Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament Prize is Custom Chopper

Texas Hold’em Poker players will need more than a poker face to take home one of the largest working trophies the game has ever seen. One tournament winner at the Horseshoe Riverboat Casino in Indiana will get a custom chopper built by Derby City Customs.

Owners Jeremy and Jason Cantwell beat out Orange County Choppers for the job. “The casino wanted the bike in time for the new year,” said Jeremy Cantwell. “It will be on display at the casino until three thousand players compete over the course of ten nights in September 2008 to win this bike. Pros from the World Series of Poker are expected to play in this Texas Hold’em tournament.”

The Derby City Customs brothers built the custom chopper with a casino theme. “We used real poker chips and cards on the bike,” said Cantwell. “The alligator seat has a horseshoe cut into it and it’s accented with real gold horseshoes.”

The airbrush is by On Point and the actual base coat is laid on by Big Ed Wayne. “It’s painted with candy green over pagan gold flake. It is one gorgeous bike, it’s reflection in the sunlight is hard to describe, but it really picks up light.”

The hand built rigid frame is molded completely from metal. “The tank and rear fender are molded into the bike for one smooth continuous look,” said Cantwell. We set up the front end with an inverted fork with wheels from RC Components.

The bike is equipped with a six speed transmission with lots of chrome. A 113 S&S engine is a lot of motor for the custom chopper. A nice wide 300 rear tire also puts the rubber to the ground.

“K&N Engineering makes all of our filters for our custom bikes, it’s the filter of choice” said Cantwell. “K&N makes the best filters on the market and a bike of this caliber deserves only the best.” The Cantwell’s designed a custom a 2008 Suzuki GSX1400 Hayabusa for K&N Engineering which was on display in the K&N booth at SEMA (Specialty Equipment Marketing Association) 2007.  A video of this bike is also available on K&N's video web page.

Derby City Customs next project will be a Ryder Cup custom bike which will be raffled away during the Kentucky Derby Festival.

Air Filter for Volkswagen Polo, Golf, Skoda Roomster, Octavia and the Seat Altea and Cordoba
K&N Engineering has designed and manufactured replacement air filters for over 38 years. K&N offers over 2,400 high-flow air filters that fit most modern passenger vehicles. Our air filters are manufactured to achieve an optimal blend of high air flow, filtration efficiency, durability and dust capacity.

K&N has designed a new replacement air filter, 33-2920, that fits several Skoda Fabia, Octavia and Roomster models, Volkswagen Golf, Caddy and Polo models and Seat Ibiza, Altea and Cordoba models. These vehicles are found mostly in Europe. Detailed applications are listed below.

Unlike your old disposable filter, K&N's 33-2920 uses a unique pleated design with oiled cotton fabric layers sandwiched between two layers of epoxy-coated aluminum wire screens. The filter captures airborne dirt particles while allowing virtually unrestricted air flow into the engine. These dirt particles cling to the outside of the filter and become part of the filtering media.

The simple drop-in design makes it easy to add performance. Simply remove the disposable air filter and replace it with the new 33-2920, replacement air filter. This washable, reusable, high flow panel filter is designed to increase horsepower and acceleration, while providing excellent filtration.

The 33-2920, like all of K&N's replacement air filters for street vehicles, is covered by our famous K&N Million-Mile Limited Warranty. K&N Air Filters are washable and reusable. It will be the last air filter your car will ever need.
