theres lots of those sold here in all styles including little choppers etc ,the funny part is,the coppers were caught off guard and couldn't prosecute anyone for riding them on the road because they didn't fit any legal description.That changed rapidly of course as the government sniffed out a further chance of revenue raising.

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.

mecmad in da house: theres lots of those sold here in all styles including little choppers etcI have one of those China-Junk-Choppers sitting in the workshop waiting for some Rat Fink stuff so I can have it in the bed of the Slammer Shop Truck just for the fun of it.... When it was unpacked from a big box, note the chrome plastic Evo V-twin.... After the talest Ape Hangers I could find was fitted..... This is a fun little ride, it's almost done and I have been seen crusing down the streets at 45kph on this toy...... Good luck with your plans for a JPS Norton replica, can be real cool......

I fancy building a chopper style one like that but with a 4 stroke honda 90 motor in so it sounds and to some extent goes the part too! Then make a side car to carry beer of course
