Then i try to surf again about the history, find in wiki and other recources and i know now.

The Chopper motorcycles or Chopper bikes started when soldier return from world war II, not satisfied with his bikes, he started chop up their motorcycle with their own skill get from trained their get on work on automobiles and motorcycles on the war.
First they was called "bobber" because just removing or shortening the fender of the bikes , create lighter,sleeker and faster or at least look better and minimalist.

In the 60s, motorcyclists found that a longer front end allowed the bike to run smoother at faster speeds.
The bikes kept evolving through the 60's and in the 70's and they started to call them "Choppers".
The movie "Easy Rider" was brought the Chopper into the public eye.

The bobber unmodified frames while chopper frames are often cut and welded into shape with chromed parts and elongated forks.
Some removed the battery and used a magneto to reduce weight. The gas tank, headlight, and blinkers were all made smaller.
Anything deemed to be unnecessary was removed to make a bike that was unique and tailored to each rider.

So, simple say the chopper bikes or chopper motorcycles is ...
we took a stock motorcycle , Harley Davidson was most popular even we can use Japan motorcycles or others.
"Chop" all unnessary parts like Windshields, fenders, headlights, crash bars and seats and rake the front end.
Then it become a Chopper bikes.

That means no manufacture can produce a Chopper.
They just can offer the customized bikes or the choppers based on some of the most popular designs.
Since people wanted a Chopper and nobody was building them so they had to go build them themselves.
Arien Ness is a legend talented designer on this bussines.

There is Mini choppers too.
The Mini choppers are scaled-down versions of choppers and are generally constructed from 1" steel tubing or 3/4" steel black pipe.
The tube or pipe is bent and then welded together to get the desired angles and shapes of the frame, which is usually custom made.
Most typical engine would be a Briggs & Stratton or Tecumseh horizontal shaft industrial engine with a non-tapered shaft,ATV and dirt bike engines, or small sport motorcycles engine.
The Mini choppers often use bicycle or moped rims and tires on front and large pneumatic tires in the rear.

That's what i get ....
