progress...

Frame is black for the most part, put a black dash on, and the most striking part is the original rusty exhaust set up. A moped makes more noise, so I'll have to change that first! And I still need the exh. bracket to fit it to the frame. What do you guys think?

To do:
-fit new tires front and rear
-cut the rear fender for more chain clearence
-get exhaust bracket
-fork boots
-replace rear brake pads
-replace fluids
-lower rear shocks maybe
-original style brake front line (replace the ugly braided steel stuff that's on there now)

Another world of chopper vol.3

Is gonna have a little feature about my friend Tjeerd from short-cut.nl and my XS650 chopper which Daisuke shot a year ago, I am very curious how it turned out! I'm thinking of ordering a couple for the trusty ZZChop-blog readers, so let me know so I can check how many I should order. Think the cost will end up on the 20 to 30 Euro's pricerange each. If you would like one please email me and I will see what I can do, I am not promising anything!!!
I have vol. 1 and 2 and it absolutely RULES! If you like the wonderful Japanese built bikes you will love it...
It doesn't feature Harleys but all the other stuff is in there
