Been Around the Block
Introducing my new build, Project "BoardChop". The look I'm going for with this build, is modern Boardtracker meets chopper. Here are few pictures of some Ideas I drew up.

Ended up deciding to go with a banana style girder front-end I had fabbed up.

Custom Round spoked Invader wheels I plan to run. Front will be a 21x2.15 and I plan to go wider in the rear at 21-3.5"

I was planning to use these inverted levers on the last build but I think it would suit this one more.

Also lever covers I plan to use.

Test fitting BoardChop. Trying to decide whether to go with mid,fwd or rear controls.

Found the perfect headlight to mount in between the girder. Pretty happy with it. Might put a gusset over the top like a mini fairing/shield.

Ground and smoothed out all the plug welds on frame. Looks like a one piece now. Axle Plate had to be widened to accept the Mr Lucky's 20mm to 3/4" harley axle. New spacers in and wheels centered. Installed rotor and sprocket.
I put on the mock motor and exhaust. I plan to go with a different exhaust however.
Also replace the front tire with matching Avon venom's.

AWESOME! So what are the approximate dates on the posts in real time?
What did you happen to do with the original girder you didn't use?
 
I got my frame back from Voodoo Vintage at the and of November Last year. The last post Is where I'm currently at today.
I still have the old girder. Not sure what I plan to do with it.
