My chopped 75 goldwing

[tmckillop]

This is what I did to my 75 wing this past winter....rode it bone stock for 18 years, pulled a sidecar with it for 5 and finally got up the nerve to chop it. It's a hoot to ride. I'm a sculptor from ann arbor, mi and I build choppers for friends in my spare time.

Oh my! That is certainly different. Welcome aboard. Are those car tires on it?

 

[tmckillop]

Thanks, those are shinko 130x90x16" motorcycle tires.

I'd like to read all about your build. Maybe you can do a write up? Did you take pictures during the transformation?

[mwbill37841]

[tmckillop]

I do have some pics of the build progress and will post some, I sold the sidecar a few years back. The wheel is an 80's Henry Abe seven star mag I got off ebay for 80.00 I wanted to match up the 16" harley front rim with a 16" rear. I'm gonna lace up a 16" harley rim to a stock gl1000 hub this winter. Thanks for all the kind words, I know this isn't everyones cup of tea
