I was just revisiting this classic the other night. As a young lad, there was no more comprehenisve textbook for me on the chopped motorcycle than chopperdaves website. What i was seeing here wasnt the accepted norm of the newstand time. All i could think about was chopped panhead-chopped panhead-chopped panhead (got one now!)
There was very little online to blow your mind with, no chopcult or jockey journal, Everything here was pre-blog, pre-Instagram, pre-facebook(which i still dont understand), hell I dont think anyone was texting either.
Just look at the brutality of the Morton Friis Hoodlum Harleys feature!!!!!
If this website was a magazine, the cover of mine wouldve fallen off and most pictures clipped and pasted to the garage walls long ago.

Thank you ChopperDave for kickstarting it all

Totally... Dave opened my eyes. There would have been no GK website or mag without his inspiration.
