Does the Pope wear a Funny Hat?

Been holding out for a warmer day so I could sneak out to the garage and knock out my popes hat sissy bar. Finally decided not to let the Minnesota weather get between me and my welding. Put the kid down for a nap and got to it. Just needs a little touch up with the grinder and the Yammy is out of here. If you’re looking for an XS650 chopper that runs like a rapped date – hit me up. Everything was gone over this winter and it will officially be for sale sometime in the next week or so. Check craigslist, xs650chopper.com, egay, etc, etc.

For Sale! – Raw Fender to CHOP

Like new 36 ford “spare tire” fender for sale. Totally unmolested. Black – still has the lock down hoop in tact. The fender is ribbed down the center and you could easily make 2-3 really cool rat style fenders out of this piece. This thing is almost 90 years old but is still in really great shape. I bought it for a chop project but ended up going with a duck tail instead. No major dings, dents or damage anywhere. READY TO CHOP! $225 – obo – see forum classifieds for more info.

Rusty Chop ~ 3 hours in.

So here’s the Rusty Chop about 3 hours into assembly. I was in charge of snapping photos and drinking his beers. I think I did a damn god job myself. The Rusty Chop looks good too. It’s a ’79 xs650 with a kansas customs hardtail, maxis whhitewalls, my custom chopper wiring, and a sporty tank. Unseen is a set of custom made shorty pipes and a prettt heavy duty rear fender. Those whitewalls add just the right touch of bling to this rusty rocket. Check back daily. More chopper blog to come.
