What's up everybody, My name is Nicke and I'm a skateboarder from Stockholm Sweden that just built a Panhead "chopper".
This build up thread will be my first post on here.

Starting to put the motor back together...

1957 Pan dressed with a polished 1950 Cam Cover...

 

[Nicke]

There's just something about those motors...

 

[Nicke]

1953 frame getting prepped for the paint job.

 

[Nicke]

Early Sporty getting chopped to get rid of the tunnel, and dressed with a flat bottom, the brackets in the pic was cut off in the process...

 

[Nicke]

Triumph fender getting chopped up and prepped for paint, my buddy Totte Landberg did the paint job, alot more flake to be done when this pic was taken.

 

[Nicke]

Putting it all back together.

Got the motor back in...

 

[Nicke]

Handlebars in the making, I did 'em in 1" polished stainless tubing...

 

[Nicke]

Prepping the clutch, I figured I'll give this 10 finger swap meet find a try.

At the "Jokers Car and Bike Show" two weekends ago, it had no electrical system still so I put it on the Elco'. (yes we're drunk in this pic)

Nice Ride Nicke!
Do you also have a pic of the left hand side? (primary and shifter set up)
And are you planning to take it to bikeshows in Europe this year?

-Marc

Thanx Knuck, no I'm sorry I dont have any pic from that side in my computer, it got a "open chain" set up right now, suicide type clutch and jockey shifter, but I'll put on a primary cover I think... I'll post a pic of it later ones I go down to the garage. I think I'ma try to ride down to some bike shows this summer, sure!

 

[Nicke]

Hmmm... I'm puzzled about the toolbox... It doesn't really belong there. Is it perhaps because you did not want to cut the frame and it's there to hide the bracket?

Ah well... taste is personal and it's still a great ride!
And I'm jealous.

Yeah, I've had second thought about that tool box myselfe too... And you're right about that I did not wanted to cut the frame mount for it, however this is how it's gonna look for some time now, might do something different with it later on.

Another amazing Swedish motorcycle, you're probably like 15 years old and drive an Ardun powered '32 Ford too....SO THEN, is that the front end of a FRONT ENGINE DRAGSTER poking out in the background? HUH? IS IT? Where do you all get the cash for all this? I doubt it's from makin' SWISS CHEESE.

...Yeah, so!?

I get my cash from bakin' soda and I'm 14, not 15, ok...

 

[Nicke]

that a real fender or a jammer re-pop???

That's a real old one, it took some work to get it smooth...
I heard the reproduced was pretty nice???
