There's one serious problem with that Honda "chopper". It's a Honda.

yup, or you can just call it a "thinking man's Harley"

when I bought the bike in 04, I was looking to spend 10K or less. any harley I looked at that was about 10K the stores would ask me if I am prepared to spend another 5 to 8K over the next 5 years...

to buy the style I wanted in a Harley it would have been 32K, I only spend 10including some gear on this one, and it doesn't leave oil spots on my driveway

I agree, my friend bought the similar version that was out a few years back and paid like 8K down in California. Last time I was down there, I rode his bike and man it was nice! But again, just not the kind of style I can pull off...I look ridiculous riding a chopper. But if I grew my bread out some more, wore more leather and got way more tattoos, then just maybe

I have a friend who was born into a Biker family (Hells Angels) and he was saying I am exactly the kind of dude they love to see riding choppers cause its so easy to make fun of...

Well I would have to if I want to ride a chopper wouldn't I??? Isn't that a prerequisite? Well, unless I want to look like some of those dudes you hear coming down the road on a loud chopper and then when you turn to check them out, you kind of think...'what the heck is that guy doing on that bike???'

Yeah that would be me on a chopper. I suit the Ducati much more

Who cares what you look like on a certain bike! If you like it, ride it, damn the torpedoes... and others' opinions. I kind of thought that's what biking is all about?
