Annual SATURDAY Efforts

Gangster Choppers

Each year trickles along and its business as usually. Springtime kicks off tremendous volumes of service work that it takes throughout the Summer to catch up on. The Fall comes in suddenly with clients wanting to enjoy those last rides of the year, then they slide their scooters away for warmer weather.

Gangster Choppers is an amazing company that doesn't get a break! The winter is already fully scheduled with "full tilt builds" and heavy customizing action. That's when the necks are raked, Complete bikes torn down for powder coating treatment. Motor rebuilds get pushed of the work benches and onto the assembly table.

There is a magical time though when it is "just right" to catch up on building maintenance. It could be prompted by weather, usually the same  "perfect" temperatures would lend themselves to riding! We were blessed in Richmond, Virginia with two back to back Saturdays just perfect for improvements and cleaning around 216 - the short nick name for The Gangster Choppers Global Headquarters located at 216 Belt Blvd, Richmond, Virginia 23224.

Here is Part 1 of the first Saturday. Again, perfect temps and plenty of help showed up, we cleaned up!
