Default Nirve Chopper

I saw the post for info on a west coast chopper and was wondering if anyone has done Nirve with the Happy time kit as well?

Yes it's the Nirve Switchblade. This is a customers bike and we had decided to make a small round tank which would mount behind the seat. Thanks for the idea I'll bring that to him. If anybody else has seen pics of motor mounting I'd love to see them. As I stage through this project, I'll post pics.

Thanks Venice Boy! I love the offset you built. Are you using the original 3" tire and if so how are you bringing out the sprocket to align with the drive sprocket and also clear the tire so its not rubbing? I noticed that your rear sprocket is on and some closeup pictures would be awesome.

Thanks,
Scott
