Hi all, this is my first post. Been working on my partner’s XS chop over lockdown. Had the project for several years, but being at home let me crack on...
Hopefully there’s some pictures as well...
So far the frame has been hard tailed, springer forks fitted (after cutting the headstock to suit), Electronic ignition etc. from Heiden Tuning. Fitted saddle type seat (actually a designer drum stool seat). Wassell tank with twin taps. Custom rear mudguard. Harley front wheel. Custom rear wheel using original drum hub with new ally rim and stainless spokes from Devon Rim Company. Custom wiring loom by me. (First one I’ve ever done!) Battery tray is removable without removing rear wheel. Battery held in by leather belt which will be custom tooled.
Phew.........
Dry build done a couple of weeks ago. Now stripped for paint and polishing.
I’ll post more pics as I go............
Cheers,
Paul.
