Kit Bike If you are building a kit bike using a WCC frame there is some useful information here.
Wow, this is a joke. It's not a how to This book is not a how to, it's a 143 pages of telling you that you should only buy West Coast Choppers parts and a list of other high dollar parts from suppliers.It tells a little about paint prep, but nothing about the things a person will encounter building a bike.Nothing what so ever, read this and you will think lay the parts on the floor and they will just jump into one piece. Wow,this is BS! Watch the bike build shows on TV and get 100 times more info.This was publish to take atvantage of the jump on the Jesse train. I would love to hear his true thoughts. Don't waste your money.
A chopper builder gives it a thumbs up I've built choppers from scratch, and I've built a chopper kit bike. Both projects would have been much more successful had I had a book like this. This is a useful book whether you are building a kit bike from Jesse James or if you are building any other kit, or even if you are building a chopper from scratch. there is tons of useful information here, and the photos show you how not to make a lot of the mistakes I made.
