Cool! It's a valid formula: Strip off all unnecessary items, then focus on performance and safety. Sort of the bad-ass rigid chopper of pro-touring.

Yep.. i explain it as "short on cush and long on crush".. lol.. or pro-street that doesn't suck to drive. That blue Nova in the new issue is a perfect example (the bolide car).. I sorta wish I would have wrote that so I could have pushed the term.

I agree, I like it, it's a cool term, but I don't know that I'd compare it to a chopper. Some sort of stripped down GSXR1000 would make for a better analogy. :D

That's where I stole'd it from. But then again, "chopping" certainly pre-dates crotch rockets.
