    Un known Chopper. Who made it ?

    You are exactly right. Discovered today, under motor mount plate, "CMB" logo and serial number. Discovered while removing the motor to replace a seal. Damn thing sits so low to the ground, never noticed until now.

    Yours looks in many ways looks like the same builder. Disc brake set up, front wheel, rear wheel, pipe, foot pegs. Super nice by the way.
