Sturgis Road Show In Harrisburg, PA (Part 3) Bike Show Winners.

Building on already early season successes of the Custom Chrome International Bike Show Series, Kundratic Kustoms was proudly named the inaugural Sturgis Road Show Champion today with their highly innovative bike, Boardtracker. Featuring front and rear perimeter braking, an S&S Knuckle motor, and many handbuilt components, Kundratic Kustoms Boardtracker was a show stopper from day one. Finishing second in the Championship Class was Independent Cycle East’s creation Hammered with third going to MD Custom Choppers with their chopper, Road Kill.

“So many great bikes from the Mid Atlantic and East Coast were entered,” says Sturgis Road Show partner John Detrick, “We knew this area was a hot bed for cool motorcycles and the Championship proved it. All weekend visitors were treated to some of the best bikes and custom builders in our area.

    Ahem, Keefer’s bike is basically stock FLATHEAD 45 two-wheeler. The white chopper looks like it’s had some hard miles on it, which I like. And the rocker just has a bunch of bolt on stuff. I shoulda entered my ’40 Flathead “74” [1940 engine {intake/exhaust been flowed, aluminum heads been milled, 3-angle valve job, “98 Evo CV carb, S&S air cleaner, K&N filter, 12-volt, solid state electrics, Batt-Pac battery, 45 high-flow oil-pump} tranny {rachet-top, 26 tooth front sprocket-49 rear, primary has Shovelhead nylon chain adjuster set-up in a TIN primary with the mounting for it welded on frame, reverse shift pattern with first up, the rest you can SLAM down, it’s quicker that way ya know}, ’54 Panhead rigid frame {with the sidehack mounts re-weld on}, ’77 Super-Glide 4” over front-end/front ‘an rear wheels with disc brakes}, Blue with Black flames/gold pin-stripe, floorboards, handmade bitch-stick with the ‘ol lady’s braided hair hangin’ off it, ’64 Chrysler speedo {don’t work, jus’ fills the hole}, Baby apes, 4 switchable blue bullets {bottom one’s are dual-element}, three do-wa ditty bags {fer yer stuff}, handmade 45 degree upsweeps with mufflers {motors run better with back-pressure}, and a lick-’em ‘an stick-’em seat. Bought it as a basket case over 35 years ago fer $700. bucks! Won second-place at the ThunderDome/Iron Horse show two years ago [of course I rode it out to Sturgis with everything I needed to survive bungied on {tent, sleepin’ bag, clothes, TOOLS/SPARE PARTS, food, water, etc.}, put on about 2,000+ miles]. You wanna talk ‘ol skool CUSTOM!! Wiz

    What traits constitute “performance” in the Performance Class”?

  9. 9 Brian Marion Apr 18th, 2011 at 1:00 pm

    These bike shows just leave you going WTF did the judges see and with no disrespect to the winner, Jeff’s bike should have won this show hands down!!

    IMO Kessel’s bike was in a class by itself…..Jeff has to be one of the most down to earth builders in the industry……the detail on this bike is incredible!! To me only Goldammer bikes are is in this class

  12. 12 Brian Kundratic Apr 18th, 2011 at 3:31 pm

    There was some really nice work entered into the show, congrats to everyone! It’s cool to see what people are building and what’s going on outside of my area. Thanks to Custom Chrome & the Sturgis Road Show for bringing an event like this so close to Baltimore – hope it’ll be back!

    Great job by all. the kundratic bike is a classic, the pics dont do it justice. those who can, do it those who cant, troll the web and tell everyone how much better they are

  14. 14 live2rideaglide Apr 19th, 2011 at 1:22 pm

    If this bike had not won , the planets would have misaligned. Ain’t enough o’s in cool to describe this beauty. It’s old but new classic and racy. Any knuckle should win anytime. We are not worthy.
