The boys on Choppers Australia forum are planning to build a chop and raffle it off for Qld flood relief.
They will also be making a dvd of the build to sell.
Currently they have lots of parts donated but still need a motor/frame/rolling chassis/donor bike.
It can be anything 400cc upwards as it will be a lowrider/bobber/chop not a speed machine...
Anyone in Qld got an old junker under a tarp they would be able to donate ?
Older (non streetfighter) type forks and wheels also needed..

So they will be selling a DVD for people to watch... Guess this will include a bike to look at. Sounds similar to featuring it in a magazine.

Obviously....but this is being done to help out those who have lost everything, not boost someones sales figures...


Update...They now have an '81 CB900 motor donated...so any bits anyone has in the corner of the shed for one of these...maybe even a frame :)

Ok...update...

The cb900 is complete but needs a top end rebuild....

Anyone got a lead on cheap rings/gasket set ?

Yeah, cool but not the plan...
Seeing as its Choppers Aus its gonna be a hardtail....full on custom bike.....

Hopefully Got Team Moto on board...spoke to the marketing lady, just has to clear it with her boss but cant see a prob so that should be rings and gaskets sorted...
