Ok. Starting the chopper build, sharing the project for you guys...

Itīs kinda a low budget build but i am very exited..

First. Picked up a brand new DNA 240-280 rear rigid chopper frame. Like this frame coz it has no center tube.



Testing the frame in my girlfriends home (where iīm gonna build)



Next. Found a used hybrid EVO/Shovel engine VERY cheap! Seller claims that it works, have no clue, hey..did I mention it was cheap?

The right crank half is from a 1976 Shovel, rest is EVO early 90. Kinda cool...









More to come.....

 

Hej Bosken,you forgot to paint the engine Black before you bolted in lol....be interesting thread to follow....is it a Gibsons frame?

PS. Do Ikea build tables THAT strong haha!...good luck and get it off there before the GF sees what your doing !!

Regards Sumpnut : )

 

Awesome man! That looks like its going to be blast. Can't wait to see this thread updated as it goes along. Your definitely going to make a badass ride for sure. Good luck man!

 

You have my blessing.

 

Ooh, nice thread! Keep the pics and details coming please!

 

Haha..must build the whole Chopper before painting anything... if I need to weld mountings and other shajt..

No, no Gibson frame.

 

that a boy! nice work man... polish the motor, powder the jugs, polish the rockers... awesome frame! great score on the motor man! let me know if you need anything!
you should toss a springer on your bob and use your forks off he bob on the chop!

 

Hell yea looks like a sweet project.

 

Minor update, had to "build" myself a great mockup room at my girlfriends house To much crap in the garage, no room for me there...



I dont like chrome or polished so much so I went for Scotch Brite finish; "Exile Style" on the rockers. Will change bolts later on...
