Just had a bike built for me by Thundercity in Leeds
link here: http://www.thundercity.co.uk/projects_list.asp?typ...

Anyone else had a bike built, built it themselves, or ride a chopper?

Lovely looking bit of kit! Jealous now. I've owned loads of bikes over the years, but never a Harley/big twin type chop. My planned trip to Thunder City may be bought forward now...

looks great that.
ive got a slightly custom T140v, pic on profile. i didnt build it but ive half rebuilt it as the 'professional' who built it couldnt use spanners or do wiring correctly.

Thanks, it is the first custom bike I have owned, I have come from sportsbikes (Ducati 748S, CBR 600's etc) so it is quite a change!biggrin

I reached a certain age I think and thought, I've been lucky, maybe it's time to slow the pace down. It is a different style of riding, but no less enjoyable.

The guys at Thundercity, Paul, Andy and Edge are fantastic, it was a real pleasure to deal with them and they did an awesome job with the bike, the attention to detail is first class.
