I just got done watching and there was no doubt Jr would win. Wasn't this a "chopper" build off? I can hardly stand to look at JJ and listen to the crap that comes out of his mouth! What a blow hard.

Juniors build IMO was just to big and a car theme? It's a bike,, come on!

Dumb and dumbers bike was a restored slightly modded bike i could do in my shop in fact my shop has done better in my opionon. Jesse james bike took alot of skill and like he said it was to challenge himself. Sr bike was just clean but to much machine not enough handmade. Jr on the otherhand way to big and like jesse said on the first bike not ment to go long distance. If based on usefullness id go fast n loud jesse then sr but thats not how its done. Just my .02

IMO (2) chops and (2) sport bikes...I would have voted for the grease monkeys...JR's bikes use the same Independent frame that anyone can go and buy and its not rideable unless you have a synthetic right leg that will hold up to some heat....Getting on your build and riding it to the destination is a big deal to me...Thats what the original biker build off was and this should be.

any know what the voting looked like (number of votes for each)
I personally thought the host/commentator (don't remember his name) was terrible....no interview or comments after the winner was announced
So they originally had 6 weeks (I believe) to build the bike but they extended to amount of time because JJ did not have his ready, sorry we all have dead lines adjust your schedule accordingly.

Sr. also got some extra time but not as much as Jesse. Jesse totally made a fool of himself on the show and that's how he is. He is not a for TV individual at all. Not sure why dumb and dumber were even on the show unless it was just to promote their show??? There are many great bike builders out there. Sr. may just die out peacefully now that they are going off the air. OCC is to bikes as what SOA is to Motorcycle Clubs, Blown out of proportion and skewed to get ratings, nothing to do with real life. The real day to day stuff would put you to sleep in your recliner faster than Pawn stars does to me.

There is nothing real about reality TV. It is all staged and often scripted. Wasn't the show called "Chopper Live"? There was only one chopper and it didn't even win. Thank God OCC is going away. Jessee is an act. He probably started out as a real guy but now plays up his bad boy image for the camera and ratings. They are all acting. It was almost embarrassing to watch the first night. I tuned in for the last 10 minutes the second night just to confirm that Paul Jr. won. That was predictable. All of the guys that I know that really build bikes in their garage didn't even watch and could have given a s**t who won, lol.

Nice to hear from you Andy, Ya we did see that about reality TV out to Sturgis at the "Full Throttle" heck we had to get out of the filming path since we were not "Bad ***" enough. It was purely staged.

I watched them do a re-shoot at Full Throttle. They didn't like the way the scene looked so did it over. In between shoots Michael Ballard was posing with customers for pictures. What a joke.
