It took two years in the making of this chopper says Johnny Martinsson the owner and custom bike builder of this beautiful craftsmanship.
We arrived at Häringe slott yesterday when the evening sun was at it’s fullest and let it’s beams shine on this magnificent masterpiece.
We later sat down and had a interesting conversation, I grew up with a father who was a car dealer so I have a natural passion for motors and this is what Johnny told me about his passion.
The process always starts with a picture in my head, I’ve never been good at drawing so it just pops up. The whole process takes a few months and then I know exactly what to do. To start with there are a couple of key elements to plan in; the motor, frame, wheel size and fork are the main components.
For this chopper I use a S&S Panhead 93″ motor one of the best you can get and a whole lot of other special customized parts that makes this chopper so special.
I want to be unique in my making I always want to take the process one step further in every detail I’m a perfectionist you see and its not often I’m satisfied but this time its near perfection.
