“People” consistently posting bikes that they don’t own…
Getting lots and lots of posts from a few offenders (some have recently been banned) just spamming the sub with pictures of bikes. (It’s likely that they’re bots but the last one we banned went on to make some really aggressive threats that sounded very human…) Some of them are clearly way out to lunch and got the axe, but some are posting relevant and legitimately cool bikes, but it just feels annoying because they aren’t contributing in the way of any original content.
Mod team is inclined to just start banning people who abuse posting random choppers from the internet, but if the rest of the sub likes seeing these bikes we can also let it slide. I get that people want to maybe share or discuss a cool bike that isn’t theirs, but if your ONLY contribution is consistently posting other people’s stuff we think it should be no warning and straight to ban. What say you?

Regarding BOTPOSTING and non-relevant content.
We've never previously banned anyone but we've banned several people (who were actually probably bots) this week that are just posting random barely chopper-relevant motorcycle content. Please just report all karma farming posts and I'll nix em.
If your neighbor REALLY DOES have a cool chopper or you saw a cool (actual) chopper on the street and you want to post a picture of it, put a little effort into it the post or it's just going to result in a ban.
We get that chopper can have a bit of a flexible definition, but if you're posting about your chopper or someone else's chopper, and it's got rear shocks on it... think long and hard about what you're about to do. We are willing to admit that swingarm choppers exist, but it's certainly not the norm.
Lastly, this is NOT the place for fat-tire, 2000's era OCC bikes. If it's got some weird-ass scoopy rear fender, consider posting it on r/DumpsterDiving
That is all.

Chipping away at my first chopper build
Birth year evo (90)

Had the best intentions of building a chopper, but am happily saving this one from the clutches of neglect. Just a few more kinks to work out and my ‘78 CB750 will be a menace on the streets 😎

Some pics of my bike from saxmedia
saxmedia posted some killer shots of my 98 Evo the other day on Instagram that he took at the Salt City Invasion show a little while back so I thought I'd share here also. He did an amazing job of making my bike look good!

Born Free Texas was awesome.
galleryI could post 1000 pics and still not show everything that was happening out there. Already looking forward to the next one.

What started as a dream and a vision...
gallery...has become reality. And it's better than I ever could've imagined. Couple days left of nice weather and she'll rest for the winter. Forks, sissy bar, and exhaust and I'll call it done.

Softail update 3
galleryAlways hated this cross plate on bikes that people make into customs. So I cut it off. Sectioned some tubing and welded it in so now I have a proper looking spot to install seat bungs for the solo saddle.

Progress update
galleryNot really sure if anyone really cares or remembers, but here's a progress update on my 2000s era chopper tribute. Finally was able to get all of the drivetrain and Belt drive mocked up. Now just need to weld the tabs for the tank and rear fender and start looking for a 19 inch front wheel and I'll be sending it off for paint.

mid shaft on a cone shovel?
I got a great deal on a 1965 mid shaft transmission and i was wondering if its possible to pair with a 1982 shovel. i’m planning on running an alternator tin primary inner with a 1.5 belt drive. I’ve heard people say you can use a mid shaft on an open belt setup, but can’t find any reliable info on how difficult it is or if it truly even works. any help would be appreciated!

Softail update 2
One axle plate welded in, so I had to nab a quick picture. Just spent this morning working on my welder, so later this week I’ll do the other side.
