Attack Choppers: Random

CPU is STILL broken guys....

... I do apologize for the huge delay.
Money is as tight as can be, and my CPU has seen better days.

On the up side, I have two new articles in the works for your reading pleasure, the second draft is almost done on one of them, and another in the planning stages now.

I will do my best to get some new pics up soon.

Hope you guys are getting some riding done! It was 26 degrees this morning... yuck.

Tell you what... I feel so bad about this huge gap in my posting... I will post whatever weird and random stuff I can find on my laptop, OK?
It won't be the usual fare, but lets just see what I can find that might function as decent external insipration for you builders out there, alright?

My chopper manifesto

I do not accept the assumption that a rigid framed motorcycle cannot go fast, stop quickly, or handle well. I want my choppers to perform above the social accepted performance standard for rigid framed motorcycles; (that is to say: BAD)
These are the standards I have set before myself to achieve with said choppers:

My choppers must be able to Evade, Pursue, and allow me to survive.
My choppers must be light.
My choppers must be skinny and be able to navigate tight traffic with ease.
My choppers must go fast, accelerate hard, stop well, handle good, and do so without fusing my vertabrae.
My choppers must not scrape hard parts when leaning.
My choppers are not bar hoppers.
My choppers are not non-functioning scuplture.
My choppers must function like a real, useable vehicle.
My choppers must be a valid mode of transportation.
My choppers must not be built for other peoples enjoyment or entertainment.
My choppers must be built for me and my preferences and standards alone.
My choppers must not be fragile.
My choppers must be able to hop curbs, hit potholes, skid, wheelie, do burn outs and crash without breaking.
My choppers must be able to be ridden on all sufaces (Pavement, dirt, gravel, snow, sand, mud)
