The Honda chopper concept has been around for a long time now so perhaps you are wondering why this may even be a worthy news item? Well, that is because things have changed with the new style VTX range of motorcycles from Honda. They are completely different from the old style machines that Honda became well known for. The Honda VTX is modern, light, easy to handle and very comfortable on a long ride. And now there is a huge range of custom motorcycle accessories available so that you can convert that standard Honda motorcycle into a Honda chopper with some extra chrome, a nice set of loud exhaust pipes and of course, the raked triple trees and fork tube extensions on the front end for that classic Honda chopper look.


The old school Honda chopper style of the 1970's has been dramatically updated for the new millennium with the Honda VTX 1300 chopper kits and custom parts available today. This fast and light motorcycle will outperform many competitors and still maintain an economical stance when it is time to fill up at the nearest gas station.

These chopper kits contain all the necessary parts you need to make the chopper conversion and include a choice of 9, 14, or 18 degrees of rake over stock and all the required components such as extended fork tubes, chrome steel trees, steel braided brake line and extended speedometer cable. The 9° raked with 4" over stock fork tubes adds 6" to the overall length of your Honda motorcycle, the 14° rake with 8" over stock fork tubes adds 10" to the overall length of your motorcycle and the really radical 18° rake with 10" over stock fork tubes adds 14" to the overall length of your standard Honda motorcycle for that extreme Honda chopper look.
