Big Bear Choppers Bear Choppers Athena 100 Carb

The 2009 Big Bear Choppers Athena 100 Carb shares much of its DNA with the EFI version, but with a carbureted 1638cc (100 cubic inch) engine. This powerplant delivers a substantial 149.2 Nm (110 ft-lbs) of torque, ensuring strong acceleration and effortless cruising. The 6-speed transmission allows for precise gear selection. Its low 508mm (20-inch) seat height emphasizes the bike's stretched-out chopper aesthetic. Like its EFI sibling, the Athena 100 Carb tips the scales at 317.5 kg (700 lbs), requiring a confident hand. Stopping duties are handled by a single front disc brake with a PM 4-piston caliper. The BBC Smooth Mount Hidden Axle front suspension contributes to the bike's sleek appearance. A slightly larger 16.55 liter (4.37 US gallons) fuel tank provides a bit more range compared to some other choppers. This model caters to riders who prefer the simplicity and feel of a carbureted engine, valuing the direct connection between throttle and power delivery. The Athena 100 Carb is for those who want a head-turning chopper that offers a raw and engaging riding experience, prioritizing style and individuality.
