1968 Honda Trail 90 chopper project
This is how it started, a free Trail Bike. Bone stock and original running condition. I had been following Chalopy.blogspot.com/ for a few weeks and it felt like destiny knocking. You really need to check out Ralph's blog, very nice and he spells much better than me! Tod my buddy next door really helped with sanding, painting, and talking me outta bad ideas! Some of the bikes I was seeing on Chalopyblog then and now are works of art, not built to ride, but still hugely creative! Most of the customs of the Asian style are meant to ride, some barley, but are still used and driven at rallies and shows. I will be trying to get mine into a few local shows and test the reactions, and see if i can get it in, American culture is not very supportive of adults riding small displacement motorcycles, I hope to help change that, what with lots of folks wanting to be more "green" and thinking there carbon footprint needs to be smaller. I have been involved in building , customizing, repairing and maintaining just about anything that spews hydrocarbons and I will say that this little Honda project has been, and still is, a blast!
