well after several top end failures i think i've finally nailed it, painted in house of kolor, snowhite pearl and euro red, using uc35 klear(that stuff is evil)
yup shiney paint job but leaving the rest of the bike rusty

3rd pic ,got bored a week or so ago and started chopping a spare frame i had, plan is to make a rigid from an oif, 6" ground clearance ,and running stock tank forks wheels etc, but this will be a long, ground off the swing arm mount and rewelded the tube into frame as it was leaking anyway ,made up some slugs n rosette welded them into the lower frame rails,its going to be a slow build

So, are you going to pull the lump and stuff off the running bike to build the chopper?

Will this be the build thread for that project, or should the pix of the running bike be moved to the "member's bike photos" section?

yup all parts will be pulled from borris
and put into the chop. This will allow me to sell the original frame with log book to get some money back
