Someone coined the term "Bopper" for a bike that has been bobbed to some extent, but then accessorised and customised like the Green bike in this thread.

Original bobbers were/are very much stripped down bikes with only the bare essentials, and typically use battery eliminators to delete additional weight. Boppers have added stuff like fishtail pipes, custom battery boxes and several pounds of chrome and leather.

I like the bobber look, all business and they run like they mean it.

It may be that "Bobbers are the new Cafe bikes" (you can quote me).
