Testimony
for customer
Eric Kuhn
I became aware of Chopper City Customs when I saw one of Dave’s bikes in
Street Chopper magazine. His “Softail from Hell” creation was featured
and the article mentioned it was built for a customer who was 6’ 7”. I
too am 6’ 7” and at the time was tired of trying to fit on a stock
production type motorcycle. I saw the intricate sheet metal of the
Softail from Hell bike and fell in love with the bike’s lines. It was
at that time I decided I could not only get a bike that would be custom
built to fit me, but was extremely cutting edge in design and
performance as well. I called Dave and the deal was done.
One of the things I liked most
about my experience with Dave and Sherry at Chopper City Customs was
Dave’s ability to incorporate my vision of the bike into his creative
design. I can honestly say the bike turned out better than I ever had
imagined and I was completely blown away when I picked it up. To this
day, I cannot leave the bike anywhere because not only does it draw a
crowd but I am bombarded by questions concerning where it was made, what
the dimensions are, etc. On one occasion, I rode the bike to a local
bar here in Wichita, Kansas. By the time I was able to actually go in
and get a drink it was closing time! I literally sat by my bike for
hours talking to people and answering questions. It was an awesome
experience.
Perhaps the most enjoyable
experience I had with Chopper City Customs occurred in Daytona Beach,
Florida during Biketoberfest. Dave and Sherry were set up on Beach
Street at Carl’s Speed Shop and asked me to drop by and show off the
bike, along with the other Chopper City bikes on display that year.
When I arrived, the streets and sidewalks were packed with bikes and
people. Dave called on his “crew” to block everyone and everything
while I backed my bike up on the sidewalk to park at the Chopper City
display area. I felt like a celebrity, but the bike was the real
attraction. The whole scene made me think of Moses parting the Red Sea
with Dave being Moses.
Dave and Sherry have always
been available to me for any questions or concerns I have ever had about
my bike. If I needed something, it was a done deal. To this day, the
bike runs like a top and continues to win awards and trophies in
contests in Kansas. My bike is shown on the Chopper City web site as
Eric’s Chopper. Check out the iron cross sheet metal design!
Peace.
