Hey fellas, welcome to the latest Atomic Venture (http://www.atomicindustry.com/). This forum is still in beta, but you are more than welcome to begin posting and enjoying the atmosphere.

We hope for this place to become a portal into mechanical styled choppers and bobbers for you guys. You won't see fat tired and over-done stretch jobs here - just real bikes ridden by real folks. That's the idea anyway...

But who's gonna lead the joint? I have a passion for traditional hot rods and customs, but have always loved bikes as well. That said, I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as a lot of you guys out there in the two-wheeled world. And it's with that in mind, that I've decided to hand over the editorial role to somone more in the know... He's in Paso right now, so I'll let him introduce himself when he gets back.

Until then, kick away and see if you can get this place fired up.

This will be a great place for the two wheeled hot rods. How about trikes? Is stuff like Roth's trikes welcome here? Dumb Question!!

This site is gonna rock...looking forward to seeing some real, down & dirty home-built scoots of all makes. Cartoon "Theme Bikes" have left me bewildered...longing for the days not long ago when only True Believers built and rode choppers and bobbers.

We can relive those simpler times again at last...thanks for steppin' up to make this happen!

Ride On!

This is just awesome. I get back from Paso and this is going!!

My passion is for anything that has a big engine and goes super fast. Sometimes its nice just to have something a bit slower thats super loud. I have been into bikes way longer than hotrods. I started riding dirtbikes when I was 8 and always had bike since then. My first street bike was a Yamaha RD400, then onto a Kawasaki H1 and rode a Kawasaki H2R. Later I found a Norton 750 Commando that I built from the ground up, then selling for a Norton 650SS. I still own the 650SS and have been dragging it around with me for nearly 10 years. Maybe this summer I will get to it. I've had many other bikes along the way and currently ride a drag style panhead named 1/4 Scorcher. Its the first bike I completly hand built.

This board will reflect the traditional side of bike owners and bike builders. After briefly reading new posts, its totally cool that people are submitting usefull info such as wiring diagrams, because for most people thats the biggest nightmare of completing a bike. This is the type of information this board needs and will be added to the TECH section and is totally encouraged. I hope to add usefull tips as we go. I dont see the format changing much from the HAMB, but irrelevant posts will be deleted.

If you have any questions you can always PM me.

Forever Two Wheels.
