That's right folks, a GZ250 Chopper

...looks the same as any other 2002 GZ250 you say? Nah. It has the word chopper in the sale description! It's a chopper! :poke2:

If the owner of this bike is a member here, I mean no disrespect. it's a good marketing plan to throw the word chopper in there. Buyers will either get a chuckle (like me :lol: ), or they won't know any better and take you seriously. Good luck to you. Hope it sells!

Re: That's right folks, a GZ250 Chopper

Yup, that's the ever popular GZ factory chopper. Might be a nice bike for a lot less money. 10 year old tires, tubes, fluids etc. If it sat for 8 of the last 10 years I would probably question the wheel bearing. Total cost of putting the bike on the road safely could be a deal breaker even if the price was lower.

Re: That's right folks, a GZ250 Chopper

Here, where i live, all the bikes that are bobbered or cruiser look a like, are called choppers. Term cruiser is not that popular. I remembered Bruce Willis' quote from Pulp Fiction,
when his girl asked him:,, Whose motorcycle is this?''
Bruce Will''is:'' it's a chopper baby...''
,,Whose chopper is this?
,,Zed's.''
,,Who's Zed?''
,,Zed's dead, baby! Zed's dead!''
Vroooommm!!!

Re: That's right folks, a GZ250 Chopper

Hey pimp, Do you have sky tv in your country? Watch "American Chopper" about a workshop in Orange County, that makes choppers. Then you'll see the difference between choppers and cruisers. :rawk:

Re: That's right folks, a GZ250 Chopper

Yeah Alan! I have internet provider who is providing me with a more than 200+ channels from around the globe. I watched American Chopper on discovery... Know the difference, but you must excuse me since when talking about motors with my friends, or better to say since we first time saw any harley or yamaha virago, we called them choppers, and they stayed that way. The terms like cruisers, bobbers came in my vocabulary 2 years ago

I've got cousins from Connecticut, they just call all motorcycles Bikes. So I asked them what they called bicycles, they looked at me like I was an idiot and said "bicycles".
