Default choppers ?
I would like to know if anyone else here owns a chopper. I have a Fatboy but most of the time I ride a 2009 Apollo chopper. I just really enjoy it. Lets see some pictures.

I have a friend a few houses down that had a beautiful hart tail chopper by ???? - pretty damn thing - he rode 1 hour - wrench 2 hours on it - he finally gave up & sold it - Now looking for a something he can ride 2 hours & wrench 10 minutes or less -

If i had the space for another bike in the garage I would buy a Honda Fury chopper - Nice looking bike & all you do is add gas & go - I think that would be a fun bike for around town -

The closest thing I had to a chopper was a Sporty with the Seeger kit and +6" tubes on it. It looked cool. Didn't handle all that well. Ex wife got it. That was about 11 years ago.

My buddy has on 07 Iron horse. Nice looking, but the most miserable riding hunk of crap on the road. He has several other bikes and it's a good thing. His chopper is on the lift way more than it's on the ground. He has 3600 miles on it and it has left him stranded 4 times all ready.
