thought id work on another Revell chopper. these are great kits!
so heres where im at, im going for no fenders no fancy junk on it kind of look.
im gonna use those wheels to but they will be black.
heres the frame so far. i literally just put another coat of cement over all the joints. i'll let this set up overnight then sand and fill seams, i want a nice smooth frame!

Looking great!, good idea making a chopper bike with a sportive touch, what color are you planning it to be?

finished clear coating the tank!
also after looking at those wheels they seem to look a little like a swastika lol.. so i decided to change them out for these which i think will look sweet all black!

Oh well... fantastic!
The old rims didn't remind me a svastika, more those japanese combat wheels... New wheels appear bigger in diameter due to the "open" (looks like a stretched skin... LOL) design, old one looks massive, badass. May be a combination? Svastika back and stretched castor skin in front? :D
Jokes apart, great job, I must resist to those customs fashination!!!!

Hi James,
well done so far!!
I´d prefer to lower the gas cell over the frame, but that´s a question of personal taste

i added some PE , one under the tank to act as the mounting bracket, and some to cover the screw on the triple trees.

UUUUOOOOOOHHHH!!!!!, It looks really agressive with all that black, what are you planning for the exhaust, thats key in a chopper bike.

Coming along nicely James! Looks really cool. Are you going to weather it further? Transmission looks a bit clean.
