The Horse- Backstreet Choppers #67/April 2007


You can always count on The Horse for kick-ass choppers, a sense of humor and hot girls. Issue #67/April 2007 does not disappoint.

This month starts off with a piece about making your own seat pans. Everyone has an ass and riding is easier sitting down. And you need a nice seat to top it off so head on over to Duane Ballard Custom Leather. This man does work that will make you cry and there are some beautiful examples pictured. I was floored by the Boardtracker 67 seat and I really want the Rat Fink seat(s) on my next bike.

The bike features are grade-A as usual. Chopper Dave’s Knucklehead is sight for sore eyes. It’s clean and simple. Chopper Dave won’t let you down. Mikko’s rigid Knucklehead is rough and ready. Mikko won’t have to clean the chrome. Cause there isn’t any! Me likey lot! Steven A. Smith’s cover bike is ok but the girl makes up for it. Who needs a sidecar when you can use an oil drum! Sweeden’s Peter Forsberg(not the hockey player) added one to his flattie and now can take his friends wherever he goes. There is even a vintage feature on a former ISCA National winner.

Event coverage includes the 3rd Annual Tribute to Indian Larry and Phil Peterson’s Annual Poker run. The girl on the first page of coverage scares me.
