Orange County Choppers MotoCoaster
The Orange County Choppers MotoCoaster is a Zamperla Motocoaster installed at Darien Lake theme park in Darien Lake, NY. The MotoCoaster is Darien Lake's first launched coaster, and is Zamperla's first motorbike roller coaster to be installed in the United States, though a different model with horse theming was installed at Knott's Berry Farm at the same time. The roller coaster was announced in January 2008 and opened in May 2008.
The coaster is the same model that was prototyped outside Zamperla's factory in Italy.
The MotoCoaster is located near the Darien Square area of the park, between Boomerang and Twister. Orange County Choppers built a custom motorcycle inspired by the ride and the park.

Famous quotes containing the words orange, county and/or choppers:
“He hangs in shades the orange bright,
Like golden lamps in a green night,
And does in the pomegranates close
Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
And throws the melons at our feet;
But apples plants of such a price
No tree could ever bear them twice.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“It would astonish if not amuse, the older citizens of your County who twelve years ago knew me a stranger, friendless, uneducated, penniless boy, working on a flat boat—at ten dollars per month to learn that I have been put down here as the candidate of pride, wealth, and aristocratic family distinction.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“I will have never a noble,
No lineage counted great;
Fishers and choppers and ploughmen
Shall constitute a state.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
