I love those chopper shox


Well no handle bars yet. Bitwell stopped making the 7/8" last year even though it is on their website. I kind of like the ones by 6 road customs on ebay. I really like some made by Kansas Customs by they are expensive. I wish I could bend tubing. Another tool I want by don't really need. I installed chopper shox they are pretty much straight but off a little on one side. Pretty good for one person in a tight little space. I receive my new caliper piston, installed it but a little mouse carried away the brake shoe screw. I am working on fabricating the battery box and brake stay. Oh, just a little hint for photographing metal objects. If you surround the object with white it will look like metal and not turn black.

Roller


Well I have the roller started, after buying parts for months. I am waiting for the chain and some other parts from mikexs. Once the rear wheel is lined up I will be able to install the fender. I bought seat pan and shox from Dave at Choppershox.com. The caliper piston was pitted so I bought a new one and will install that when it arrives. I am looking a t bars. I am trying to decide between Keystone's by Bitwell or or some mini apes on ebay. I bought the sportster tank at a swap meet and mounted that last week.
