                hi huggie, its ian. the bike in question was a chopper 2, with wide handlebars, not a budgie. Though I did have the budgie beforehand ij

                            Hi

                            Had a raleigh Snipe !

                            my elder Brother had a chopper and I was (still am) Jealous!

                            mates of mine had a Budgie - and that was the first bike i rode without stabilisers ! ( I remember so clearly coz I was 37 at the time Lol)

                              The first proper bike i remember having was a Red Raleigh Boxer which was the Grifter for younger kids




                              After that i had a Purple Budgie which was the chopper for younger kids but i never really liked it much


                              Next came a white BMX which was my Fave of all


                              and last but not least was my raleigh Bomber

                                Surely you mean The Boxer was a junior Grifter and The Budgie was a junior Chopper??
                                I always though the Tomahawk was the junior Chopper (hence the name)
