Santiago Choppers is calling for non-profit groups around the country to participate in its 1st Annual "Choppers for Charity" program.

The Tampa, FL based chopper builder is looking to start a new tradition by donating a free fully custom chopper to a non-profit group. The winning non-profit can then use the chopper to raise funds through a raffle, auction, or use it to draw attention at shows.

Their new "Choppers for Charity" program will run each year during Biketoberfest®. A special press conference will be set up to announce the winning non-profit group, and to unveil the anticipated design of the chopper.

Any U.S. based non-profit group is eligible to win. To enter next year's drawing, the group must submit an application between April 1, 2006 and July 31, 2006. The application must explan how they plan to use the chopper to help them with with cause. To apply, request an application by e-mailing Santiago Choppers at: application@ChoppersforCharity.com

Santiago Choppers has been building choppers in the Tampa, FL area for ten years, and will soon be debuting a new line of custom motorcycles priced to compete with Harleys.

Pricing begins at $19,000.00 for a bike with an 88ci engine, and goes up from there with larger engine sizes.

There are eight models altogether to fit various preferences, including choppers, bobbers and trikes. Currentlty available are the Minos Prostreet, Minos Chopper, Bobber Softail, Bobber FL, Pscylebilly, Trike 39, The Trike, and Black Ink.

The company is marketing their new line of affordable customs on the standpoint that you can get an eye-catching custom for less than what you'd pay for a stock Harley, and yet still get the same size engine.

Santiago Choppers will be showing their new line of bikes at Biketoberfest in Daytona Oct. 20-23, 2005.

Check out their "Bobber FL" model below, and note the gatlin-gun exhaust pipes!
