Don't let the name fool you, I can stay on a bike :D
« on: August 08, 2008, 12:27:57 PM »
Hey all, I'm Crash from Kansas. Had a '85 Honda Shadow a few years ago till the guy I was buying it from took off with the bike and the money  >:(  So now I'm back with a '72 CB750 project chopper. Gonna be starting a thread in the project section so keep an eye out fo rit. I also have a 2000 Panterra dirtbike and a '78 CB400A that's in the middle of a restore. Got it from a guy who had left it in his backyard uncovered for over 20 years :( Hope to learn alot form the forums and make some new friends in the process. Oi!

Welcome!  From the pics it looks like you're well into both projects.  Looking forward to your build threads.

Looks to me like the chopper's frame has already been raked etc?

Yeah, it was raked and lowered when I bought it. Saw it and had to have it. Raked, lowering blocks, 750 bored out to a 836, 125 jets.  All for $750   ;D
