  I stuck three photos of Bullet "choppers' or customs in the general photos section. I've searched the internet for a few years off and on looking for information and photos of the Royal Enfield Bullets. These are a few photos I've found and I thought the bikes were well done. Not that I'm going to make my Classic into a "bobber" or something-I'm not.But these show a bit of what others have done.
    By the way, often as not for the last few years I've had some photo of a Bullet as my computer desktop.

Love that 'Bullet Hopper' but don't like that extended gearchange strip. Yuk. Spoils a really good looking machine IMHO. Nice 'swoopy' lines (and a suitable amount of oil spots on the floor too ha ha)

I use this for my desktop @ the moment!

The Black one is very cool!  Not sure what I'll end up as a final product (Work in Progress), but I am in the Process of chopping mine up.

LSM: I enjoy "nose art"  or "eye Candy" as some say. Do you know the origin of this ad?

I robbed the pic of the advert from eBay. I got some others too as well as one from some book  I have 'cos I too like these sort of things. Great as metal signs eh?
You'll probably like these as well then!!

Cool photos, except for the one with both of them on the RE. 

High pipe and bare leg sure doesn't make sense!   :o
