“The Whiskey Bike”. Supercharged 127ci V-Twin, Air Ride, Single Swingarm. Custom Motorcycle

Designed by Troy Powell at Alley Rat Customs in Las Vegas. This bike toured the bike circuit in 2008-2009, was on display at the Mirage Hotel, SEMA 2010, V-Twin Easyrider Magazine and much more. Throughout the whole time the bike was being displayed, it was never was completed to run. Over six years later I purchased the bike, and with the help of Combs Custom Cycle in Lawrence Kansas, the entire bike was fully wired. plumbed, and corrected, to start and run for the first time in it’s life. This is only the second or third time that it had been started, so it was really tight. After this video we upgraded the battery to LiPo with more CCA. This full custom show bike now runs and rides, but mostly likes being shown. The bike is complete with a Supercharged 127 ci , Baker OD6 Trans, War Eagle Frame with Single Sided Swingarm, Americian Suspension Front end. One-off tank, fenders, oil bag, and handle bars. Crane HI-4 Ignition, SAS Air Ride, One-off War Eagle Wheels, Metzler Tires, CCC Jockey Shift Control with air ride switches, EFM Auto Clutch, PM rear brake, Stainless Creations Stainless Steel Exhaust, custom foot controls, and much more. Paint is light tan base, fully airbrushed to resemble a whiskey barrel, including straps with silver foil inlay, and even a “cork” gas cap. To really make the paint look like real wood, a camel hair brush was dipped in stain and “flicked” all over the paint. The detail in the paint is incredible, and everything that could be painted is painted, including the entire frame. This year (2016) we added a custom hand brake, to have a hold brake, when you need both feet on the ground. Similar to the internal throttle on the right side of the bars, we cut the left bar and added an internal twist control which now runs a remote master cylinder located under the gas tank. The bikes engine is now broken in, and it’s running great!! After this video, which was a day after completion, we’ve went through and worked out all the little “bugs”.
