#1200 SPORTSTER CHOPPER FULL#
As it always goes, one thing lead to another and motor work turns into a full on custom build. After a malfunctioning petcock and open float bowl filled his motor with gas, he decided it was time to take the motor down and freshen it up. Harley Sportster 1200 ChopperĪll that remains mentioning is the air filter, which can be found in Rick’s program in addition to many other designs.1994 Harley-Davidson 1200 Sportster rated asĭiscuss this bike Write a review Such bikes for sale Sell this motorcycle Market value Rate this bike Bike specifications Insurance quotes Tip a friend List related bikesīelow is the riders' rating of the 1994 Harley-Davidson 1200 Sportster motorcycle. Joe Nagler purchased this 2000 Sportster 1200 S and rode it around for over a year in its stock condition. Rick’s windshield not only looks nice, but also tidies up the cockpit. Harley Sportster 1200 ChopperĪ further small detail at the front should be noted.

To avoid further similar problems, Rick’s mechanics also mount the Dirt Track handlebar, which is also made in-house, as well as matching Rick’s grips, which harmonize perfectly with Rick’s new foot controls.

Harley Sportster 1200 ChopperĪlso typical for Rick’s wide tire conversions is that the tire runs absolutely centered in the track, whereby ride performance is hardly altered when compared to stock, which saves sweat and tears when approaching a bend. The best about Rick’s wide tire Sportsters is that they are TÜV approved, and as so often with Rick’s parts, a lot of effort was made so that also these components comply with the strict rules of the German TÜV testers. A real bestseller is the round steel fender, which is mainly being handmade in Baden-Baden with great care. Rick’s offers numerous designs which were especially developed for the Sportsters. Needless to say that also for this there is a solution in the program. Harley Sportster 1200 Chopperīut that’s not the end of it, because the former stock fender of the Forty Eight doesn’t fit the new dimensions any longer either. For this conversion, 3-piece screwed together raven black coated wheels named “Apollo” were chosen, and with a brake disc in matching design, the XL gets a completely new look. Rick’s has a wide portfolio of different wheel designs, which all also fit the Sportsters. Now that the swingarm is widened, the tire would fit, the belt drive is right…but now the tire no longer fits into the stock rim. The offset kit for Sportster models, including a matching cover, is not only useful, but also an optical highlight. The belt drive has to be relocated to the outside since otherwise it would touch the tire, but Rick’s also has a solution for this problem. But, as so often with customizing, one change immediately starts a chain reaction. At the same time the converted stock part gets a beam, which ensures increased torsional stiffness when changing load quickly. For this problem Rick’s Motorcycles widens the swingarm to increase the box swingarm to the necessary width. The most striking conversion measure on this Sportster can be found at the rear end, as Rick’s implanted a fat 240 tire into the small Sportster, however, the stock version doesn’t allow for such an XXL dimension. New wheels with wider tires, new rear, optimized swingarm, new handlebar, and, of course, a first-class design air filter, all Made in Baden-Baden, all from Rick’s workshops.

The results are always very special Sportsters which show a high level of individuality and perfection, while also paying tribute to the customizer.
