In the tradition of the now famous Breitling Bike Cafe Racer, Motorcycle Builder/Artist Alan Bernard of Santiago Chopper has done it again. The beautiful machine that you are looking at here is another genius cafe' build and newest production bike to be added to the Santiago Chopper Line up. It's called The Norley. This bike is much more than just a combination of two motorcycle industry greats, Harley and Norton. The bike's power plant is that of a Harley Davidson Sportster 1200. If you want Alan to custom build you one, he can also use a 883 Motor, and a Buell motor ('86-'03). The entire front end of this bike including the wheel is off a Paul Smart Ducati. The rear wheel is from Storz Performance. The tank is from JW Cycles, and the seat is a Santiago Chopper/JW Cycles Hybrid. if you want one of these bikes, you can get one for 19,500.00. If you provide the donor Sporty, it will run you 14.500.00. You can order a custom 'frame kit' that includes the frame,gas tank, seat,oil tank, swing arm and rear set for only 5600.00. You can see more images, and get more info on the brand new site http://www.norleycaferacer.com/ To get in touch with Alan just give him or Christine a call at 813.677.1676
