Chopper/Art Show Winter 2012



This next winter The Chopper Underground, in conjunction with another collective or two, will be co-hosting Champaign-Urbana, IL's first ever Chopper/Art show.

The show will consist of handpicked local motorcycle builders and artists that will showcase their work. We're looking at a 3 night, 2 day, weekend event that will boast an opening reception the first night. We are really excited about this endeavor and realize we've got our work cut out for us. If any of you out there have experience you'd like to share we're all ears! Keep an eye out here and at the So'full Garage for updates.

Nicotene Free!

Well, it has been over 24 hours since I had my last cigarette. So far so good. Going to give it my best shot to get off these things. Not only am I looking forward to being able to do things I can't do now because of my health I am also looking forward to all the chopper goodies I can spend the extra money on...lol

It has been a rough couple of weeks due to deaths in the family but things have seemed to calm down the last couple of days. I am itching to get back in the shop and start work on a new toy. I finally got the BBO bike where I want it after the big shakedown run to MI. (New exhaust mount, velocity stax, larger jets, floats set and fan wired up correctly).

I have the 77 XS650 tracker that I started a couple of months ago but really not feeling it right now so thinking I might dig out the 75 CB750 I have stashed and start konging it...
