Who has a chopper? Britt still here? I want a chopper.

He didn't say the standards were very high....

 

I can see it sitting outside a grocery store, giving rides for a quarter.

 

Oh, and on the subject of V8 mo'cycles.....E.J. Potter

 

and drum brakes... badum tis

 

Contraption comes to mind.

 

Digging for pics of the cb750 choppers my uncle built, I did find one with I "think" is an XS 650 or 750 twin engine that he did circa late 90's. Cant find the damned pics of the CB's though. Did find a bunch of the missing fat strongman pics I was looking for...........might have to post those since you wont post any MMA chick pics in your other bait thread

 

Found one……and i think this may be my uncles first with a front brake. It’s a cb 750 or 850……not sure

 

The desire for a chopper is lost on me, but...

Imagine the dissonance of the sight and sound.

About a week remaining in the auction. Reserve is likely rather high, as it was listed once before with an asking price of $30K, if memory serves.

 

Checked over at my uncle's and my XS650 chopper is still there...

 

I was moving stuff around in the garage and uncovered this so I went ahead and took a picture. That's the unfinished frame. The little Ford motor is on the right and the Harley six speed trans is sitting on the floor. I have enough mounts to hold the motor and gearbox in place but not for running. I also need to make a frame "head stay" that joins the steering head to the top of the engine block. I may finish it someday.

 

No. Only one of the big three/four out of Oakland that persists is Everett and Jones. Naturally, they were the least best of the bunch. As a southside kid c. 1975, I was pretty darn near the palest customer of Flint's on Shattuck. That said, one time this middle-aged (30?) white guy once ordered his food "to go". (There was no seating in the place. Literally, no room except for the line to snake out the door.) Man I miss that joint.

 

That thing makes me giggle with lust.

 

Here is my Chopper, never really had an interest in those "other" choppers.

 

Need any parts for that??

 

Whatcha got, engine or air frame parts? 212 HP

 

Choppers are cool.

 

Having a budy upgrade the 120r to 124r. My rear tire won’t last 1500 miles.

 

You keep the ladder there in case Dave wants to go for a ride?
