      As far as I know, the only reason most people visit a bar is to consume alcohol.

          Bar hopper????

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

                  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.

                        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.

                              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.
