A true chopper is a bike that has had parts chopped off, welded on, cannibalized from other bikes and has more man hours invested than dollars.

I think the sporty build sounds great.

I'm well aware of the difference between old and new school. The new factory customs are a dieing breed. The old school choppers are back in style. More so in the bobber look. You aren't going to educate me on the topic.

Of coarse... that is also what is in style now.
