'real'choppers
« on: November 19, 2006, 01:22:05 AM »
couple of bikes built in the mid/late 70's, taken a couple of weeks ago.
The turbo was originally a show winner, still looks pretty much the same after 30yrs
Black chop has Kawasaki shaft drive wheels fitted(someone was asking about CX wheels on a 500F?)

Crazy, thanks for the pics.  That red turbo is simply aweseome, although I don't know if I'd want to be on it when the turbo kicks in. Mebbe that's why it has a rudder on the front wheel -- keeps it going straight.  ;)

Actually, that was the problem with those front ends- they ONLY went straight.
