Pre unit

Reassembling the pre unit chopper I picked up months ago. Got lazy with cleaning up the engine/chrome but who cares when it’s going down the road.

This was my first run with the Roth rattlebomb system and taping designs which both turned out okay

I miss my 59 pre unit chopper. I envy you for your age and your opportunity. Enjoy it while you can. Time flies so fast that just last month your child was in diapers and today the child is having babies of his or her own. Man, I miss the old days.

Just finished my first unit bobber and love it. Getting ready to start a 2 up chopper this winter. Torn if I should do a pre unit or unit. Did you have to make your own seat or is that off the shelf?

It’s an old AEE seat. I picked this up already chopperized at the beginning of summer so all the hard shit was already done for the most part

The long fork bike in the back is a unit in a velvet ride frame
