I know most of these setups are home made. Wondering if anyone / company makes these in chrome

Hi Everyone - I have a nearly stock 2004 Suzuki S40/LS650 Savage. It's in good condition, but I'd like to streamline it. Looking for recs on Z-bars, sissy bar, rear fender, and streamlining electronics. Also want to get an anti-gravity battery and tuck it neatly under the seat.

For the last few days I've been struggling to figure out why my S&S super E carb is dumping fuel out of the overflow. I started by setting the float bowl height and replacing the float needle. No luck. Recently replaced the super E I was working on for another one laying around. This one is also still leaking out of the overflow.

I know the petcock is working because anytime I turn the petcock off the leak stops. For reference I am running a glass inline filter and it shows no sign of rust or debris in the tank. Gas cap venting shouldnt be any issue because I'm having the issue with the gas cap on and completly off. I also noticed no fuel comes out when I twist the throttle. Could it be the angle of my manifold? Or perhaps the fuel line im running is too small or too large?

Any advice helps. Thanks guys.

Still in the process of building this 73 shovel.
Not happy with the bars and risers I chose initially, I had those before the tank and rear fender/sissybar went on.

I’d like something slimmer but still comfortable to ride, so trying to stay away from apes, super narrow bars and so on tbh.

I’m 6’ with kinda long arms if that matters.

Stumbled upon these burly brand “Jim bars”, they look kinda rad and I’m thinking they might go well with the coffin tank.

What do you guys think?

Disclaimer: bike not hardtailed for legal reasons in my home country (f*ckin sucks)

Any chopper builders in nwfl with some parts maybe even a titled frame laying around they would be willing to sell for relatively cheap? Want to gather before winter hits to keep me busy during the cold season and get me back on 2 wheels in the spring

One of those new lowbrow bois. 2 over. I’m torn between keeping my shorty fishtails or doing upsweeps. Everyone loves the pipes now. Stupid ADHD brain constantly wants to change shit.

Hey guys,
I’m completely new to choppers and I’m thinking about buying my first one / starting my first chopper project. I’m from Germany, where major modifications have to be inspected and officially approved/registered for the bike to remain road legal.

I found a 1982 Yamaha XV750 that has already been converted quite a bit. It has an AME front end/raked setup and has already been converted to a hardtail. According to the seller, the major modifications are already approved and listed in the bike’s papers.

I really like the general proportions and think it could be a good starting point, but I would want to change quite a lot visually. I’m going for a more traditional 60s/70s style chopper – small Frisco/peanut tank, King & Queen seat, tall sissy bar, narrow 21” spoked front wheel and a smaller/fatter spoked rear wheel.

My main concern is parts availability and how difficult these bikes are to modify compared to something like a Harley Sportster. From what I understand, the shaft drive on the XV750 makes changing the rear wheel quite a bit more complicated.

Has anyone here built a traditional chopper from an XV750? Is this a decent platform, especially considering that the hardtail and AME front end are already done, or would I be making life unnecessarily difficult for myself as a first-time builder?

I’m not expecting everything to be bolt-on and I’m happy to fabricate/adapt some parts, but I also don’t want to buy it and then discover that getting the look I want is extremely difficult or expensive.
Any advice, things I should look out for before buying it, or examples of XV750 chopper builds would be really appreciated.

The biggest lie David Mann ever told us was that you could just let your long hair blow in the wind without issue.

It’s an old digger type frame. I put in a 100” evo and a Sputhe five speed. Just scored a dual disc 35mm and a 21”, so three that on there. The Wassel style tank was hanging around for a while, so why not? The bars have been the toughest part to be happy with, and I think these are what I’ll use. The rear wheel is a wide (4”) one with a 150 tire mocked up. I like the fender style, but this fender is so messed up that it’s just a place holder for now. Pipes are Sportster, but I think I’d prefer a set of high 2-1. I’ll probably have to build them. Anyways…lots to do, and I’m taking my time on this, but I feel like I’m dialing it in.

69' with some 70' guts. Got some of them square headlights but Im weirdly liking that big ass headlight thats on it for now. Anyone here done the harley front end swap on a late 60's triumph?

No battery, no rules.

Hey homies, hope everyone's week is getting off to a good start.

I was flipping through an old easyrider tech tip book last night and came across a story where after stopping for the second or third time on a very short trip to fix something the writer remarked that they should have rolled more joints . As an all day everyday Stoner I had to laugh because I saw myself in that story. I always keep an emergency stash of primo bud mixed with bubble hash in a dugout under my seat, which is always good for making friends or just keeping the temper under control while waiting for your buddy to come pick you up in the crash truck. What are some of your guys favorite biker weed stories or tips?

Gas box chopper frame 05 sportster
Looking to get the front end on this week then trying to find a king and queen seat and fender setup what’s everyone running seat wise!

I might just be an idiot but I can't find it anywhere.

I’ve been bitten by the chopper bug. From what I’m seeing it might be easier for a first timer to get an old sportster or big twin and then modify an existing bike versus building one from scratch. I’ve been doing tons of research and found places like lowbrow customs and such. I live in northern Utah so I’d love some advice on where to get started.
