The 2008 GTX X-Wedge from Big Bear Choppers sports the latest in V-twins, a fuel-injected, 1917cc, BBC-S&S 117 SMOOTH EFI X-Wedge powerplant mated to a six-speed manual transmission that can produce 97 horsepower and 153 Nm of torque at the crankshaft. This new V-twin is one of the few engines out there that conform with the EPA standards of the time, and also have an asphalt-wrinkling power output.
As its EFI sibling, the X-Wedge GTX addresses riders who want to go the extra mile atop their custom machine, and comes standard with an auxiliary fuel tank under the seat, a two-up seat with passenger backrest and hard, spacious saddlebags, that do not interrupt the smoothly-flowing lines of this trademark Big Bear Choppers machine.
