photos have been uploaded to the website and voting IS NOW LIVE until the morning of Aug 27. This year, the final voting is open to the internet and will not be done live at Cook’s. This helps the builders who aren’t local have a more level playing field. Remember, all builders still have to ride over Ortega HWY on their bikes and will be DQ’d if they don’t make it to the bar under their own power. These are Go Bikes that are as nicely crafted as any Show Bikes! This year’s builders have met the deadlines and exceeded expectations. Their videos and photo sets are all live on the www.peopleschamp.com website. Now it’s up to you to pick the one who’s gonna win $10k and a spot on the grass with the Invited Builders at Born Free: CLICK HERE TO CAST YOUR VOTE: https://peopleschampshow.com/ Come see the bikes and meet the builders the Friday night before Born Free at Cook’s Corner. The CHAMP will get crowned around 9:00PM!

And now we’re getting a bike the shop describes as a “performance-driven and race-inspired” product. What you’re looking at is a seriously lightened and undressed Harley-Davidson Softail Standard. It is the result of two months of work that saw a lot of the motorcycle’s hardware either being removed completely or replaced, all with the goal of making it lighter. First, a lot of the original bodywork is gone. The fenders have been taken out, a new and full carbon fiber bodywork was placed on top of the frame. Not even the tank remains, having been replaced with a fuel cell hidden inside the new body. Carbon fiber has been used extensively on this build, down to the tubes and the wheels that now weigh just a quarter of what the original ones weighed. Also, lighting and wiring have been kept to a minimum, and a titanium exhaust was added. The bike continues to be powered by the stock 107 Milwaukee Eight engine, only it is no longer fuel-injected, but uses a 45mm Mikuni carburetor. SMCO says the
