Springer Chopper Build by Cybernetic Research Labs!

Custom Springer Chopper

A Cybernetic Research Labs Springer Chopper Ground Up Build:

We are honored to have received this fantastic set of pictures and details on a springer motorcycle custom built by Michael Smith with Cybernetic Research Labs, called "Blue".

We are honored because he used our plans to build it. But of course, the true honor goes to the builder for taking the time and effort to take it from a pile of tubing and parts to an amazing road worthy machine that anyone would be thrilled to own.

Follow along with the pictures below and then read the details of the build at the end:
