2013 Big Bear Choppers The Sled Chopper X-Wedge[edit | edit source]

The The Sled Chopper X-Wedge from Big Bear Choppers boasts one of the most innovative and modern V-twins available on the market, a 1917cc, fuel-injected, BBC-S&S 117 SMOOTH EFI X-Wedge mated to a six-speed manual transmission with overdrive, that produces 97 horsepower and 153 Nm of torque at the crankshaft. This new engine is one of the few V-twins on the market that conforms to 2010 EPA standards, and still can deliver gut-churning amounts of power.

As its siblings, the X-Wedge suffixed model Sled has a classic custom chopper design, with a stretched frame, custom handlebars, a fat, 300mm rear tire, a stretched front end and custom-designed fenders.
