American Ironhorse 2007 Texas Chopper

American Ironhorse 2007 Texas Chopper

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

American IronHorse was an American motorcycle manufacturer that was founded in 1995 by Tim Edmundson and Bill Rucker.[1] At one time, AIH was the largest factory producer of custom motorcycles in the USA. Their 224,000-square-foot (20,800 m2) factory was located in Fort Worth, Texas, and housed the complete manufacturing process under a single roof. Although most (305) parts for the bikes were made in-house, such as the seats and wheels, all American IronHorse motorcycles were built with S&S engines and were assembled in-house. In Spring 2008, American Ironhorse ceased production on all cycles and most company assets were liquidated at auction

I have owned a few of these great motorcycles. I started with a 2004 and than a 2005 and now ride a 2006 with the rare chrome package. (more…)

Motorcycle History

American Motorcycle History

Motorcycles vary considerably depending on the task they are designed for, such as long distance travel, navigating congested urban traffic, cruising, sport and racing, or off-road conditions.


Motorcycles are one of the most affordable forms of motorized transport in many parts of the world and, for most of the world’s population, they are also the most common type of motor vehicle. There are around 200 million motorcycles (including mopeds, motor scooters, motorized bicycles, and other powered two and three-wheelers) in use worldwide, or about 33 motorcycles per 1000 people. This compares to around 590 million cars, or about 91 per 1000 people. (more…)

Veterans Day Tribute 2014

 Veterans Day 2014

From Steve W.:

To any that speak against these true Veterans and Heroes that have fought the fight their Commanders sent them to fight, I can honestly say, I don’t deserve such attributes that so many give our Men and Women of the Armed Services deserve, for I have never fought in War, I have never dawned the uniform of such Brave Souls. But every time I see one of these young men and women, I do my best to tell them how much I appreciate them and what they have done for their Country for I am a Patriot and I know where my freedom and liberty comes from. I know in my heart that if there were to be a time in the days of Our Liberty and Freedom that if our leaders, ever, betrayed us and tried to turn the arms of Freedom upon us, those young Men and Women would defend you and I, would defend those that take their sacrifice for granted, they would defend ALL upon this land. Have some decency in appreciating those that pay the price for you to insult their actions. That’s freedom, that my friend is liberty!

From Julieanne F.:

Today, we live in a generation where the Great Wars are scarely touched upon in schools across the country. (more…)
