This is kinda pathetic. I'm joining the Chopper Forum just when I've listed my chopper on eBay to sell!

I'm trying to make sure I got all the particulars right. I think it is from 1969 and is a "tall frame" bike. Someone tells me it should not have the particular shifter it has if that is true, but others disagree. It has a rear coaster brake instead of a rear hand brake and someone thought that was important. It's all a bit confusing to a noob like me!

Me riding it circa 1970?

Here are detailed pictures of the bike: flic.kr/s/aHskHWhgyN for your analysis.

If anybody is interested, here is my eBay listing.

I'm hoping it finds a good home!
