WARNING..hijack in progress... ...
If you really want to get definitive...
Whassa' difference 'tween a chopper, a bobber, and a brat?...
-Bobber... minimalist.. less parts, reduced size parts... (nothing is made bigger, no added weight)...
-Chopper... some bobbing done,.. but other parts extended, like forks, bars, and sissy... also more flash and chrome... (can't be a chopper without extended forks)...
- Brat... some bobbing,.. but added glitz,.. but no fork extension... (can't be a brat with extended forks)...
then,..
-Cafe'... bobber minimalism, with full emphasis on speed...(rider must be leaned forward with feet rear of engine)...
-Scrambler... a bobber with added suspension...
-Cruiser... nothing reduced... everything added for rider comfort and extended miles...
-Tourer... comfort, miles, and storage capacity... (car on 2 wheels)...
- Rat.. everything trashed, trash added...
