Thank you, Karate Chicken and Mr Monkeyarms, WheelBender6, Sparky Sharky, AJames, Rusty Gold, Kevin B, Bruised, MattiThundrrr, David Baker, Sasza, PeteMcP + Others, Ive never really done any Social media before, but I really enjoy the site and get quite a buzz knowing that you guys appreciate...

Well the post arrived today with the leather tassels, so just another quick update. "Get your motor running, get out on the highway, looking for adventure",,,,, ok I really cant get the song 'Born to be wild' out of my head. :shake:. Fitted the handlebar tassels and some slim ones to the sissy...

I decided that there was no better time than after paint :headbang: to grind back on the frame and sort out that steering limit thingy. Had the choice of limiting the handlebars or limiting the front wheel amount, I chose the later because if I hit a rock at 30 MPH, Ide rather the front forks...

---------------------------STUFF-THE-WEATHER--------------------------- I was gona wait for better weather, but I have seen so much grey fillers dust recently, I needed color. It was still to windy to fix my spraying in shed and I just needed to see it back together again. Not yet...

Soooo much sandingggggg. Well this puts Zen to rest, filler on, filler off, filler on, filler off, my original plan was more in keeping with the Rat Rod ideal rather than "O" so shiny, but I kinda got carried away with 2C4S Chopper-Up and a week later👇 Then another week,,,, NO !, Looking at...

Yup, not really meant for any fitment unless its a V framed bike, trying to shoehorn the 4 stroke into a space what could be considered only slightly larger than a Dairylea Triangle (cheese snack in UK) was still my preferred option, even though a 2 stroke possibly could have fitted at a weird...

Back with some extra updates. My Huret Speedo arrived yesterday and I am very pleased in the condition, for one that is 50-60 years old and only done 63 miles (surely not 9963) its just what I was after, I already had a cable and takeoff drive from an earlier Monkey bike project that I can use...

Thank you, had to Google Virtuoso first, just incase. :thumbsup: Before starting 2C4S, I on purpose didnt look online to see if it had been done before as I did not wana play catchup, but now I have looked there are some, but each one is markable different, good for me as I always try and put my...

Thank you for the nice words, I realize Im skating on thin ice with Chopper-Up being motorized, I have looked at other forums but ratrodbikes just ticks all the right buttons for me, seems to have a good bunch of people who just like to be a bit more rebellious, creative and fun.

Update, with the T-top gear shifter knob fitted and a bit of smoothing around the edges of the tank, its starting to look the part, even though its only for aesthetics as the motor has a centrifugal clutch it keeps the retro look alive. Once its painted I will then apply the stickers...

Hi Slow-Rider, Ive got the name for your bike, how about 'Blue by you' (Blue Bayou by Roy Orbison) unless its been used before.

This is a fantastic site and I have now updated in to the Build section.

Hi guys, Had a Raleigh Chopper in the early 1970, never been interested in other pushbikes since (update, sorry, didnt mean to be rude I now see how much love people put into their bikes), only 4x4's, Vans, gocarts, trikes and Monkeybikes, one Month ago started my new project 2 Cool 4 Skool...

Cheers for your help, just been to check up on becoming a supporting member, good price and I like the stickers, tomorrow I will bring my card or can I use Paypal.

Thank you Kevin B, I found it now. Can I ask you as someone with nearly 21 years uploading experience here, a couple of questions, do you recommend when I have some updates on 2 Cool 4 Skool, Chopper-Up, I add to another thread thats already set up. Also my Avatar shows my gocart 'Hound-Dog' I...
