This custom motorcycle underwent a one-year build in the bobber style that was completed in 2023 and is powered by an 883cc V-twin paired with a hand-shifted five-speed transmission. Dubbed Copperhead Rogue, the hardtail bike is finished in satin black with copper accents and features a TC Bros. springer fork, a peanut-style fuel tank, a hand-tooled black leather seat, a bobbed rear fender, LED lighting, a foot clutch, disc brakes, Y-spoke alloy wheels, a 40mm CV carburetor, a Thunderheart Performance ignition system, and a custom Y-pipe exhaust system. This 883 bobber is now offered on dealer consignment with a clean Wyoming title.

The bike is finished in satin black and features a powder-coated frame as well as a three-gallon peanut-style fuel tank with copper leaf skull-and-snake graphics. The bobbed rear fender is powder-coated, the hand-tooled leather solo seat features copper rivets and a skull-and-snake motif, and the oval fuel tank is hooked up to braided copper lines. Additional equipment includes a wrinkle-finish LED headlight, a side-mounted LED taillight/license-plate bracket assembly, and a side stand.

Y-spoke alloy wheels are powder-coated satin black and wrapped in Shinko SR777 H.D. whitewall tires measuring 130/70-18″ up front and 160/70-17″ at the rear. Suspension is provided by a powder-coated 3″-under TC Bros. springer fork with a copper-plated triple clamp, springs, and rocker plates as well as dual springs under the hinged seat. Braking is accomplished through single drilled discs at both ends.

A satin black handlebar secured by 2″ risers carries an underbar mirror, an internal throttle sleeve, and black soda-bottle-style grips. Indicator lamps for high beam, neutral gear selection, and oil pressure are inset atop the headlight bucket. The bike is not equipped with an odometer or other instrumentation, though it has been ridden approximately five miles since completion of the build. True mileage is unknown.

The 883cc Sportster V-twin features black wrinkle-finished primary and camshaft covers as well as black cylinders, cylinder heads, and upper rocker boxes. Copper-plated embellishments include the pushrod tubes and the lower rocker boxes in addition to the derby and ignition timing covers, the latter of which features custom skull-and-snake engraving. The engine has been rebuilt with a replacement crankshaft flywheel assembly and is equipped with a 40mm CV carburetor and intake manifold adapter, a Rough Crafts round air cleaner, a Thunderheart Performance EA-5012 ignition system, vintage-look braided ignition wires, an electric starter, an AGM sealed battery, and a custom dual exhaust system consisting of 2″ Y pipes with titanium heat wrap and slash-cut turn-out tips.

Power is sent to the rear wheel through an enclosed primary chain and a wet clutch with Barnett carbon-fiber friction discs and an extra plate as well as a hand-shifted five-speed transmission and a Lowbrow Customs drive chain conversion with a tensioner. A clutch foot pedal is situated on the left side of the bike, and shifting is via a walking-cane-style lever with a copper-plated snake-head handle mounted on the same side

The bike is listed as an assembled motorcycle on the Wyoming title, a redacted photo of which can be viewed in the gallery.
