Shut up 🤣

One axle plate welded in, so I had to nab a quick picture. Just spent this morning working on my welder, so later this week I’ll do the other side.

I got a great deal on a 1965 mid shaft transmission and i was wondering if its possible to pair with a 1982 shovel. i’m planning on running an alternator tin primary inner with a 1.5 belt drive. I’ve heard people say you can use a mid shaft on an open belt setup, but can’t find any reliable info on how difficult it is or if it truly even works. any help would be appreciated!

Cause this is more fun and gettin' one from china is too easy.

Dad passed away a few years ago and I found this picture of him on a chopper in the 90s and I’d love to see which model this is and potentially buy one. Thank you!

If so, I'm curious if you've had oil leaking from the vent, water coming in, or any issues like that? Evo 5spd transmission vents on the back of the lid, pointed directly at the tire so I'd prefer it not get lubed by the vent.

I have stripped the bolts on 2 hub pullers and wacked the shit out of this thing from the A side and it won’t budge.

Any experience or idea removing this hub on a 4 speed.

Just wondering if anyone knows of some solo seat spring mounts I can throw on a frame without welding or drilling.

i’ve heard a lot of folks saying evos run like shit with points, but i only heard that after i switched to points. so what’s yalls thoughts about it? is it gonna mess up anything on my bike? should i just make the switch to the dynatek that most guys use or keep with my points?

I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but I'm as new as they come when it comes to building a custom chopper.

There's an 07 883 sportster custom for sale in my area for a decent price. Wondering if the "custom" model will work for a chopper and how it differs from let's say a a base sportster or "low" model of the same year. Maybe it's just me but the xl883c looks like it has a different stance/profile than the xl883L.

Am I trippin?

Hi all,

Is there an active chopper scene in Scotland? I ride an old Harley, but I love choppers and old bikes in general.

Most of the Harley riders I know are 60+, while I'm in my late 30s.

It would be nice to get involved

Thanks!

Title is the question hahah, any builders out here in Delaware? I’ve seen a few chops riding around but have yet to bug anyone about them. Wanna find my people here and find some help along the way for my winter build

Let’s get at er. I’ll post more as I start putting parts back on and maybe make more detailed posts. Otherwise enjoy my ghetto paint booth

That 84/85 axle plate was hideous

Client has lower back issues, so a little rear suspension will keep his knees in the breeze. Lots left to do, but the overall picture is coming together to my liking.

I decided to build both, first up is an angular springer. Then a.friend is taking measurements from this og triumph girder and I'll build a short girder. I'll get em both done and decide which I like better.

Beautiful weather and a good time as always

I live in Toronto and it’s getting a bit cold out. Looking for gauntlet glove suggestions!
