Speed Demon: A Chopper Profile

Due to the high caliber of Dave Dupor's custom creations, clients often come back for a second helping. Such is the case with Speed Demon, as this is the second chopper Dave's DD Custom Cycles has built for the owner.

A stretched War Eagle frame with swingarm rear suspension holds two-inch-over Mean Street telescopic forks. Weld Wheels are found at both ends, each holding a matching disc brake; in back, the disc rides inboard of the drive pulley. A Rivera 6-speed right-side-drive transmission and 124-cubic-inch S&S engine exhaling through Martin Bros. pipes complete the chassis picture.

A fuel tank stretched to match the elongated frame is joined by formed fenders and oil tank to achieve a custom look, and they're all covered in silver paint accented with an exotic flame motif. The end result is a custom chopper that may well bring its two-time owner back for more.

Speed Demon Chopper Pictures

The second chopper built for its owner by Dave Dupor, Speed Demon represents every racer's dream. Below are more pictures and details of this fast chopper.

Speed Demon has a steady chrome finish adding cohesiveness from its headlight to the fender.

“Peaked” sculpting at the trailing edges of Speed Demon's frame and exhaust pipes mirror the contours of the fender.
