60 over Sugar Bear front end!
I posted this in my build thread but figured I would start one to share this. I found it upstairs at the shop I have been spending a lot of time in called Siouxicide Choppers, right before we went to a swap/show. Anyway, the owner of the shop built this frame just for the front end. Its a 68 Shovel, frame built from scratch, and a big ass sugar bear front end.

Proof that there is such a thing as "too much of a good thing".
I LOVE Sugar Bear Springers, but that looks dumb. Like someone is trying too hard to be the cool guy at the bike show.

Very unique but I guess I just don't get it.

I agree as well, too much of a very cool, good thing. Although from what I've read about Sugar Bear's springers it probably still handles well, haha.

*SEEMS TO ME*That's how they're runnin them in Japan nowadays*BASED ON THE PLETHORA OF CHOPPER VIDEOS WITH JAPANESE TITLES AND THEIR RATIO OF THIS PARTICULAR CHOPPER TO AMERICAN OR OTHERWISE IN COMPARISON OF WHICH I HAVE FOUND WHILE SEARCHING"CHOPPERS"*. I don't see it going that extreme *NOWADAYS* this side of the world.*NOT TO SAY THIS STYLE OF BIKE OR ANY OTHER HAD NEVER BEEN BUILT AT ANY TIME IN OUR COUNTRY'S RICH CHOPPER HERITAGE.* I think it's way awesome to look at, but I can't see wanting a bike you have to look around to see where you are rollin.

I think you should rethink the frame and make the longest digger ever!

Not really something I'd want to ride. But I can appreciate the cartoonish excesses and it makes nice living room art. Some equally absurd upturned exhaust pipes would give it some balance maybe?
