          Looks great! There is nothing like having a unique ride that you built yourself!

            nice work

            good work on the scotters. A side note to gaffer if you use photobucket for pics they resize automaticly to fit on there site,then you can also reize once it's in your album. Edit than resize.

              Don't bring a bike like that to WI. I can see 3 violations. No front fender, no signals, too small headlight. Also you need a stop, tail, and license plate light. The last time I rode through Nebraska, they had several billboards telling about the helmet law. In WI we don't need them, but have many other restrictions that a lot of states don't have. Our former Gov, Tommy Thompson was a BIG harley man, and he vetoed several attempts to initiate a helmet law. We are on our second Gov since, and I am amazed that we still don't have a helmet law. Sure wish I could legally run a bike like that.

                Sweet - Dude

                Another sweet looking ride. Saving some pics for future inspiration.

                I like those bars. Where did you find them?

                  tank

                  I'm curious about the tank. I have a larger, more rectangular tank on my Standard. What bike did that tank come from? Special? 650? I like the way it looks.

                    BARS AND TANK

                    I BUILT THE BARS ON BOTH BIKES BY MODIFYING THE ORIGINALS AND THE TANK IS STOCK ON A SPECIAL.

                    ANYONE OUT THERE THAT IS A HUSKER FOOTBALL FAN WILL ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE THIRD BIKE IN THIS SERIES (CAN I CALL IT A "SERIES" ?) IT'S GONNA BE A REAL ATTENTION GETTER. MAKE SURE TO CHACK BACK TO SEE THE FINISHED HUSKER CHOP.

                      Nice work! You need to set up a web page for these things.

                        I love the way the bike looks C.A., but can't help but notice that the rear shocks look like they're buckling a little bit, is that safe? I wish I could bring my bike by you so you could do the same for me... At least the rear, I like the lower look with the smaller seat.

                            Good lookin' scoot! Good job!
                            Forward controls would be a nice touch, but you'd probably have to fab up or modify a set to fit. If I were sittin' on that low down bad boy (I'm 6'5"), my knees would be up around my ears....which isn't a bad thing on some occasions, but not for bikin'. Did you cut down the stock shocks? If so, I'd be interested to know how you did that.

                              SHOCKS AND SPRINGS

                              BOTH BIKES STILL HAVE THE STOCK SHOCKS AND SPRINGS. ON THE FIRST ONE THE SPRINGS WERE CUT, TWISTED TOGETHER AND WELDED. ON THE SECOND ONE THEY WERE JUST CUT. THE FIRST SET RIDES A LITTLE BETTER BECAUSE THEY DON'T BOTTOM OUT, BUT HE DIDN'T LIKE THE LOOK OF THEM BEING TWISTED TOGETHER, SO HE PUTS UP WITH A LIL' ROUGHER RIDE.

                                I wouldn't do the Husker theme. A Sooner ride would be much more eye catching.
