California bobber/chopper. Hardtailed, stretched and a mild chop. Common starting point would be a BSA, Triumph, Norton as well as the early Jap twins.

The bottom pictures looks like a "kickker" style bike with a small jap 4-stroke motor in it...usually using the kawasaki 110cc 3 speed semi auto clutch engine.

I believe that is the "Badass" style. but yea, bobber, bobtail etc. I buddy did one on an ol' honda bike. My next bike.
 
Search Bratstyle. Its a Jap style but they do it on all bikes even dirtbikes. Its by far one of the best looking styles to me anyway.

Oh and your second pic looks like a Kikker as said above. They are 1/2 to 3/4 size bikes. More for fun then serious riding. Good for towns and what not, def not a highway bike.
 
yes, here in Colorado it'd be a bitch to register them to make them so you could legally ride on the street.

Plus they are small, you'd looking like a monkey fawking a football on one.
 
bobbers are the shiite"thumbsup"..chopped rear fender, no front fender, no front brake, gotta be fat spoked rims, open primary, hardtail frame..ouch..love em"thumbsup"
cool flatty in the pic"thumbsup"

This monkey and football you speak of, does that do anything for you?
 
bobbers are sweet. but IMO the sound is almost just as important as the look. definitely not gonna get that same sound out of 200cc

heres a pic of the size. i dont think they are too small for a bobber

I've built 2 Kikkers BD. Very fun bike"thumbsup" You can get them wholesale for about $750. Build them how you want and dropped shipped to you to build. You choose the bars, seat, wheels, shifter, air filter cover, tires, color, ect.... They are a little smaller but you can rake them out. In most states you can ride them with no tag or insurance if you get the 49cc motor. With the 100cc+ motors they can do 70mph+"thumbsup" They are worth every penny IMO! Really fun and you can make them look bad ass!

Hey Kenny, send me some links
 


Now you're talking...that would be my preffered route, you get a modern engine and fuel injection system with the Buell power plant, support and a readily available parts network. A salvaged Buell can be had fairly reasonably with a title to make registration easier, although I've always had a thing for the british twins and the early twin Hondas.

What are your plans with these? Are you going to ride with a buddy and cover some miles or just hop around town and be a social butterfly? If you think you're going to cover some miles, I'd really steer you away from anything with a hardtail...you can get the same look and style with some of the more custom soft-tail frames, your guts and back will thank you for it.
