OK lads, I guess I am the newest of the newest here on this site. Have been repairing and riding motorcycles for 40 plus yrs but never had a home made motorbike. Here in upstste NY the winters are loooong and I am thinking of a project bike with a chainsaw engine, either a stihl or an old ( C52 Monster ) homelite unit. So far I have seen so many great ideas here that I am really enthused about it and with all the suppliers of parts it may become a reality by spring. Great site.
