Nothing that Matt Spencer couldn`t liberate with his angle grinder...& contribute to re-animating a couple of worthwhile Commandos.
Loved the Mr Mackie reference, too. Has anyone not seen the South Park take on "Biker Lifestylers"- highly recommended..

Hey thats mine from last summer!
 
Here it is this fall. I added, swap meet parts: Oil tank, tail light, handle bars, head light, front tire. Front end I got a 1.5 years ago from a friend, wasn't sure what it was at the time.
Brand new 70's seat from a friend a got about a year ago. Made the sissy bar to go with the seat.


Commando Choppers please


Commando Choppers please


Here it is today,
Commando Choppers please
 
Alrighty SK cleaned up good to show off the excessive maleness of peacock sissy bar. What size does the rear tire say? Does the wind catch seat top to lighten steering with feet up front? Will other Commando riders be seen with you?

I think its a 5.00-16 speed grip. It is light enough in the front to do wheelies, but not at speed!
I know some Triumph and HD chopper riders that would be happy to be seen with me. Norton riders, can't think of one, haha.
 
That robust rear tire appeals to me for my Peel deal. Glad to know the chain clears it. I know one Commando rider that love to be seen on that offensive thing of yours. Peel will have a sissy bar too but also a flag pole on top of that, so there.
 
Well now boy, that flag best be the good ol`stars & bars, or I`ll be a'reachin`fur ma shotgun..we don`take none too kindly to long haired unwashed hippy-trippy limey chopper riding freakers down this ol`holler, least not since we done saw Easy Rider, high as them Armstrong boys...yeehaaaah!...`lessin youall gotsa purty mouth now..
 
Dude the 70's hippies and wild bunch are now the one's riding the choppers and packing heat, duh. I was thinking more like this
Commando Choppers please

I have not heard it described as offensive, til now. Seems I have done good.
 
Yeah, that`d be right,- bloody criminal Charlie Manson/murderin` types masqueradin`as filthy peace/dope lovin`hippies `til they get you relaxed..then chopperise ya..
 
COMMANDO and CHOPPER go together like chalk and cheese, Kippers and custard, oil and water, but some poor misguided fools seem to like them for whatever reason to which I cannot fathom.
Each to their own I suppose!
 
Alrighty SK, just add some exhaust pipes that stick up as proud as your tail and there'd be a circle of fainted Nortoneers around it as if emitting a poisonous gas. Choppers were made to hang a gremlin bell on so leave me a snail mail and I'll send a nice little ding a ling a linger. The one Peel was sent was in a special box contructed the size of the bell so label needed a magnifying glass to read. Some these chopper guys can stop flaunting their delicate offensive art taste.

I am in the process of redoing it, so it will get new pipes. Though I don't think they will be sky highs. Maybe some megaphones, ya know, freak out the squares!
 
I found mine on craigslist, got it for 1100.00.
Though I'll probably spend a grand on it this winter.
