Way before STREETFIGHTERS there were CHOPPERS

Anyone else old enough to remember "the old day's" when this is the sort of shit people did to the now classic kwaka 9's/honda fours???? Back in the day's when Hippy D's were AMF owned???? Does my interest in these mean I have a FETISH????

At least you would still be able to WALK after riding this!!!

Taken a year ago, home built by my mate Thommo.
Handled like a dog with the springer front, was a slut to tune with the morris magneto, hurt your arse after about 20 minutes.
Cool as shit.
Sold to a copper for stupid money.

RIP Cindy

Very cool. Not ashamed to admit I am thinking about a similar thing for my other oil cooled 750.

Everyone knows I like these things. Well, most of them. The second picture is a Santee swingarm frame. I have one I got a while back , I repaired it(it had a hard life)and have mono shocked so it will take a 750 Slingshot motor/wheels . But, it has to wait til I'm caught up on the customer bikes .

Aint nuthin wrong with Ol' Skool Jap engined Chops, one of my earliest motorcycle memories is of a dirty, scruffy biker dude taking off from the local bike shop one day when I was pushing my RM 125 up there to get looked at, He was on a 750/4 Chop, raked, long forks, coffin tank, hardtail, sissy bar, you name it, it was cool as fuck at the time, he saw me looking at the bike & took off smokin it sideways, shifted up a gear & kept it smoking up & fishtailing for about 200 metres [] To a young & highly impressionable kid like me, that was the wildest thing I'd ever seen & it no doubt etched itself into my consciousness because I wanted a Chopper for years after that.

Yeh . Actually have 2 blokes that keep talking to me about making a TL or VTR engined chopper for them. As I know both though my regular job it doesn't take up any time but it is fun to throw unconventional ideas around. I was supposed to be doing a Busa road legal rigid drag bike next year but the customer chickened out and bought a Rocket 3 Trumpy instead.

This was built by 12 GAUGE CHOPPERS in Qld was on ebay a little while ago reached 10k but didn't hit reserve!!!

This is the style I like short,sharp and basic.The bloke I got my z900 rat from had a amen savior sprung axle frame new never used but missing the springs/axle set up. Thinking of buying it maybe setting the rear up as a rigid running a 180 tire.Not a lot off the old chopper frames/parts seem to have survived, I see the odd coffin tank on ebay but not much else.
