So why chop a perfectly good bike?...

Well, there are lots of reasons and here are a few...

1. To quote a common 70's phrase... "Riding a chopper is outa sight man!"

2. Stock bikes don't fit individuals... you make yours to fit you. 

3. Stock bikes are compromises and don't do any one thing really well... you make yours to suit your riding style.

4. If you are into cruising, a well set up chopper is definitely safer and less tiring than a sport bike

5. You are a unique person and you like to be seen that way,  so what's better than personalising your bike. 

6. Chopping your bike is great therapy (and cheaper in the long run than a shrink!). 

7. Chopping your bike brings out your creativity. 

8. Chopping your bike introduces you to new skills. 

9. While you're in the shed, you're not in the pub (which should please the missus!). 

10. Chopping your bike stimulates the economy where it is most important... the little guy, the motorcycle shops, wreckers, your biker brother with something to sell etc.

11. Chopping and then riding your creation is one of the sweetest experiences in the world.

"Well, Rob chopped his bike... and it wasn't all fun,

But he sweated & swore 'til he got it done.

It's finished...

His baby's a beaut & tracks real sweet,

Roar of exhaust & stretched out feet,

Riding his chopper... he's one happy boy

Wind in his face... TOTAL JOY."

Rob,Qld, CB750/4...
