Well it seems you guys like WILD so I've decided to start my other chopper. This one will be well detailed and customized. So far I took the skull air cleaner and attatched the handle bars to it. I may scratch new bars later... The triple trees are from the aces wild kit, I used the the trees from this kit (crusader) on my other bike for more of the rider friendly look. I want this one to make the woman and children cry when its done I plan on using some brass on it (what else is new, lol) for the old school sissy bar, and possible a new tank. All chrome will be stripped and rechromed with alclad.

Early mock up:





This will be a slow project, the pro mod comes first!

Good start Tommy. Looks like the makings of a wild HD.

Those wires look pretty nice. I am assuming they are from the kit? 2 halves? Or can I hope for 2 halves of spokes and 2 outer rims?

Yes they are from the kit, both chopper kits come with a set. They are just 2 halves but still are quite nice.

I decided to fool around with this one today a little. I gave it more of an extreme rake by extending the triple trees, a little more works needs to be done at the top of the frame where the trees connect. I am building my own tank out of brass... I really want something different so I have no idea what its going to look like.




I know at this point I want to chrome the rear fender... possibly the frame too but I don't want to over do it.
