    Coffin tank, extended front forks, and a king & queen seat with a sissy bar ala 70s style. Lovecthe 70s style choppers. I've built many bicycles with this sort of style but never two exactly the same.

    Iam excited. For my taste nothing's more old skool than a rigid with a springer front end.Iam a huge fan of the Panhead (love the lines of panhead frames) so frame number 1 with the springer front would be my pick
    Really looking forward to watching this build. Mate ur shed is a treasure trove of bloody awesome stuff. You must feel like a kid candy shop when u look around it.👍👍

    My vote's for frame #1 , springer front end

  • @Mattherat
    @Mattherat 21 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

    I know that I would like to see you use a rigid frame, narrow glide front end with the 21 and front drum squeezed in. High and tight! Thanks Mick!!

  • @rayi666
    @rayi666 21 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    The pan head frame with a springer front end. A magic start to a great chopper. Keep up the great work mate cheers from South Australia 🇦🇺

    Straight leg frame, narrowed fatbob tanks on risers, double leg springer front end with drum brake conversion. Panhead motor, kick start, suicide clutch with hand shifter........

    Awesome channel Mick, remember the old (90's) California style chops... Long, Low, Narrow, Raked, Streched tins,, your softail frame would suit nicely

    Early Pan Head frame seems the best choice to me.
    The straight leg is too good to chop around.
    Go oldskool all the way. High mount Fisco tank, rocker foot clutch, jockey shift.
    Original springers with mechanical front and rear brake setup.
    Or use the narrow glide front end and extend the legs by +2 for a nice comfy front end with a 21” wheel.
    3 circuit electrics (ignition, charging,lighting)
    16” rear or 18” if you have one, 21” front laced to the drum.
    Like seeing a chop with out cluttered bars, no master cylinder and only one lever for the mechanical front brake.
    Building my own Stroker shovel chop along these lines

    Love the Billy bike ,but I love springers . Low lean& mean preferably but long stretched out is old school kool ! Either hard tail frame but #2 would be less cutting but I'm just lazy! Can't wait to see the progress on this build !

  • @asgaardnext3653

    Use the pan bowleg frame with FLH Complete front guard reversed on the rear , STRUTLESS , with suicide clutch , hand shift , drum brake front and back , extended oversized hydra glide front end no guard with 21 front wheel ,, tank could be early single super glide,, and ratchet lid box and shovel motor, open chain primary , with mid controls , put that early Linkert square float carb on it , twin magnetos , handmade oil tank , with oil coolers in frame down tubes

    Living in Berdo my whole life,working in a body shop at an early age, watching the bikes run up and down Cajon Blvd, in Muscoy, Ca.Wish bone early, the custom fab springer,21 in. Fat bobbs,5 gals. Knuckle, or pan, tire shredder. Long early model back fender. Old school oil tank, polished. Jockey shift. No front fender. Only back brakes, leaks oil. With a bad ass paint job with flames. Thank you. Possum.

    A hundred years ago, as a kid I read a quote in a magazine that was "anyone can restore a car (bike) but it takes guts to chop one". The early frames are rare and cool - so let's chop one of them with a fabbed fuel tank.

    As long as you don't build it to look like mine, Mick. Always wanted you to paint my one. 1960s style U model Flathead. You remember Blackie's one? Maybe you could help me? I'm trying to find a pan drum brake hub to lace up to a 21" wheellike the one at 12:10 or complete wheel to fit my 6" over springer forks
