shts cool as hell!
I like it looks like its going to be fun
looking good, I cant wait to see the finished product!
Dats cool mon...
cant wait to see it finished!
damn, looks good. I think the new front end will make it look even better too.
Just playing around with some different ideas. A buddy of mine works at a machine shop and he is going to cut out the clamps for my front end.

awesome
man that is very impressive.....this is awesome
^Thanks everyone, I really appreciate it!!!
Nice project man...
Well I decided to change the front forks from 2 in pipe to 1.5 in pipe. I think this will look better with the bicycle wheel. And I am gonna try to get a wider tire to go with the bike wheel too. I still don't know if I like it or not.
What do you guys think??? Should I go with with my original small fat front wheel, or the bike wheel?

bike wheel
x2
bike wheel
no doubt
bike wheel and a stretched springer front end
Bike wheel, but get a bling bling lowrider wheel.
Man that shit is gangsta as fawk you should think about mass producing these bastards
the bike wheel looks a lot better.
but i would try to use a rim that has a 14mm axle bc its stonger than the 3/8s one.
^Yeah the wheel I am using is 14mm, I was just using this wheel cause it has the tire I am using. I have rode bmx for like 10 years now, so I have tons of bike parts!
great job man, im jealous and i want one, lol. great progression. keep posting intrested in seeing it finished. good luck.
Matt, this is looking awesome buddy!!!! I want to ride it when you're done. I'll come raise hell at Mr. Johnny's shop on it. LOLOL
any updates
Well sorry for the period of no progress, but I got the clamps back from my buddy that works at the machine shop. They turned out amazing to say the least. And the front end should be finished up this week. I like this setup a lot. I'll post up some pics tomorrow of the front end on the bike.

F-ing SWEET! Looks really good w/ the new forks and front tire buddy!
^Thanks bro. I really need to work on it and finish it up. It has been sitting for like 2 weeks. I have had so much going on!
updates for 2010?
Well I had to dig up this old thread and actually finish it. LOL I have long finished the chopper, and actual took it to 2 car shows. That's me in the black FOX shirt. Everybody seems to like it. Let me know what you think. Thanks
Here is a picture from the first show I put it in. This is with the suicide rear brake, polished gas tank, and heat wrap on exhaust. The other pics are before when I first finished painting it.

WHY muffler tube for the frame?
LAME if you ask me!
Muffler tube? It's anodized steel exhaust pipe. It's strong, I have a way of bending it, and it looks good. How is it lame? What was I supposed to use to meet the homemade chopper guidelines?
Mild steel buddy, do you ever hear about it?
it is a awesome build, dont get me wrong, is that just aluminized muffler tube, just dont cut it buddy, i dont mean to disrespect you at all, as it is a nice build, but lame about the material used for a frame, no matter if is home made or professional made you may spend the same if not less buying 1 1/4 .83 ERW tubing than aluminized muffler tubing, just my 2 cents my friend, by the way your machine would bend it as well!
i would buy it... how does it ride?
