One of the 18 Frames built by your brother
by: Allen Mathwig

I recently purchased a Bobber frame on EBay to build a custom bike, after try to figure out where it was manufactured and its orgination I believe I have one of the 18 frames your brother built. The seller was from California said he purchased it for his project but never used it. I ran across the photo of your bobber project of the CB750 DOHC Black Beauty Chopper and the frame matchs it to a tee. The design and welds match and its a silver nickle finish with a dark red for the fender and front fork tree. I'm using your photo as example in desinging my bike. It would be nice to be able to contact you in resolving issues as they arrive since you have already delt with them. Keep up the good work.

Brings back memories
by: Capt Blood

In 1970 my older brother built the first production after-market CB750 rigid frame choppers in Los Angeles. A total of 18 were built. He designed the frames and tooling with a little help from his best friend at Track Master Racing Frames. All of the frames were TIG welded and double-nickel plated (too beautiful to bondo the welds and paint them). Really top of the line.

This project CB750 is beautiful and reminds me of those first CB750 choppers. Excellent job!!!

My brother passed away on Thanksgiving and I just purchased the Bobber rigid plans to use as reference to build a Harley Street 750 chopper in tribute to him. I will post pictures when done. It is called the Stone Free II project as his helmet at the time was titled with Stone Free on it.

Thanks for sharing this picture of a more recent build. The CB750 engine is a great engine for a chopper.

Your frame?
by: Jeff S

Keith, hello there. I am getting a 1982 Honda cb750c dohc and am wanting to bob it. I love the over all look and lines of your bobber. I am new to it all, and was wondering if you made your frame from scratch or bought a hardtail kit or what. I hope to have a musical theme to mine using a mini amplifier for a battery box and old mics for a tail light possibly. Any way if you could respond I'd appreciate it. Love your bike. Jeff
