Hello from just north of the Canada/USA border in St. Catharines Ontario, Canada.
I'm a compulsive tinkerer from way back, a little over 40 years or so. I used to occupy myself with much larger engines ie 4cyl and up hot rods and motorcycles and started building/rebuilding at about 13. Since retiring, for the most part, and moving/losing my workshop, I now focus on these smaller engines which to my enjoyment are no less fun I found!
I've built a few 2 stroke and 4 stroke bikes for friends and myself and then built a 3000 Watt Wheel Hub electric but given Canada has not come even close to installing decent charging infrastructure that e-bike just kinda sits collecting dust after I lost interest in the about 5% of the project needed to complete the build lol.
Going to be starting a new Bobber 4 Stroke gas build for myself here shortly and will be sure to post pics/details along the way. Will be based on a Nirve Chopper, Galaxie, or Fastback style frame (haven't finalized my decision yet) in as close of a quality knock-off as I can find as IMHO despite being nice bikes, the Nirve line is seriously overpriced, especially here in Canada!
Cheers
