NEW VIPER MOTORCYCLE ON VIEW FOR THE FIRST TIME ... SATURDAY OCT. 6!

 The Exclusive West Coast Debut of the new Viper Motorcycle
will be held at Autobooks-Aerobooks on Saturday October 6 ... This is an
exciting new two-wheel street ride that is not for the faint of heart nor
the budget-bound wage slave ... This is a spectacular set of
let-it-all-hang-out, son(s) of a galoot, Hollywood motorbikes from the
wilds of Minnesota ... See this sucker first at Autobooks-Aerobooks!

AND NOW ... HERE'S WHAT THE MAKERS (MODESTLY) HAVE TO SAY FOR THEMSELVES:

"Viper bikes are made for cruising, not kickstands. Because Vipers are high performance motorcycles designed and manufactured of for affluent enthusiasts seeking uncompromising performance and cutting edge technology, over 80% of a Viper is created with parts custom manufactured by Viper, for Viper, right down to the wiring harness.

Our motorcycles are hand-built by technicians and craftsmen. This hand-craftsmanship delivers superior finishes and unique design details. We don’t use off the shelf parts and try to camouflage them with a shiny coat of paint like the kit companies. Many of a Viper’s component parts are billet aluminum, machined in-house, using distinctive patented technology: Viper engines – 115 to 152 cubic inches, big bore/short stroke, Viper air-ride suspension, Viper Rigid Drive system.

Real custom – real reliability. We deliver engineering and design solutions that mass production would find impossible.

And Viper is one of only 3 real American cruiser manufacturers.

The competition brags about their paint, their chrome and the model who sat on their bike in their last ad – the things that look good when your motorcycle is standing still, never their engines. Vipers aren’t meant to sit still, and at the heart and soul of every bike is the Viper engine. The kit companies order their engines off the shelf, generic cookie cutter “clone” motors made to fit into every bike on the planet.

Sculpted from solid billet, with a big bore and short stroke, Viper engines provide incredible power combined with an unbelievably smooth ride. Designed for performance, they produce 30% less heat than competitive air-cooled v-twin engines. Good looks, attitude, power and above all, reliable - built to make bar bikes jealous and leave ‘em standing still.

Viper bikes are made for cruising, not kickstands. Over 80% of a Viper is created with parts custom manufactured by Viper, for Viper, right down to the wiring harness. Not some crap off a shelf in a warehouse that the kit companies throw on and camouflage with shiny paint. Many of a Viper’s component parts are billet aluminum, machined in-house, using distinctive patented technology: Viper 152 cubic inch, big bore/short stroke engines. Viper air-ride suspension for rider versatility. Viper Rigid Drive (VRD) final drive system putting power to the wheel. Viper Integrated Isometric Dampening System harnessing the 152 power plant without objection. Real custom – real reliability. In fact, one of only 3 real American cruiser manufacturers. Now go down to your local kit bike dealer and ask them how many “custom” parts they have..."
