Stock: 01IN54-0216
A Rev-Tech powered custom chopper that, as you can see by the pictures, needs some love and care. A perfect project or turn this into a “Rat Chopper”, old-school style. The bike runs excellent now. So mechanically there is nothing to be done. It is a fully functioning bike that was brought back to life after sitting for several years. We re-lined the tank, did a full carb rebuilt and got this bike back on the road. Now either go all the way in the “rat” department or start making things pretty again. See the walk around video on our website that shows the condition in detail.
As with all custom bikes the tires are aged out and should be replaced.
Surprisingly this bike is a very easy handling ride and despite being a hardtail chopper it actually does not rattle your brains out. The 200 rear tire has enough meat to take a good punch instead of your spine. Handles easy over railroad tracks and turns in nicely.
Independence Motorcycle Company was founded in Tucson, Arizona and was in business for about 5 years until they were hit with a lawsuit and judgement from the State of CA for selling new bikes in CA that did not meet the stringent CA requirements. Instead of paying the fine they shut their doors in 2005.
1999 Bourget "Low Blow"
$6,900
1999 Bourget “Low Blow” Pro-Street chopper
Motor: 1,853cc S&S 113ci
Frame: Pro-Street
Transmission: 6-speed
Mileage: Exempt (no odometer/speedometer)
Stock: 99BO55-3855
Bourget is the Rolls Royce of the custom motorcycles with low production numbered bikes that were both great to look at as well as amazing engineered. This Low Blow model uses part of the main frame as the oil reservoir giving the entire bike a much cleaner look. Powered with an S&S 113ci motor it is vastly overpowered. It took Harley another 20 years to come out with an equivalent 114ci motor. An amazing machine with good original paint and very few flaws on the paint or frame. 200mm rear end that is driven through a 3in open primary by a 6-speed transmission.
This bike is not for new riders. It is powerful and aggressive in all aspects. Runs perfect. The tank was just relined, carb rebuilt and oil changed.
