The customized LSC chopper has a hardtail frame.

The basis for the LSC is a hardtail frame with 4-inch stretch, 8-inch rise, and 38-degree rake in the neck. Triple trees add another four degrees, for a total of 42 degrees of fork rake. Forks are 12-inch-over telescopics, and combine with the tall frame for an extreme stance. A 124-cubic-inch S&S engine is fitted to this example, but 107- and 113-cubic-inch versions are also available. The 6-speed transmission has right-side belt drive.

The wheels shown are AIH's Lonestars; their design is echoed in the brake rotors and drive pulley. Two features of the LSC not found on many choppers are the strutless rear fender, which provides a cleaner appearance, and dual front brakes for better stopping power.

Arched chrome bars hold the strutless rear
fender and turn signals, the latter required of
factory bikes in many states.

It may be a "factory" bike, but the LSC boasts
plenty of custom touches, such as the sculpted
front and rear fenders. The LSC's slender oil
tank allows a lower seat height.

front fender
Dual front disc brakes are a welcome sight
on a chopper with 124 cubic inches of power. Note
the duplication of the wheel pattern in the disc hub.
