All,
I've been perusing the site for a month now and have learned quite a bit in a short amount of time.
I'm looking to build or buy a 60-70s style chopper with a Harley power plant. I've come across a lot on craigslist and Ebay but haven't found one I like. After looking on this site and reading info on line, I've decided to buy a good condition, running, early 80s shovelhead. I attached images of the one I'm planning on getting. Any comments, concerns, advice would be greatly appreciated
While I've been looking for a chopper, I've talked to a handful of custom shops, mechanics, and owners of the style I'm looking for. What ive decided on, is a Kraft Tech 2 out, 4 up frame and a Paughco Springer front end. I'm 6'1" and sat on a 2 out, 4 up and it fit great.
I'm leaning towards buying a frame instead of cutting up the original but I'm going to talk to my insurance company and the MN DMV before I buy a frame.
Thanks for looking. Cheers!
