Ha, the last one I've bought is white, just for a change. The jamjar looks sweet but at least you're black Skorp hasn't got too many wheels :twisted:

I thought they stuck out to stop your engine casings getting gravel rash while you're cornering :?

I built a chop a few years ago and I've always fancied having a crack at another one, I'm alway on the look out for a suitable doner until I saw this picture on the random pics after signing in.

Now I've got a little devil on my shoulder shouting "chop the Baggy"

The thumper would be the perfect motor. Anyone seen or got any pics of MZ Chops?



I think If you took this bike and like lowered the rear I dunno - a foot ... remove the rear shock, and get the right size dual shocks and weld up the mounts for it and drop that back end to the point where it nearly hits the rear tire, I think it will be a "chopper" ... best of all, in a hour or 2, you can bolt the stock shock back on and ride it as an enduro.
Like they say of the classic "mullet" ... Business in the front, party in the back ...

Cool.

I like the car but hate, hate, hate the rear spoiler.
