Sam Nemhes’ $120,000 Yamah Road Star

Custom Road Star by BMS ChoppersAs we said, Sam joined the motorsports business at age 12 sweeping floors at a local shop called R&R Jet Tech. Over the years he continued to work at R&R and after graduating high school and two years of college, he became the GM of two locations.

In 1999 a large Motorsports chain called PowerSports bought R&R. Sam stayed on as the GM for two of their locations. In 1999 he bought his first cruiser, he bought a Yamaha Road Star because he wanted to ride something that he sold in the dealership. Sam then started customizing the Roadie even though the dealership frowned on the practice and thought that the bikes should be left the way they were.

Sam’s bikes have been on numerous front covers including the likes of RoadBike, Crossroads, Hot Action, V-Twin and Kranked magazines. This year he also was selected to be in the 2006 Yamaha Star calendar. Also every year BMS Choppers is asked to be in the Yamaha booths at both Bike Week and Biketoberfest in Daytona. They are also one of the only authorized Yamaha dealers that customize the bikes to this magnitude.
