I'm not looking this up, or researching the answer, and I'm a woman. I'm telling you from experience. If you want a cool looking Chopper out of a Custom Sportster, the best purchases you can make , which will lead to 2 major big differences and steps are......1.Get you a beefy Wide glide set of Front forks and triple trees, which match you model. And 2.Extend the rake a few degrees, not over 6 for safety's sake, unless you have one heck of a Mechanic!

This will not only give you a chopper, but a bad ass beefy HOT looking chopped ride coming down the Street. I also added a 4 gal. 1940's model stretched tank to mine, and people flip when they see it.

2008 Yamaha Star Raider Motorcycle Review

When Yamaha marketed the 2008 Star Raider as a "chopper-inspired," "performance-based custom," I was curious to see how they would pull off this oxymoron. When motorcyclists think of "choppers", "performance" is not the first thing that comes to mind. A bike with a tricked-out rake, raised handlebars and a hunkin' front wheel do. Star borrowed cues from this gene pool of classic styling for the 2008 Raider, but that is where the resemblance to a chopper ends. The Raider is no "Captain America." This thing would blow the socks off Peter Fonda's iconic scoot. Read the full test at www.motorcycle-usa.com
