Unreal. I remember staring at a Triumph chop in Jack n Rohans auto elec shop (Neil Mann's) off Elizabeth St. Melbourne and my bro Carter at the time says" I made that front end"
SC was stamped (Southern Choppers) NICE. You might av seen a few in Lances shop in the 70's 80's. Both Barbarians. Lances trike and Lance were at the start of Mad Max briefly.

Yep, those were the days! Jim of Sonic Choppers is still around making exhaust pipes, it's great to hear his stories from the old days, although the construction methods they used back then sound pretty primitive.. here's a few Aussie pics for you..

 

[Daddy Boy]

Yeah, that's grouse Jims' still going. He made overs for me 30 yr ago. Melbourne has got a great deal of history, they're all still out there...somewhere... usually somewhere quiet, away from all the shit in their own shed workin' away at somethin' noone else has done!

This is such an awesome thread.

I put this in the wrong thread.. this is where this belongs. She's almost done, '77 750

A JJ member built this bike, I'm sure of it, and hoiked up a real good build thread about it. Anybody remember who that was? The JJ's Search apparatus, as usual, gets a whiff of my karma and won't have anything to do with me.

Thanks.

I absolutely LOVE this blue Triumph Chopper, and stared at this pic and studied it for hours before committing to chopping and stretching my Triumph frame with similar dimensions.

 

[Tricky-Ricky]

Here is one of my T160 old school chop, will put up some of my past bikes.

Classy.
