Hard Knocks Customs Bike Show
April 18, 2016 By
Edge walks us through the concept of the Hard Knocks Custom at the Smoke Out Rally. He created a new style of custom show by walking around awarding the Hard Knock Bike. They then are collected and placed in the Hard Knock Corral. It’s like a Joe’s Bike SHow.
A Biker’s Choice Rep determines which bike will be pulled into the Hard Knock circle and then the Horse Team votes on for the winner. Get Smoke Out Rally details here.
About the Smoke Out
The Smoke Out is about choppers. It is about builders, from professional builders to those bloody-knuckled guys (and ladies) burning the midnight oil in an unheated shed to build a chopper they can call their own. Chops of all makes are featured, American, British, Metric, everything. The event is about riders, cross-town to cross-country in a rainstorm.

Stinsman’s motor, called a Shovester, features a Shovelhead top and Sportster bottom. 500 hours in machine work went into the mil. It’s an interpretation of the 70’s era drag bike. George clipped the tranny and installed a Baker 6. A slick for the rear tire and a custom Chaos Chopper front wheel gives it a down and dirty look. He took home a check for $2,000.
