Was reading some old post on choppers and bobbers in he forum and thought I would give this site a plug:

This guy lives here in Tupelo, MS and does all his work out of his garage. He primarily uses Triumphs and does beautiful work. Really nice guy!

You rarely see Nortons chopped, even more rare to see one bobbed.

Don't think Dan would chop or bob a Norton, he has respect for the brand. Mainly has a stock of Triumphs and a few BSAs. Still, gorgeous work!

Did Dan do this? I haven't spoke with him in abut a year or so. Taillight looks like his!

Don't think so. Not his style. Found on the web somewhere. Not my style but found it interesting enough to save...

Where did the rest of the spokes go? I guess this is for looking at ?

I like that one okay - NO PIPE WRAP! That, in itself, is rare.

Grandpaul, check out the angry monkey site. Dan does not use tape and he does awesome work! I wish I had just an ounce of his talent.

:?:

I am guessing the lack of crossings is what your noticing. Quick spoke count shows nothing missing on the back and at least 36 spokes on front.

I agree that it's probably more for looking at, but the condescension isn't good... :|

The little brass looking bell on the right rear.

Don't pick on the tiny light as a distraction for road worthyness as my buddy has a antique light that only a 1/4" pin point but is more attention getting far off than a big ole dull red variety. So at least the safety features are there if not the creature features. Some of these odd ball art deco steam punk excessive styling features may rub on on Peel.
