hi all,
ill start with the background started riding bikes at 4yr old, never stopped since.
my friends say i dont have blood in me i run petrol through my veins due to the fact im obsessed with anything that has an engine, cars bikes trucks boats etc. im in the process of knocking together a haynes roadster kit car which im slinging a yzf r1 into.
iv always been a sports bike rider as in yam r6's etc never been a chopper rider always admired never owned. well iv been watching a well known tv show for ages. this gave me the idea to build my own custom chopper i have always fancied a harley 883 or something along these lines but im thinking fat 200 to 240 rear wheel single seat chop.
iv put drawings of my own together but im after some real plans to save me all the maths etc.
well thats me a 31 yr old petrol head from the uk.
thanks for reading and you guys have some nice rides on here i only hope i can get something half as good

- SELF INTRODUCTION: So,...I guess I'm a newb. Can I get my "General Smart-Ass" moniker back, or do I actually have to build something. Like a chopper for example. I am hoping to re-start a build that's been sitting in my shop for a couple years with most of the parts already acquired.
Just wanted to thank Dan and anyone else involved in getting this board up and running.
Dan is a personal friend of mine and one of the finest people I know. I have a world of respect for him, not just for his work here but also for reasons beyond this forum.
Not sure if that's 200 words, but that's my intro and I'm sticking to it.
BTW, I'm Mark. Not Indian, just a fanatic of the motorcycle brand.

- SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.
