Most EXTREME 1978 suzuki gs1000 chopper bobber EVER built
I built this 1978 Suzuki gs1000 chopper about 12 years ago. Second bike I ever built. Finally got around to getting her on my channel. Not much original on this one. 2 into 1 4" exhaust on each side. Custom built swingarm/airtank to fit that super wide 300mm tire that is stretched 12". Air shocks on the rear in the middle. Air suspension gives the rear about 8 inches of travel. She rides like you're floating on air. Literally. Yamaha warrior gas tank. Harley brakes, controls, and custom harley wide glide front end. 1 1/2" custom bars. Harley 21"x 3.5" front wheel. Custom dual k&n air intake system. The engine and carbs are stock from 1978 just jetted a little differently. Runnig an extended front sprocket that is supported by an end bearing support.

    Perfection!! Can you get a little more detailed? i.e. the rail against the wall; what is the design, the lock mechanism etc... Like everyone else has exclaimed about your build, this is absolutely the best I have seen. Your HIRED!!!! :)

    • @164ChopShop
      @164ChopShop 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The track is made of 5 pieces of flat stock. It's the front plate with the holes for the safety latch with two other 6" flats welded to back side, the whole length, that are sandwiched between 5 studs in the wall. One stud in the middle and two on each side then bolted together all in one sandwich. I used a stud to space them when i welded those on. Then the two other straps that you see are welded to the 6" pieces going the whole length and are there for the bearings of the train to run in. Those are just screwed to the studs with small cabinet screws and they aren't really holding any weight. They are spaced back from the back side of the front plate to the size of my rollers because you need a track that will hold both directions. The top rollers will be pushing out and the lower rollers will be pushing back into the wall as it goes up and down. There are also rollers that hold the train from binding left and right that run against the sides of the front plate (upper and lower, both sides). If you don't have a safety latch this track really doesn't have to hold any weight it just has to act as a track and could be made more simple. As soon as you latch the elevator into the track it instantly has to hold all of the weight of the elevator and whatever you have on it. Kinda tough to describe. Hope this doesn't confuse the situation.

    Hello Rick. This is just a thank you. I designed a 6' X 14' lift and I needed a starting place to design a safety latch system. Mine requires 6 pins that work together. My cam system has to be horizontal. The frame of the platform is made of 2" X 3" box so I have only 3" to hide it in. 3 on each side of the platform. I'm using a take off of Wesley treat design with the cable running through the center 2" X 3" X 164" center box of the platform. The lift will live on the second floor of my barn and the supports for the mechanism are 2 6" X 18" LVLs that flank the ends of the opening. The 2 Posts at the corner of the opening near the posts supporting the LVLs will be for guidance. The idea is to have as little footprint on the first floor as possible. I want to use your swing out welder mount. I tried to find a place to buy the swing out vise system. So many great ideas. Thank you so much.
