So should I just go ahead and replace all the wiring on the chopper? By the way I will be asking alot of questions cause I have never had a motorcycle and this is my first experience with one due to me being only 4ft 6in and I have finally found something that actually fits. Yes you read right. lol

Question I bought mine off a private owner. I got a bill of sale but been reading online I need an mco to get it titled. The chopper has never been titled and he did not have the mco. How hard will this be to get registred? I live in Indiana.

Has anyone switched out the handlebars for riser bars with handlebars? The stock ones are welded and want to be able to switch handlebars out with using risers.

Just picked up one of these neat little bikes a week or so ago. Interesting that the first thing I noticed was some electrical tape on the wiring harness. Considering the discussion here and on investigation just re-wired the whole bike. I've built quite a few Harleys over the years, this thing is more fun than I've had on a bike since I was a kid. Cheap and a bit of a basket case but I'd intended to replace the cosmetics from the start.
A couple of questions: I read a few mentions of jack shaft mods, anybody work up something to fix that weak point w/o fabricating a new one? Has anyone done any frame mods? The front of the frame just looks "unfinished" and I'm thinking I'll rework that over the winter as well as touching up any spotty welds, Some great posts here! I'll share here once I get rolling on it! |

Scorpion Chopper
I have a scorpion chopper as well and it will not spark!
Does anyone know where I can get a wiring diagram? |

Thanks for checking in.
I haven't seen any choppers since you posted yours, but I'm interested to follow your progress.
