Back On The Road - Midwest Motorcycle Supply

Itching to get back in the saddle after the ‘07 crash,
opportunity was drawing near. During a vacation in
Florida Gypsy looked up one of her bike-building friends
she hadn’t seen in twenty years and found him still
building bikes that perfectly matched her style. As a
matter of fact, they so much shared the same aesthetic
for customs that Gypsy followed the build by phone and
photo from her home in Louisiana as Marcus did a ground
up custom build, including the special hand controls to
accommodate Gypsy’s prosthetic.
Marcus Orabona of Trailer Trash Choppers crafted a great
ride dubbed “Chump Change” , a great follow up to a
chopper called “Spare Change”, both bikes featured in
Barnett’s Magazine. Marcus used an Ultima 107 C.I.
Engine, Ultima® Polished 6 Speed Transmission, Ultima®
Oil Tank on a Paughco wishbone frame with 30
degree rake, no stretch, & fishtail pipes sourced from
Midwest Motorcycle Supply.
Gypsy is stepping up to an Ultima
107 C.I. power plant which is mated to an
Ultima 6 Speed tranny to insure smooth
shifting with those custom clutch controls.
She’s ready to take back the roads of Louisiana.
