ABOUT THE MOTORCYCLE (FROM HOT BIKE MAGAZINE, JUNE, 2006):

Bobby Cazzani began with a piece of chrome-moly tubing that was run through a rolling pipe press to give it an elliptical shape like a football. From there he welded up the rest of the frame, and when he was finished he had the basis for a rigid chopper with 10 extra inches in the downtube, 8 more in the backbone, and 45 degrees of rake in the neck. To add to the chopper profile, a 20-inch-over Ness frontend was bolted to the neck.
Some people have said you can't have two-spoke wheels on a motorcycle, but Jimmy Cazzani proved them wrong with his New England Patriots logo design. To ensure the wheels would hold up under the abuse of the road, the design was sent over to Greg at Ego Tripp Wheels, where they machined the wheels to not only look cool but to be safe and reliable as well. The front sports a 21-incher wrapped in Avon rubber, while out back an 18x8.5-inch rim stuffed inside a 250mm Avon helps the rigid ride a little more smoothly. While Ego Tripp was machining the wheels, Bobby also had them cut a set of rotors to match. Then, to help bring the bike to a quick stop, he bolted on billet six-piston racing calipers at the front and rear.
To make sure Adam's bike would have plenty of reliable power, Bobby bolted a 110ci RevTech motor, backed up by a RevTech six-speed transmission, between the framerails and then used a Primo clutch and 3-inch open belt primary to help transfer power to the rear wheel. Knowing a chopper just wouldn't be a chopper without a set of loud pipes, Bobby felt a set of 187 pipes from LA Choppers was the perfect choice. He capped off the Mikuni carb with a velocity stack from West Coast Choppers.
When it came to the sheetmetal, Bobby really wanted to bring the chopper look and football theme together. First, in a nod to the old chopper days, he fabricated a mini front fender but added his own twist by shaping it in the form of a football. Next, he completed the chopper profile by stretching a Custom Chrome gas tank 8 inches to match the backbone. Then, in a real feat of fabricating genius, Bobby welded and molded into the frame a very trick oil tank. It took several attempts, but the final shape of the tank was a spitting image of the Patriots logo.
Bobby finished things up by fabricating a custom set of handlebars featuring Jay Brake hand controls (minus the front brake lever) and an internal throttle. Instead of applying the front brake with a hand lever, Bobby set up the front and rear brakes to work off one of his Unison braking systems, utilizing a NASCAR proportioning valve manipulated by Accutronix foot controls. Between the triple-trees he bolted on one of his H.I.D. headlamp systems featuring a Bosch amplifier, which provides plenty of visibility at night. Last, Bobby had Barrett Designs cut and form a piece of leather to fit the carbon-fiber seat pan he made. The leather was then dyed metallic silver and stitched to look like a football.
