About Us

Company Bio

Northside Choppers started in 2003. We have appeared on TV shows such as: American Thunder, Corbin’s Ride On, and Motorsports Unlimited. Our bikes over the years have been photographed in magazines, such as: Iron Horse, Easy Rider, and Street Chopper.  Our bikes have competed in many custom motorcycle shows and always win first place.

We are SAE & NHTSA certified motorcycle manufacturers with our own VIN numbers and titles, and also meet all of 2006's new EPA laws. This makes it easier to insure, pass state laws requirements, safety inspections, as well as resale.

Northside Choppers is a proud member of A.B.A.T.E., A.M.A., and I.A.F.E.

We make our own frames, tanks, fenders, exhaust, handlebars, etc., all in-house. By making our own parts it sets us apart from other custom bike shops who use "out of the catalog" parts and just throw them on a bike and call it custom built. Not us. We work with our clients every step of the way; via phone conversations and updated digital images sent by the Internet. Our clients will get progress updates of their bike being built. Hence, insures the customer’s bike is tailored to exactly the way they want it before it rolls out of our shop. All of Northside Choppers motorcycles come with a two year warranty.
