American IronHorse - All Models

Company History

Founded in 1995 in Fort Worth, American IronHorse rode the 1990s–2000s custom boom with production choppers that combined boutique looks and factory reliability. Long rakes, big V-twins, deep paint, and billet detail defined the aesthetic, while standardized frames, wiring, and brake packages made dealer service straightforward compared to one-off customs. AIH cultivated an upscale ownership experience—demo days, apparel, and a sense of community—while exporting the Texas take on custom culture nationwide. The 2008 downturn and tightening credit struck the segment hard, and AIH ultimately shuttered, but its bikes remain fixtures at shows and weekend meet-ups. Historically, American IronHorse captured a moment when American riders wanted drama with dependability: a bike that looked hand-built yet started every Saturday. The brand professionalized the ‘factory custom’ model—quality control, warranties, and parts pipelines—setting expectations that influence today’s boutique OEMs. In the used market, clean AIHs still draw fans for their stance and for a riding experience that is more composed than the silhouette suggests.
