V8 Choppers’ Amusement Park on Wheels

Power junkies are never, ever satisfied. There are built-up Harleys out there putting out insane amounts of power in naturally-aspirated form and sometimes with a healthy shot of nitrous just to add insult to injury. Taking it a step further, there are turbocharged and supercharged versions (still some with a shot of NOS just because) that’ll peel your eyelids back at the tiniest twist of the throttle, but for some individuals (and you know who you are), that’s just not enough.

And that’s where companies like V8 Choppers out of Miami, Oklahoma, step up and take serious motorcycle power to a whole new level along with a sense of style and finish you can’t find anywhere else. To paraphrase a vegetable juice commercial, I imagine those same power junkies at some point after building their V-twins up and it still wasn’t enough realized, “I coulda had a V8!”
