2015
The 2015 Big Bear Choppers Redemption 111 Carb represents a significant entry in the custom cruiser market, continuing the brand's tradition of bold, low-slung machines. This particular model year, equipped with a carbureted engine, appeals to riders who appreciate a more traditional fuel delivery system and a raw, visceral riding experience. In its segment, the Redemption 111 Carb competed directly with other high-end custom manufacturers like American IronHorse and some of the more custom-oriented Harley-Davidson CVO models, offering a distinctive alternative for those seeking exclusivity and a powerful presence.
At the heart of the 2015 Redemption 111 Carb is a potent V2, four-stroke engine displacing 1819.1 ccm (111.00 cubic inches). This substantial powerplant generates 115.8 HP (84.5 kW) and an impressive 166.5 Nm (17.0 kgf-m or 122.8 ft.lbs) of torque, providing ample thrust for highway cruising and assertive acceleration. The carbureted setup ensures a classic V-twin rumble and a direct connection to the engine's power delivery. Despite its significant output, the motorcycle maintains a dry weight of 319.0 kg (703.3 pounds), contributing to its stable road manners. Fuel capacity stands at 14.67 litres (3.88 US gallons), offering a reasonable range for its class.
Riding the Redemption 111 Carb is characterized by its distinct cruiser ergonomics. The exceptionally low seat height of 508 mm (20.0 inches), at its lowest adjustable setting, allows riders of varying statures to flat-foot comfortably, instilling confidence at stops. The stretched-out riding position, typical of a custom chopper, positions the rider with a commanding view of the road. While not designed for aggressive cornering, the Redemption 111 Carb provides a stable and predictable ride, prioritizing comfort and style. Its low-slung chassis and raked-out front end contribute to a unique aesthetic and a relaxed, long-distance cruising posture.
The Big Bear Choppers Redemption 111 Carb is aimed squarely at the rider who desires a bespoke, high-performance cruiser with a strong individual statement. It caters to those who appreciate the mechanical simplicity and auditory feedback of a carbureted V-twin, valuing tradition and a more direct connection to their machine. This motorcycle is for the enthusiast who wants to stand out from the crowd and is drawn to the allure of a custom-built American chopper. It is a motorcycle designed for open road enjoyment and making a powerful visual statement wherever it goes.
