Re: New Chopper wannabe
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and Welcome Aboard!
If you need help/advice building a scoot, you've come to the right place. I'll try to get some pics up asap of three builds I have going right now, and there's many others in here to add to the knowledge base. Rock on and welcome.

Hey man, great to see you here!! So often this build gig turns into greed and money. I have always said less is more and you can infact put together an awesome chop on a shoe string budget!

Re: New Chopper wannabe
Odin glad you made it here, lots of great folk willing to lend a helping work or two, and if close enough probably a hand as well.
