Default thinking about going in a new motorcycling direction

It seems that going fast and taking corners at super fast speeds, while fun, is something I'm kinda finding isnt what I want to do as a rider long term. granted I enjoy twisties, I want something different, and more day to day oriented than racebike derived. I suppose you could say I'm just becoming a more or less mature rider, and wanting something I can enjoy seeing the sights on. call me nuts, but I want to go slower and enjoy life.


Taking a new 1200 sportster, and making a chopper. I was at the harley dealer looking at em today, and they just had two older ones with this certain look that jsut begged to be raked out a few degrees or so.

Now the idea is really churning in my head, and I want to try and come up with some ideas on how to make a chopper thta looks cool, but is also practical as an everyday bike.

Right now I'm envisioning something like the captain america chopper from the easy rider movie, but with a less extreme front end.

what say y'all?
