How To Build A Chopper!

Here's How To Build A Chopper And Build
The Custom Bike Of Your Dreams...

If you want to learn how to build a chopper from scratch or put together a chopper from a bike kit, I have really good news for you. It's not as difficult as you might think. Here are some tips and advice on custom bike building...

You should understand the basics of how a chopper (and a regular motorcycle) is actually pieced together.

There are two ways to learn:

  1. Jump in with two feet and build a custom chopper piece by piece.

  2. Build a kit bike first. This way you have all the parts you need and it will be a great way to learn how to build a chopper with less frustration. You will find out about your strengths and weaknesses, what you like or dislike in parts, and you will accelerate your learning for your next custom chopper built from scratch.

You'll find them to be informative and helpful in your bike building efforts. Many first time and long time builders learned something new from these videos and even inspired several home builders to start their projects.

Either way you'll need a tool that will help you save time and aggravation. Whether you want to learn how to build a chopper from scratch or build a kit bike, the little known custom bike building and metalworking techniques revealed only in the Covell Creative Metalworking videos and Michael Durham custom bike building videos are highly recommended for novice and experienced builders. Even if your a seasoned veteran of 40 years.

Also, if you are relatively new to the nuances of building custom motorcycles or don't have loads of cash to work with, read this information on building a cheap chopper: Build a cheap chopper.

The second step...or baby step, is to read How To Build A Chopper Frame. It comes with a bonus report which will be a tremendous help in your bike building efforts.

We also recommend this book: How To Build A Kit Bike, by Timothy Remus, Jonathan Wood.

I know, it seems like a lot, but preparation is really important, especially when you are learning how to build a chopper or custom bike...

You can always save money, but saving time is more important. In other words you can always make or save money, but you can never get your time back. So going in prepared is very important.

If you want to learn how to build a chopper or kit bike the right way these video's (DVD's) will show you step by step how to build your own chopper, frame, gas tank, and many of the fine details of building and metal working that would normally take you years to figure out. They will help you save tons of time and money! When you're done send me a picture :-)
