You named your poll "West Coast Choppers" And you posed your poll questions in a general format . I don't give a hoot about Jesse James and the rest of them . However I have always rode choppers for the most part and I live on the West Coast .
And where I come from , we aren't Yuppies or RUBS so we don't need any $40,000 + bikes built for us by some wannabes . We can do it our selves . Thank you very much.....................:laughing:
Regards, Wizzard

You choices are rather limited don't you think? For example I don't particularly care for them, but I wouldn't say "they suck." If someone else likes them that's fine with me.

I think he's the one selling the cardboard standee,.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Actually, "He who dies with the most toys, still dies..."

Jesse and his ilk are no longer "COOL" builders. When they go commercial like he did, it's no longer about the bike, it's about ratings...

Not all choppers are great, I would have liked to see more choices on your poll as well.

I've seen a few really awesome homemade choppers. It's really neat to see things that people can do with an old bike and a few shop tools. But I'm not a big fan of the "factory choppers", where you buy an overpriced pre-built frame and drop an engine in it, then let it sit in the living room and never ride it.

its not so much that i dont like choppers as i think that show and shop make some stupid things. Sure they have insane skill and can build a great bike, but i think its just too flashy and too much drama for a show about bikes.

It totally feels like this guy has posted his "poll" only in an attempt to try and sell that very silly looking item on ebay. I can't proove it though - but it smells like spam to me. :spam:

:humm: You know, you have a good point there. Why would a guy with a name like "ApriliaRACING" be interested in a pic of a chopper builder, anyway?
