wow, they finally did something cool. personally Im not a fan of OCC, they're "bike assemblers", not fabricators as they claim... I won't give props to anybody unless they actually "make" the bike, like the frame etc. especially engine IMO.

Frame, wheels and engine are about the only things I've never seen them fabricate.
sidewayz4.6 I was wondering what you have done to your mustang because it looks like my mustang. I have a 2000 silver convertible mustang and it is all stock.

all i know for mods is he's on the juice and ran an 11.99 with it.
They just got a new machine to do their own wheels, but anyways...How could they not do their own engines???? And 2000si... Unless you have 2 million to spend, a tuttle will never touch your bike (maybe Mikey) but one of the dozens of people that are never on air...
For being so rich they sure are sh*t for brains... They smacked the FAWK out of the motor by redlining it after what .02 miles? Less than that... Dumbasses...
The electric yellow Super Snake ordered by Paul Teutul Sr. of the hit Discovery Channel show "American Chopper" was exchanged in Las Vegas at SEMA. http://www.uniqueperformance.com/images/SEMA5.jpg I wish I had a super snake!
As far as OCC, they are more like assemblers like mentioned above more than anything else. I agree, they make some nice stuff but I started to lose interest when the bike building went from Just Paul Jr. and Vinnie to adding Rick and sometimes that skinny guy with glasses on almost every build. I would rather just watch Paul Jr. build the bikes with SOME help from Vinnie and Paul Sr. yelling at them and leave everyone else to do other things. Mikey can continue to drop by also. The problem is Rick builds the best tanks from scratch so I guess they do fabricate the tanks for the theme bikes now. I still feel they have Jumped the Shark though.
Don't even get me started with when Monster Garage jumped the Shark.

What are you talking about? A custom built bike costs anywhere from 30-60 grand depending on the time and amount of fabrication put in.
A Plain jane flat black chopper custom built for me won't cost no 2 million.
Say When: I don't want a used OCC chopper, I want to have one brand new.

that bike is sick, i saw the episode. They make some sick ass bikes but i agree, assemblers/fabs is what i call them, they still do a lot of work but not all of it. Jessie James, hes a ****in sick bike builder and makes the bikes from scratch, thats ****in sick
