That’s the mother of all choppers imagine having that back I. The 70s. 👍

cool job liked

I bought chopper forks in the same colour for 10 euro brand new

It'll see a strip down around September to blast and repaint the frame, plus it will be having some attention paid to the chrome as some of it needs doing after 5 years of hard riding in all weathers and over 3,000 miles (2,000 were ridden before the speedo was fitted). I'm Sure Bobby K will do a fuller, more in-depth video on the bike at some point ;)

Thanks for the info Ron, I look forward to seeing it all fresh when that time comes :) 3000 miles is impressive :O I did 1000 miles in 2016 mostly between my Falcon, my RSW and my Trek mountain bike

lovely. be worth a few £££ these days.

[@bobbykbikes]

I'm sure it is! Ron jokingly said "you break it, you bought it!" Chopper prices in general are mad, though I am now getting closer to making mine into something nice :)

+BobbyKBikes cool didn't know you had a chopper? what you got?

[@bobbykbikes]

Ah yes, I have one, I haven't shown it in the videos in almost 5 years. It's a 1978 (I think) mk2 ultraviolet, made the mistake of buying a frame on eBay 10 years ago thinking I could get a Chopper by buying it bit by bit :O that has been very expensive, hence the project has moved very slowly. I bought some more bits for it yesterday, and I now have the frame, forks, wheels, bars, brake calipers, levers, sissy bar, springs, rack, crankset, headset and rear mudguard. Just need a seat, shifter, front guard and chainguard now. I've made a few contacts who say they can sort me out with parts and a respray, so there should be a Chopper update soon :)

+BobbyKBikes cool love the ultra violet mk 2, I have 3. seat and shifter are expensive. good luck with it I'll look forward to seeing a video on it. Cheers

[@bobbykbikes]

Ah nice :) Yeah that's what I was afraid of lol, Choppers are certainly not cheap :/ It may well make an appearance soon :)
