Description
A Red Beauty
-----
This motocycle had such a nice slim body, elegant lines and outstanding red color. It's certainly not the usual one. It's unique, cool looking, simply awesome motorcycle, a superbike.

I will appreciate all comments helping me to determine the type (name) of this wonderful vehicle.

Ausra, this is what's known in the U.S. as a 'chopper'. This one is 'custom' built, for most a 'chopper' is made with scavenged parts, many times as an initiation into a motorcycle club. This bike has a 'rigid' frame, meaning no springs on the rear wheel, The only thing that looks 'stock' on this machine is the engine block, there is no telling if it has been 'souped up'. It's a Harley-Davidson Evolution motor as far as I can tell. They can be very beautiful bikes, and they can go fast, but, the handling and ride are atrocious, they are meant to go in a straight line and don't turn well, and as I said earlier there are no springs on the rear, so you fell every bump in the road.

Thank you very much Keith for your elaborate and informative comment. A "custom" may explain why I couldn't find anything like this when searching online to name it.
