    Funny,..I think Sr and Jr build shiny showpieces for corporations looking for a prop, if you want a real motorcycle you would have to go to Jesse James,...And this is coming from a guy who rides a LOT. Try and ride one of those OCC choppers 600-700-800+ miles a day, not going to happen.

    I know of several companies that have had bikes built by OCC that didn't have the internal parts of the engine installed, so that they would never even run, just left in neutral and pushed around between polishings and shows.

    People may not like his attitude but he is the only real builder of the three...and if Sr or Jr COULD have knocked him out they might have. I think they know better, JJ would put a whipping on that loud mouth wanna be ape.

      I agree, I liked JJ's bike but his attitude stinks and the whole time watching the show I kept telling my son the same thing, Sr. did not build a bike and it was a " Bike Build Off " and that was no bike. It was a cool build though.

        i cant stand jj's attitude, hes like a grown version of the playground bully but as much as i don't like the person he is i do think he has some awesome skills and talent when it comes to building things. He gets points for fabbing up his stuff himself and not buying it pre-made but jr's bike looked better. jj is burnt out imo

          Kinda what I was thinking. Just the way the host dude kept prodding for drama. But Jesse is a tool for sure.

            I thougt it was strange when JJ asked his daughter to count in German on one of the episodes. I just kept thinking of the pictures of him in SS garb.

              Jesse James didn't surprise me at all. Being a loser for so many years has a tendency to make a guy bitter.

              I do agree with him on Sr. though. All I ever see him do on a show is gripe while his guys work. He may have been building bikes in his basement 40 years ago, but I don't think he's built one in the past 10. If he lost Jason Pool and Rick Petco, he'd be back to owning a metal shop.

                  I think Jesse does that stuff because the camera is rolling. Just like Senior. But seriously, what good is building a bike if you can't ride. Junior's bike holds one gallon of gas. That's not a bike. Jesse is clearly a significantly better builder than Junior will ever think to be. This is TV crap and nothing that happened on there should be taken too seriously.

                    All I know is that I could go to 4 shops within an hour of Austin and find a bike like Jesse built. There was nothing nice about it. so what he made his frame. It was a copy of a frame he could have bought. You know,the ones no one is using anymore because they are dated and ugly. he is also very rude. How do you talk that much trash about a person when behind him is sitting a motorcyle that the other person built. Weather he likes Jrs style or not, he still built a darn nice bike.

                    if the rules would have said, you have to ride it 600 miles, Jr would have built a bike with a bigger gas tank to do such a thing. But this was not a rule, so it is a non factor...

                    Sr---- I watched the episode when they decided on this thing, you could hear Rick in the back ground ask , "is this even a chopper". I could see him being imbarrased by what they built. I totally think OCC just shot themselves in the foot when it comes to Choppers. They had a chance to build something nice, then they turn out that track thingy that looked more like one of them Cam Am bikes than a chopper...

                    Jr showed alot of class not bashing and talking about his team....

                      OCC completely coped out from the beginning saying "it's a popularity contest". They took the low road and essentially eliminated themselves from the competition by building that. Jr has to have a theme to work with I felt his bike was a great theme biker for what that's worth. JJ is completely full of himself and his ego wanting to fabricate everything himself really left his bike very plain which is fine, but he has done so much better in the past. I don't like him at all, but JJ is the best bike builder out of the three, but he didn't show it on this competition.

                          If occ wants to keep building bikes they better get rid of that Jason pool kid. He has no vision just a computer and knows nothing about bikes what a joke. Rick needs to go to Pj's and build real bikes again.

                            I think the only reason jj lost is not because of the bike but his unpopularity from what he done to Sandra bullock.

                              The only thing that jj fabricated that jr didn't was the frame and the bike jj made I wouldn't drive if it was given to me I would sell it for one you could ride safely

                                If it was not for Jesse James bringing choppers back to the mainstream those upstate new york boys wouldnt even have a show. They would still be building fences. Im not saying that they are not talented artists but Jesse brought the culture back to life around 2000 and then the flood of bike builders begun. I agree the show pretty much stunk it up. But allways good to see some creativity..
