Mundy Builds A Chopper

Hi moto heads :)

I know it's been sometime since my last post but I've been very busy with working on the bike. We have made huge progress with the frame and I'm thinking it will be a roller by the end of THIS week. I've been posting on my instagram of the recent photos of my time tack welding. Tack welding has grown into the actual welding. It's so tricky. Though I can't say some of the welds are too pretty but they are structural and they are MINE.

THEY ARE MY WELDS. How cool is that? Of course the BEST weld I did lies underneath the seat post. 👀

This was a tack weld I did on the lower extended part of the frame. Tack welds are my favorite and I was taught that both sides need to have equal penetration for strength.

Now I would really like to make it clear that I wouldn't have been able to do any of this without the help of Cal, Ben, Greg or Joe. I've been absorbing as much information as I can. Without them I wouldn't be able to do this build whatsoever. It's been long nights in the garage, and I have my eye on the chopper prize.

The frame will definitely be a head scratcher to people. I mean, how many Hondas do you see chopped to this extent? There's almost nothing left of the original frame.


This was probably the most difficult section to modify. For whatever reason the stock Honda frame rails are two different heights. Cal and Ben figured out how to extend the front down tubes so the lower frame rails are even and the rear frame rails to rear axle are all on the same plane and angle. This was also tricky because we needed to make new motor mounts and foot peg mounts on that side.

Before with everything tacked in place.

After. All welded up and smoothed out.

Like it never happened!

Also got some some help from Phil @instajam11 He bent up a section that we needed for chain clearance. It worked perfectly. Thanks Phil!!
