My recently redone chopper
Wow man, it's bikes like yours that make me want to hard tail my bike.
Mine is getting close. I'm not sure about the pipes yet...may just run headers with internal baffles. I.m mainly waiting on rotor spacers now.
i absolutly love this bike

Finished getting her ready for my boy...going to deliver it to him in a few days. New paint on new/old gas tank, new rear tire, fixed a few little oddities that I had simply learned to live with...33 years of fun and enjoyment, I sure hope he takes good care of ol' Bessy.

This bike rides like a Cadilac. The seat is sprung using one of the rear removed shocks and handls much better than the shite stock setup.

FINALLY, worthy of posting in THIS thread !! My hard tail is road ready and has been around the block a few times, just waiting on a front master cylinder to be able to get the safety inspection and title all finished. Any way here is the finished (almost) product.
Hope you find it worthy !!!
Not bad for a FIRST bike build that took 4 months start to finish and actually made it under my 3k budget by $10.00, looks like I got beer money to cristen her !!!

Nice build, turbo. Question tell us about this safety inspection? how does it work. In Ohio if bike is out of state they check that numbers match, unless its salvage title then it's a pain.

Really just another chance for the govt to get another $20.00 out of people. They check lights brakes and numbers. Peice of cake really if everything is working its just another formality in the annual registration process.
