Bar hopper????
I dunno about "perfect" in regards to bar hoppers, but I'd buy Faye Dunaway her last drink any night…

Now...my rendition of a classic bar hopper...

...and no, while I like it, I wouldn't paint mine like that.

If we are talking about actual bars the perfect bar hopper would be a cell phone. It allows you to summon a cab or Uber.
If we are talking about an around town short trip bike I have recently settled on my Yamaha Majesty scooter. Handy and fun and all that built in storage. It is 400cc so I don't have to avoid Interstate/Expressway segments if they make sense route wise. I didn't buy it for myself originally but now I believe I'll always have a scooter in the fleet. I am sure some folks double take when they see me tooling along next to them on my step through in Hi-Vis ATTGAT.
...Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.
Nature bats last.

It actually runs real good. It's a '64-65? Raleigh Roma. Thankfully it's mostly complete as parts seem to be really rare.
More later this year. .... if things go as planned there will be a project thread this summer. My younger son wants to restore it. I will be keeping the 50 year old patina though. Mainly a mechanical going thru and clean up.sigpic

One can have a bar hopper bike without drinking. It doesn't take much discipline to just drink soda or water.
Anyway, I enjoy my "T" wherever I may roam...when I do roam...lol.
