American Chopper


Anybody watch American Chopper on Discovery Channel? Last night they played the 3 parter about the Fire Chopper. That bike was sick. Looked awesome. The bikes they build are killer.

Yeah. That bike was pretty sick. Did you see the bike that that little kid, Cody, built? That ked's got a future in fabrication.

I always get sucked in to watching that show, but it really pisses me off. It makes me sick to hear the father and son b!tching and complaining all the time.

Cody's bike was pretty cool...and in the middle of the three episodes, his bike got sold. He does have a HUGE future doing that if he wants.

Seems like Paul Sr. is always picking on his son and quite frankly I never really see Sr. doing alot of work.

Pretty sweet Old School chopper Cody and Sr built. Even cooler that Sr gave it to the kid.

I cannot wait to see how this Comanche chopper turns out. Should look totally cool when it is done.

I love that show!

The last one with the dorky son trying to build a bike was hilarious.

I wanted him to actually hit that generic gas tank with double headed axe! Of course then the bike would have never been built.

I like their style of bikes over West Coast Choppers. I wish I had the $$$ to have one built.

I liked that show at first, but now it just pisses me off. If I want to hear whining and complaining, I'll talk to my wife.

As far as the comparison to WCC, I don't see it. Jesse James makes his custom bikes from scratch and molds his own tanks and such, and the goofs at OCC just seem to assemble bikes, IMO.

Yeah, I guess that is true, I was just saying that I like the style of the OCC bikes better....but JJ's are really detailed and crafted nice

Jesses choppers are cool, but the firefighter bike takes the cake.

American Chopper


Anybody watch it last night? That I, Robot bike they built was crazy sick. That thing was just wicked looking. I was shocked Will Smith seemed so indifferent about the bike he essentially asked for.

The boys from OCC really outdid themselves...again.
