The bike in the OP is a bog standard production bike in cruiser style, nothing chopped about it. I believe it was the name given to the bike for the kids, us Brits remember it well..😋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopper, big bike, luxury, etc. Perhaps it will help to realize that the original articles are often written by Thais and reflect the Thai viewpoint and terminology. Thais will call a Honda Rebel 300 a chopper, no matter your foreign pedantry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiebrian Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 This is Thailand. What is normally called a motorcycle in most countries could be a chopper or even a big bike here. What is normally a motor-scooter is a motorcycle here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
