Rucker Copperhead

Motorcycle Consumer News

September 2004 - Bill Rucker of Rucker Performance in Fort Worth, Texas has unveiled the first of his new line of custom motorcycles, the Copperhead. With a 124 c.i. S&S engine and a six-speed transmission, the base price for the Copperhead will be $34,995.

While we can’t deny the stylish custom treatment, it is a little hard to swallow. The press release claims that this bike has “better handling, stability, comfort and ergonomics” than most other custom bikes. Especially when the designer makes claims that the extremely lowered seat provides “better handling.” Looking at the picture, it is a bit difficult to imagine turning this bike at anything over parking lot speeds.
