I'm a North Westerner looking for something localish. I haven't been to anything yet but I found this on YouTube (see link below). I don't and won't use facebook so I don't know if this is an annual event. Southport ride out

Ebay is probably your only hope, I'm not sure asking 4 times will make any difference!

Hi all, I don’t recall but I think I joined a while ago but not sure I ever posted. I have a 1974 Mk2 Ultra Violet Chopper. It isn’t in bad condition but the paint needs renewing so that’s the plan.
I wanted to join to get advice and a few parts and to join the community

Best bet is to remove the front forks. There should be clean unfaded paint on the stem, then get a car paint supplier to mix some up for you...

Hello All, Hope to join the chopper conversations and also learn a little bit more about the bike I have been hiding in my moms shed for 40+ years Hi, welcome to the site. I take it this bike belonged to you as a youngster? Is it a Mk1 or Mk2? What colour? There is a Raleigh Chopper show at Billing Aquadrome next weekend should that interest you.

The bike was mine (handed down from my brother) around 1974, I think is a Mk1 and is orange in colour. I assume it is in original condition as we would not have had the cash to be able to customise it. Seems to have withstood the test of time some rust but the wheels and gears still seem to be functioning ok.
I may go to a chopper show in the future but have to arrange in advance due to family stuff going on.

Hello, I'm new to the site and looking to restore a Chopper that was given to me as a birthday present after a cousin had it prior to that. I think it's a MKI 5 speed with the high sissy bar and two shift levers. It came with the herringbone slick which I'm kicking myself for replacing with another tire when I was a kid. Can't seem to find any, just the knobie's. Does anyone know if they if there is a reproduction company that sells the redline herringbone? My wife want's me to sell the bike as is, but too many good memories being the coolest kid on the block riding around back in the day... The forum won't let me upload a picture due to size limit??? Any thoughts or advice is appreciated.
