Rucker Performance Introduces 2007 Model Year Line
FORT WORTH, Texas (January 22, 2007) - Rucker Performance, a leading designer and manufacturer of custom and production motorcycles, introduces a complete product showcase of American Muscle and Pro-Mod motorcycles for the 2007 model year.
The Assassin sets the record for 2007, passing EPA Emissions Standards using an S&S T-Series 124 equipped with VFI (Variable Fuel Injection). The addition of the S&S Closed-Loop circuit makes Rucker Performance the only US Manufacturer to offer this engine package standard on an EPA/CARB certified production motorcycle. The Assassin is created out of a carbon fiber composite body that decreases the weight of the bike and increases the durability of the motorcycle. The fuel tank is made out of Super-Form® aluminum used by Boeing, Lockheed, and British Aerospace. The Assassin features an Indy style-cantilever suspension, an all-billet swingarm and solid billet front suspension.
The Predator has a custom fabricated tank and sheet metal integrated body, Accutronix tribal triple trees, Rucker custom side pipes and unique drop seat design. This adrenaline machine has 4.5" ground clearance, 49 degree of rake, 19-inch seat height, custom handlebars and Ness Controls. This motorcycle comes with monster torque, fit and finish of a one-off custom bike and exceptional drag race-inspired performance.
The Vandal is an aggressive American muscle bike with a 330 rear tire, rigid frame, razor front fender and custom forward controls. The Vandal features a powerful 124 cubic inch S&S engine (with a custom option of a 145 cubic inch S&S engine with the Super G twin carburetors), a 6-speed right side transmission, 45 degree rake and a race-inspired inverted front fork.
Signature Rucker Performance motorcycles include top quality components, unique sheet metal and gas tank design and a custom stylized paint package.
"The 2007 Rucker Performance line sets new trends and records in the marketplace as well as responds to what the dealers and customers are looking for this year," Bill Rucker, CEO of Rucker Performance states. "We offer a selection of bikes and design services that exceed the level of quality, performance and innovation in the industry."
Rucker Performance also showcases its Pro-Mod line for 2007. Pre-owned 2006 Harley-Davidson® Road King® Police, Fire and Rescue motorcycles undergo complete facelifts that include upgrades such as a wide tire 200 mm conversion kit (from the standard 130 mm), a strong performance Screamin' Eagle Big Bore 96 cu. in. motor, chrome handlebar package (all handlebar components, grips, switches, housing, brake master cylinder and molded frame neck cover), chrome 18 in. wheels, customized fabrication work (extended fuel tanks, front and rear fenders and saddle bags), a custom fitted seat, painted front end as the color of sheet metal, a headlight molding and a graphics package with Toxic Paint upgrades.
