Choppers (those caricatures of motorcycles with their exaggeratedly long front forks) were born in the US during the Sixties and quickly inspired the Japanese factories to produce Americanized "[[cruiser]]" models. The fashion took longer to catch on in Europe, but during the late 1990s custom bikes, represented more than 13 percent of the European market, with the '''[[Yamaha]] XV535''' dominating the scene.
