an old friend of mine asked back in winter to help him with some shots of his chopper. it was a life dream of his to get into some biker mags. he even arranged the obligatory bikini model.
we met after work at a biker bar south of raleigh. i shot some pool, had a beer or two, hung out with the owner and his minature doberman Spike while i waited.
once my friend showed up, we rolled down to a nearby lake for some shots - the bikini model was stuck at work.
we got a couple test shots in that afternoon, and we'll do the real set next tuesday.
Hey Max, let's start maintenance work!
In an old garage a mechanic is working on a chopper motorcycle for maintenance. The faithful red cat Max look at him curiously, radio tuned on classics, sounds blues songs.
I have still inserted a couple of Modulex bricks as small parts boxes.
The wooden walls of the garage are built with a technique shared by Ralf Langer, thanks and credits to him!
Twenty five years ago today, 29th March 1986, 20205 sits at the rear of Edinburgh's Haymarket depot.
Chopper looked to Craig for relief from the torture, but Craig was too busy responding to all of your comments.
This is the mill that is making my triple trees, head set and brackets for my chopper. I took this shot a little while ago for work as a possible catologue shot.
The frame is almost complete just waiting for the brackets for the rear axle to be milled then i'll weld them on. Then i can mount the rear wheel, which will enable me to fit a fixed fender and position the seat.
I lost the drawing i had, but i'll try get another shot uploaded this week that gives a better idea of how it will look ;-)
Have a great week !!
The Chopper started in the early 1920's with Bob -Jobs and Cut Downs as a way of lightening a motorcycle to make it go faster . After the World War 11 returning American servicemen had the money to by the latest Harley Davidson Knuckleheads and the skills to modify them according to their whims . The genre evolved until the 1950's and 60's , choppers became platforms for artistic and mechanical expression with the extravagant use of chrome , wildly extended springer folks and brilliant paintwork on the tank . Dennis Hoppers 1969 film Easy Rider gave the central roll to two Harley - Davidson choppers there by enshrining the design in popular culture .
The engine in this bike is the classic HD Knucklehead , this one dating from 1941 , the bike constructed in c 1973 .
Engine : 1207 cc OHV 45 V twin
Power : 53 HP

Last view from the chopper show, along the route of the Lighthouse Century
During COVID, Like so many others, I've turned inward, so, a metal sculpture in our living room, we named "Chopper", got a new, menacing look.
Just got me a chopper and I'm feeling pumped!
Another Iron Forge entry. I've used the seed part 2 times, not counting the biker minifig.

Meet Chopper, my friend's new colt who was 5 days old when this image was made. One of the great themes of Easter is new life, so this is my offering to remind us that Christ died and arose so that we can have new life in Him.
I am not very skilled in animal photography, especially horses who run the minute you approach them with a camera. I am going to "study up" and go back and try again. I would have preferred to not have his legs cropped off, but I wasn't fast enough on the trigger! I think this image does show his magnificent musculature even at this tender age. By the way, he is a quarter horse and will be used to run barrels by his 50+ yr.-old owner, who has done this all her life and can't get enough of it even now.
