Title: Hardtail Savage Chop: Frame Welding Video #2
Post by grail21 on 11/30/07 at 10:59:37

Here is the second installment from the frame welding sessions on my Savage Chopper.

Watch it here: http://www.knucklebusterinc.com/features/2007/11/19/suzuki-savage-chopper-frame-welding-part-2/

In a couple weeks I'll be heading back down to see Dave to finish the last bits of welding (modifying the mustang tank, axle adjusters, seat mounts, other lil bits). The chain conversion is done, right now I'm working on the fake oil bag (elecontrics box) and some other fun bits like the figuring out all the wiring. More updates as they happen.

Thanks for all the kind words guys.

Dave (Tigman) is the man, his welds are incredible.

Project is starting to pickup again. Just about finished setting up my workshop at home (I was working out of a friends place for awhile). Waiting for the heater and workbench to get situated and I'll be good to go (my workshop is a 8x12 uninsulated plastic shed). I'll try to get some new photos of how it stands within the next week or two (it's sitting in the back of my van currently, so not super easy to photograph).
