Well, I wasn't here before the big crash. I found TotalMotorcycle in a Google search and thought I'd see what it's about. Anyhow, the name's ChopperCharles, because I own a CX500 I've turned into an old-school chop. The entire build history is here: http://www.cxboard.netfirms.com/cxChopper
Other than that, I also own a V65 Magna that I've been using as a touring bike for the last few years. Big windshield and bags and all. But now I also have an Ace 750, and that's been relegated to touring duty (I have some bolt on bags and a windshield that I can attach in like 10 minutes). So I've decided to take the Magna and turn it into a true street rod.
Other than modifying my own bikes, I also pick up old junkers that have been sitting for years, and either restore them or if they're too far gone I'll part them out on eBay. It makes me a bit of money, but mostly I do it because I love working on bikes.... well... no, that's not it. I enjoy riding all types of bikes, and I enjoy bringing a bike back from the dead, and being the first person to swing a leg over it and ride it in years.
