    Pics Of My New Ride

    I have been on this project since January. Most of parts were found at swap meets. Whatever I could'nt find or afford I made. Any work that I could'nt do myself (powdercoating, lacing the wheels) I bartered for. This is the bike I envisioned. Tell me what you guys think......

    Don't know much about choppers (I can tell you anything about supermotos though), but that looks pretty awesome. Reminds me of the choppers from Easy Rider.

    Its pretty common to coat the wheels on these old bobbers in red. I wanted to be a little different, so I went with blue

    I was going for the old school chopper/ bobber look. Thats why the wheel is so thin. Runs great. Motor has been stroked and cammed. Still have some tweaking to do though.

    Probably around 3500-4000 not counting the frame. It's a vintage Jammer plunger frame. Took about a year and a half of saving and searching to find it.

    like the sidmounted brake light and the no frills headlight. You stuck very well to a bobber/chopper ride. What rise on the handlebars.
