Looks like the bike was patterned off of Tacit Blue, not the B2...

There seems to be a theme here. We don't all hate choppas...we just hate gawdy over-the-top choppas.

Most of the ones posted here that people like are minimalist. Go figure!  ;D

I puke at the thought of OCC chops, and I'm a H-D guy from way back.  There was one I liked: The Snap-On bike, that is, I liked it until I saw it in person.  The Snap-On rep wouldn't (couldn't) start it, and you could see where someone had wailed on it with a hammer.

Oh, and I want to correct something someone said about OCC bikes being Harleys.  They aren't.  They do use aftermarket engines that are improved versions of H-D's Evo mill, but that's as close as they get.  I've never seen a single H-D part used.  Maybe I'm picking the fly shit out of the pepper, but there it is.

Custom chops?  I like much of the stuff from Exile, Chica, and Zero out of Japan.  Don't care for Sucker Punch Sally's chopper stuff, but their S&S 50th anniversary line of modernized retro Duo-Glides are pretty cool.  I got to see them up close when I dropped by their Phoenix shop.  Couldn't find the front door and wound up going in the service bay door.  All the guys working on the bikes were very cool and hospitable.  They said, "Come on in, look around."  That is, look around at what they were doing in the shop, not, "Get up front to the retail area."  They even took the time to talk about the giant CNC mill they were using to make those hideous billet chopper wheels.  I hate those wheels and all billet crap, but I love machining processses, and this one was pretty cool.  If you're ever in Phoenix, you should stop by.

Here's a chopper from back in the day.  That's NorDog about 18 years and 49 pounds ago!  If I had it to do over I would have done things much differently in that build.  But I was on the right track (for my tastes anyway).

I gotta get 'round to getting the tins repainted, too...

no flake, but certainly in that chopper/custom vein. I sense that if/when I finish my shit, it won't be that popular here.

oh well.  [drink] [evil]

There's some nicely done customs in this thread, but the original pic of the OCC B2 chopper looks like ass. :P

The comment on a toy chopper made into a full scale bike is right on.  That bike looks like something HotwheelsTM would make. [laugh] 

Besides I don't like grey bikes all that much.   [roll]

Someone chimed in before that their designs are really unique...

The same thing can be said about what I  'produce' when I take a dump.

'nuff said.

I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...
