| Many Dutch chopper enthusiasts will recognize this beauty from the posters hanging over their beds! This bike was one of the best customized motorcycles in Holland, (that says a lot doens't it!!!) and even won 1st prize at the 1982 choppershow "King Blits" held at the RAI in Amsterdam. I don't know the whole history of the bike, but the builder Frans de Weerdt is still working and painting cars and motorcycles to this day. |
