Attention, Street Chopper Readers
Here's your chance to blow away your friends by getting your bike shown in full color on the pages of your favorite chopper mag. All you have to do is send us your Pictures!
All we ask is that you follow some simple guidelines so you get the best shot of your chopper. Take a shot of your bike from the left and right sides (we need shots of both sides) with a nice, clean background and the sun at your back. Please send color prints or slides, no Polaroids or digital image printouts. Remember, the better the picture looks, the more likely it is to be published. So if you think your bike looks better than the picture, shoot again. We want to see what you ride, so send in some pics, along with the information listed below, to: STREET CHOPPER, Your Bike Here, 2570 E. Cerritos Ave., Anaheim, CA 92806.
A Sporty Motor Gets A Second Chance
Chris picked up the Ironhead motor and some other basket-case parts for his chopper from a friend who had been storing them in his garage for the past 22 years. Wanting to build a bare-bones chopper reminiscent of the bikes from the '60s, Chris painted his ride black with the silver lettering "Old School Ironhead."

Plenty Of Attention
Charlie Capora of Bensalem, Pennsylvania, was stoked that his '02 Serviolo's Cycle Fabrication custom turned out to be such an attention-getter. He probably could have done without the cops pulling him over to get a closer look, but at least they let him off easy.
