I'm Chris. I hail from the clean streets of Reno NV and have now settled in the equally beautiful land of Koreatown in LA. I'm a barber by trade and work at a shop in the LA farmer's market. I was raised by a single mom that was only 15 years my elder so I didn't have much growing up but I had friends with dirt bikes and she had boyfriends with choppers which fueled my infatuation. Last year, I finally saved enough coin to buy my first bike. I bought an '03 883 custom and have since been doing as much as possible to make it a bad mother fucker. Just today I've decided to stop lurking on here and introduce myself. So here goes!

Welcome Chris! TCB sounds like it accurately sums up your life; doing what you gotta do! :cheers:

Hey Chop Culters, My name's Rob, got my license and first bike after years of thinking about it about a year ago. First bike is an 81 CB750k, its more cafe style than chop but I just picked up a 96 sporty with a little different plan, little more tough lookin, hopefully. I live in Philly and am lucky to live within a few blocks of three different shops that have different specialties. This site seems to have a ton of cool people who are pretty willing to share knowledge and experience, stoked to be a new member.

Welcome Rob! :cheers:

Hey, I'm Coffins. I'm a dirtbag from Ottawa, Ontario and I'm looking to throw together a bike for the first time this year, hopefully a CB750. I came to use the Classifieds section, but I'll probably stick around.

Welcome Coffins! :cheers:

What up folks! name's Mac, and i live in Germany. I don't have a proper chop yet but i ride a 2012 blackline...it's got a jockey shift if that counts for anything. lol I wanted to start with a platform that was newer and give it a proper chop job....in retrospect this may not have been my best life decision, but i love my bike anyway.

At any rate, i finally joined the site after stalkin it for about a year. TONS of good info for future projects and based on the junk pile, the crowd seemed more my speed.

Welcome Mac! :cheers:

Hey Cats,

This is my first post/Introduction post. Seems like I’m in the right place.

I bought a ’72 Triumph Bonneville back in the late 80s, when I was a teenager. It was my first bike, had no experience with them at all. As kids, my siblings and I rode the shit out of the family snowmobiles, but that’s not a good comparison, turns out.

I have to admit, I was kind of an idiot with my first Triumph. It did get me back and forth to work for quite a while, and I had a lot of fun on it, but eventually I got stupid and dumped it a couple of times. Then I had some mechanical problems that were beyond me.

Long story shorter, I had to store it at one point, and soon after that it got stolen. I won’t go into that story here.

Flash forward: I’ll be 45 this year, my daughter is almost done at university, life was $ettling down in some ways, several of my buddies ride, and I figured it was about time for me to get another bike.

I recently bought a ‘66 Bonneville from a friend. The snow here was pretty intense this year, and I’m still snowed in until it clears. I’ll go into more detail about the bike another time, another thread.

I plan to watch the shit out of the English 101/102 videos, buy myself some more tools and take some advice from friends. Bike doesn’t need much work at this point, but I have some plans (and some learning to do).

So yeah… I’m pretty much a Newbie at 45 years old, a (hopefully) smarter man, with plans and a dream. Let’s see how that works out.

Hi Dietrich66! Welcome to CC. :cheers:

Hi All

I'm Arthur from upstate NY. Have had Triumphs for many years, took a long break starting in '95. Well, bought a 2000 Sportster and I'm back. The electric start is pretty cool to have. Not many modifications in my future, I am just really happy to go for a ride. I do appreciate the craftsmanship most of the members show here. Lots of hours go into making a living. Most of my free time goes into shooting, but I wanted to get back into something that brought me a lot of good time previously.

Best,

Welcome Arthur! :cheers:
