Check this chop built by Vishous (from the Horse Board). Nice and clean, digging the color scheme and the pinstriping really sets it off. More Pics and Info after the cut.

A couple of quick links in regards to metalworking you may or may not have seen. Check this stuff out:
Henrob 2000: Tig/Plasma/Torch all in one and at a reasonable price? Apparently this really works too. I plan on getting one myself until I can afford a proper Tig setup.
Easy Aluminum Welding/Brazing / Dura […]

I picked up a bunch of old chopper magazines at the show yesterday. Lots of great old stuff in there, so from time to time I’ll be posting some scans of cool bikes or articles. The following pics are from the 1982 April issue of Custom Bike. I absolutely love the paint on this bike: […]

Just posted an update to the photos section; bunch of pics from the Mass British Iron Association yesterday. Most of the pics are of the choppers and customs that were there, so there is not many different bikes, but a ton of pics of each bike. Here is a direct link to the gallery: Mass […]

This ‘45 turbocharged flathead built by Brew Bikes is one of the nicest flatty’s I’ve seen in a long time. So many cool little details to point out, but at the same time the bike is super clean and smooth. Everything flows together naturally from the front end to the taillight. Check out that Brew […]

Be warned, this is a long video – about 10 minutes, but it’s more than worth the time. I’m not sure where this is originally from – it looks professionally produced. What you get is 10 minutes of guys pulling lines and some great visual insight on some pinstriping techniques. No talking, just guys working […]

This is why I love YouTube – how else would I get to see something like this. This is the New Order Chopper Show in Japan – so many cool fucking bikes – can’t understand a damn thing, but who cares.

I don’t usually post about TV builders and that whole scene, however, this bike is too fucking cool and such a departure from the normal TV stuff I feel compelled. Check out the Vincent chopper Matt Hotch built – too fucking sweet. Perimeter breaks, 26” front, 20” rear. How cool is it that he chopped […]

New board member Bobbydeville posted about his home built ‘67 BSA Lightning late last week. After taking a look at the pics and feature story posted about his bike on chopperweb, there was no doubt in my mind that it needed to be featured on Knucklebuster. Bobby’s got a great looking, clean, smooth and simple […]

Just added a new gallery to the photos section full of pics from the Choppahead 5th Anniversary bash. Thanks to Big Nick for the pics – I’m bummed I missed it, looks like a great time. As a side note, one bike from the bunch really blew me away. I’m not sure who Seth is, […]

I’m a little brain dead today after a whirlwind weekend of traveling, so you’ll have to excuse me if I’m a little incoherent. So while I was out of town this weekend, Paul emailed me with pics of his ‘46 Flathead. I had seen the bike before over on the Choppahead board and was digging […]
