Motorcycles, once reserved for rebels and aficionados, have now garnered worldwide attention. One particular low-riding custom chopper has even landed itself on the red carpet, making it one of the most photographed bikes in the world and a favorite among Hollywood's elite.
The TrimSpa "Race Car Bike," built by Orange County Choppers for TrimSpa and featured on the Discovery Channel program "American Chopper," is being praised not just for its magnificent ride - it reaches speeds of 180 mph - but also for its dramatic lines and custom details.
"American Chopper" chronicled the creation of the $150,000 bike - detailing the construction of the bike's chrome, diamond plate-bottomed gas and oil tanks, its 160-plus horsepower motor and its NASCAR-inspired exhaust system.
The Race Car Bike's custom design and assembly process was personally overseen by Alex Goen, TrimSpa's chief executive officer. Constructed in three and half weeks, the bike is a tribute to the attractive, curvy and confident people who use the dietary supplement TrimSpa X32, like model Anna Nicole Smith and heavyweight boxer Shannon Briggs.
This fast, exotic and sexy chopper has been attracting everyone from motorcycle devotees and passers-by to photographers and A-list celebrities who wait their turn to sit on it.
TrimSpa's Race Car Bike makes appearances at some very popular venues. During the Video Music Awards Weekend in Miami's South Beach, it was a feature attraction at The Style Villa in the Sagamore Hotel. Celebrities, such as actress and singer Hilary Duff, had photos taken while seated on the bike.
Later that weekend, the Race Car Bike made an appearance on the red carpet at the Jessica and Ashlee Simpson TrimSpa VMA After Party.
