Custom choppers are the Mercedes of motorcycles, and they are as much fun to
own as any super-luxury vehicle. I'm certain that when you see a custom
chopper, you wish you had one for yourself. Here's nine reasons to buy a
custom chopper...

1. FUN! Yes, this is the first and foremost reason. You will have more fun
with a custom chopper than just about any other investment you make. Cars
are fun, sure, but they simply don't provide the "in the wind" feeling that
can only be obtained with a motorcycle and a custom chopper will make people
stop and notice â€" and that's always fun.

2. Resale value. Just like a car, motorcycles depreciate with time. At least
stock motorcycles do. But custom rides and antiques don't â€" in fact they can
appreciate if you continue adding value to your ride. 3. Breaking out of the
status quo. Just anyone can own a stock motorcycle. Harley dealers have
great stock bikes that anyone who has the money can buy. Newspapers abound
with ads for stock motorcycles that are being sold by an owner â€" often
because they want to upgrade and get their first custom chopper. That's the
status quo in motorcycles. If you want to break away and stand out in the
crowd, a custom chopper will do that for you!

4. Custom choppers are accepted by all motorcycle riders. Have you ever
noticed that the Harley riders will accept custom choppers that aren't
Harley builds much more easily than they will any other type of motorcycle?
It's true, if your bike is a custom chop, even if the drive train is not
Harley, the Harley rides will not shun you or make nasty.

5. Your custom chopper can reflect your personality. If you purchase a stock
bike, there will be hundreds of thousands of people who have exactly the
same scoot as yours. With a custom chopper, you can provide input and
customization that reflects who you are.

6. Riding comfort is another reason to customize. By choosing the frame,
engine, risers, handle bars, saddle and parts that create your custom
chopper, you can create the chop that is most comfortable for YOU, the
rider.

7. Pizzazz. You can add as much shiny, eye-blinding chrome as you choose; or
you can have as little as you choose. If you want lots of fringe,
accessories the custom chop to include fringe all over. If you want a very
stark, minimalistic ride, you can have that too! How much pizzazz you add is
your choice and only your choice!

8. Head turn factor. You can guarantee, no matter what custom chopper design
you settle on, you will turn heads. You can add all the "head turn" factor
to you chopper you desire. If you want, you can create something that is
drop-dead unique and turn every head you encounter. But if you aren't a
glutton for attention, you may choose a more simplistic design.

9. Make it solo. If you get sick and tired of the "can I ride with you?"
questions and simply don't want anyone to ride behind you, choose a solo
saddle design that provides you an excuse, "my bike only rides one â€" ME!"
