Hey guys just wondering if anybody has ever wanted a west coast chopper? I know i have a harley softail but my ultimate goal is to buy a CFL Chopper. Anybody else here thought of buying one or own one? Don't get me wrong i really like my hog but theres something about the frisco look the cfl has that i really like. Whats peoples opinions of this subject?

Choppers are nice, that's why I bought my Rocker C, but CFL is not my cup of tea, but I don't see anything wrong with you liking other bikes also, to each his own.

I remember when he was on Discovery channel he made a longer than normal one for a basketball player (Shaq?).
Was funny watching him (and he's a reasonably big guy) try to put his feet on pegs that were about 6" out of his reach.

Yeah if i were to buy one id build one instead of buying one from his shop. People say on wcc messageboard that if you want the shop to build a chopper its going to run around 60 to 80 thousand. If you do your own build you will pay around 15 to 30 depending on what you want on it. I dont know about you guys but i cant see paying the 60 to 80 grand on a bike of any kind its ridiculous. Why so high? I cant get past the price on a shop built bike..lol. Maybe people think its worth it to spend that much for a bike but i dont. Id rather build my own for alot cheaper. Anybody here think its way too much to charge for those kind of bikes? Or am i the only one?
