Question:
Well, I am 19, I have had my drivers license for a few years, and just got my motorcycle license. Anyway, I was wondering what bike i should buy. I am thinking about buying an OCC production bike, because we have a local dealership that sells them. However, If I do that, I am going to wait until the OCC Black Widow production bike is released (a cheaper production module of OCC's most talked about custom bike ever)

get a cheap bike ,say about $1000, and put a few 1000 miles on the think and learn how to RIDE!!just becAuse you now have a licence ,does not mean you have SKILL!
do you know how to do a panic stop at 75 mph and not crash? do you know what to do if you find yourself going through oil?gravel? sand?
if you get an OCC bike you are buying a bike that handles like a city bus...that means when some blind guy pulls into your lane, you better know how to react!!

Before I bought a custom bike I would get allot of experience first. Thankfully I did not have the ability to buy a custom bike when I was 19. Try buying a good HD and gather experience before jumping to a custom.Something is wrong with my friends Bike?
I know that you are going to ignore me but gather some riding experience first. My colleague is an avid and experienced rider, he logs about 50 to 60 thousand miles a year. He bought a custom bike and ended up selling it. I custom is allot of bike.

The Harley looks like too much of a generic Circus Wagon to you so you want to get one that looks even MORE like a Circus Wagon? You're young, get some experience on some cheap old cycle for awhile, try out some different styles and see what you really like to RIDE before getting into all this bling-bling "look at me!!" crap. That OCC production bike can't be cheap!
Evo Intake Manifold seals. Frequently reoccurring air leaks?
Do you mean generic, or geriatric? Either way, at 19, you probably haven't been to any Rallies or other big gatherings. If you had, you would see that most Harleys have been changed slightly (or a lot) to suit the owner's taste.A chopper for somebody who just got their license? Not a good idea. They are not like any other road bike. Difficult to handle, 'cause they don't turn worth a buffalo chip. You should follow some of the other suggestions here, get yourself some seat time on a few different kinds of smaller bikes. Then, when you have some more experience (information gathered with your butt), you will have a better idea of what you want in a custom.

I need a price on a new aprilia 125?
u better take a short spin around the parking lot on a chopper before u think about takin it to the street first. and what firecracker said about their handling is true. they're not a very forgiving bike with the long raked out front end. seems to me, all the ricer's are a generic copy of hd's. they's all have 2 wheels.but u need the skills to stay alive in asphalt jungle.Am I too big to buy a H-D sportster?
It sounds like you've already answered your own question. It also doesn't sound like you have very much riding experience and probably none on a chopper, so I guess you're basing your decision on the bling factor. The OCC choppers may appeal to your visual senses, but that doesn't count for much when you're trying to maneuver one down the road. As mentioned by others, chopper handling is not the same as other style of bikes due to the raked out front end. I would get some ride time on something else first and then look into the choppers and definitely try riding one before you buy. Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti chopper. In fact I like the chopper look. But you really need to take a Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) course and get some riding experience on something other than a chopper. Then if you really want the OCC chopper look into it with experience as your guide. Welcome to motorcycling regardless of what you ride.NE1 need a new Icon helmet SZ Sm?

You will find them hard to ride at first, due to the forward controls, but after a month or so it will become easy. they are not fun to ride more than 25 miles, it's just not a great ride, more of a painful one.California motorcycle license?
Iron Horse makes a production bike, which is well thought of and you can custom make it to your pocket book and engine taste.
These bikes will fade out in the next 2-5 years due to the over population of them, if you don't care about getting your money back then go ahead and buy one.
I have heard bad reviews on O.C.C. bikes, from previous owners. But you will have to make your own decision on that purchace.
Have you done any stupid things with a motorcycle?
You don't mention if you have ever ridden, but I would get a used bike, I wouldn't get a new bike for now, and most of all, ENJOY YOUR RIDES...GOOD LUCK!Best airbrush for painting motorcycle tanks?
Well it sounds like you have an itch for that chopper custom bike and if so you may want to take a good look at the Big Dog Motorcycles. To me the Custom chopper is in the same class as a crotch rockets, not comfortable for a long ride and that is why I own and ride a cruiser, but that's just me and my opinion.(77)

How do you get mold out of a motorcycle helmet?
make ur first bike a used one that pretty much is designed for the type of riding you will most likely do.. Being as your pretty much a novice, buy used. You are going to drop it and make other "dumb" mistakes. ride it for a time and then when you have it figured out and have decided you are not going to do stupid things like dropping it, then, go buy a new bike. I still ride my old "drop bike" but just bought my first really nice one. want mine?Boreing 01 400ex to a 420 what can i expect?

How long do I have to cancel a contract for a motorcycle I just bought?
Your young and have a thirsty mind. Hope this quinces your thirst a little. Stay away from the Harleys. Harleys are a grease dripping, oil slinging, vibrating, undependable, overpriced, clinking, clanking collection of coligneous junk !! Hondas and Kawasakis are much more dependable and affordable !Honda CB550 Air Filter Element question?
If you convert the Ural sidecar models to LPG fueled vehicle(when petrol becomes too expensive or is not available because
Red China has purchased most of it), your fuel can still be extracted from Natural Gas, with ample stocks in Canada and USA. It burns cleaner than petrol to slow global warming, has
thousands of fuel outlets in North America, and is priced about the same as petrol presently. Sidecar also can help your nubile passenger moon all other bikers found clueless and afoot.

The motorcycle you should buy at your age is the one you can afford the insurance on.If it's 64 degrees outside and you're traveling 70 mph on a motorcycle, how cold is it really?
Seriously - go to your insurance agent and ask for a rate quote on a couple of different bikes you really want.
When you finish picking up your stones after the "shock and awe" on how much you'll be paying for insurance that you'll be presented, you'll buy a bike that you can afford the INSURANCE on - not the bike payment.
I wish you well in your search, and hope I'm wrong - but I don't think I am.
