The Chopper Compendium

The hubs are a great detail.

It might be nice to carry the brass/gold color to the wheels. What is black now stays black, and the silver portion gets the brass look.

Hmmmmm, I was going to lose the gold finish and go with a different colour scheme but now you've got me thinking.....

Wide glide girder anyone progress on my FZ project at last......

Maz

Hi maz, been long time. Glad you are still doing well on your builds. I have been very busy past year with regular life stuff, still have my bike build to get back to working on it. Been rebuilding my Camaro and other projects to pay the bills

Hi Jonester, I've also been very busy getting my shop going, had to move everything to a new place around a month ago so setting it all up again

I haven't done much on my FZ750 project for a while but will be getting at it again soon..... several other bike n trike projects happening at the moment so plenty of pics to follow....

Maz

I've been stupidly busy for some time, lots of projects on the go....here's a GS1000 bobber frame I did this week, still needs a bit of welding and grinding but you get the idea.... oh yeah and I finally got round to welding up the girders for my FZ750 project.... More soon guys

Maz

Hi guys, I'm back again from yet another short stint in hospital - this time I hope to be about for several months before the next visit....

I've been busy (whenever possible) and have built several more rigid and soft-tail frames plus another four trikes since I last posted anything on here - unfortunately my own projects have been at a standstill due to pressure of work....BUT I am determined to get the FZ750 finished for the spring as well as the V12 trike and a few other projects....

So grab a chair and sit back, cos the Bitch is back

Damn girl, sorry to hear about the hospital visits, please, please, be well...

Dont push yerself too hard now lady ! Give it some time to heal !!

Just before I went into hospital, I bought an old Yammy XV1000 Virago as a donor bike for a future project, it was part stripped and came with a big box of bits.... after checking the box and rumaging around in the stores, I found enough bits to build a softail punk chopper from it.... I don't like the short headstock and rake on the stock XV so I kicked the front out a few inches and raked it, plus lowered the back a little..... our new painter grabbed the tins and ran off into his shed and my crew (including apprentices) grabbed the rest of it..... when I came back from hospital they had finished it... so here's some pics of my No1 apprentice giving it a test ride..... So there it is... PunkBob... my new shop run-around bike...

I just love my crew

Looks very good, and I'm VERY GLAD you are feeling up to posting again.
