Choppers
After seeing so many choppers built on TV, I was wondering: What's the purpose of a sissy bar, and why is it called a sissy bar?

'Scuse me for living under my little rock of music and ... whatever else I do, but... The fuck is a chopper? Is it a motorcycle, or a helicopter? I've seen the 'Orange County Choppers' logo on bloody well everything... What is it?

Chopper in this case, is most likely referring to motorcycles because a sissy bar is a U-shaped bar meant to be primarily cosmetic but can be used as support for either the ride or passenger. Riders shouldn't need a backrest. Thus the name sissy bar. it's a metal bar for sissies. not prevalent on sport or dirt bikes. seen on older cruisers and ... well... "choppers".
No sig here folks. |

You've never seen American Chopper? Then this is perfect timing. A.C. Week starts tomorrow night on The Discovery Channel. Also, check out Orange County Choppers. I also just noticed in my DTV guide that the "Jet Bike" episode is on @ 2pm CST today. Last edited by JRSellers; 14th August 2004 at 18:10. |

I often see Orange County being mentioned, often without which state it's in. I know there are orange counties in many states... is it a special county, is there one in every state? I'd appreciate an answer, thanks. |

I love that show. It's fun watching paul sr. get all pissed off and then yell at paul jr. Very entertaining
