- SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi All,
My name is Craig Irish. I live in Northern California. I've been a member for a long time but I am re registering because the board is new. I have a project build thread on this board call Irish's Old School Chopper Project. I'm glad the board is still going and I very much appreciate Dan keeping it going. Thanks Dan!

Re: Irish's CBH Old School Chopper Project
I sold this bike back in 2010. I just this past weekend set up my tube bender and drug my jig out and cleaned it off. I'm going to build another frame. My brother just found me a really nice old springer with a mini drum front wheel. I'll be starting another build thread sometime soon. I'm going to take my time and build the frame so it's just the way I want it.

- 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.

I still got the Chopper Builders mag with your bike in it. That was cool.

Re: Irish's CBH Old School Chopper Project
Yep, we’re still over in the corner gatherin’ dust. Good to see you!
I’ve finally convinced the knuck to be my friend (i think). Now, it’s just a challenge finding time to ride (other than to work).
I’ve got some stuff here i’m gonna try to post up.
Take care,
-dan
