I'm not talking about the old school bike from the 80s. I'm on about bikes styled on chopper motorbikes.

Does anyone own one? Photos? What are they like to ride? I've seen a few people in Europe riding them and they look cool.

These just look great. I know the dynamics are all wrong but it's not about speed or cornering. They look comfortable to do some miles on?

Nice bike. I've been looking at the electras myself. I'm thinking straight 8 or fast 5.

Its great to ride until you get to a hill then youre knackered as your feet are too far forward and if you stand your hands are too far back!
For bumbling along its ace really relaxed.
I get it that lots of people don't like them, but nothing in my house is beige so they probably wouldn't like that either lol
A guy i know got a nerve new for for a couple of hundred quid which is a steal on the iweb. From memory mine was about £400ish
