The Cadillac bike build off was from 2011, why is it being mentioned again now?

I honestly don't know what anyone sees in a chopper. Damb are those two fugly bikes... I can honestly say in all the years I've lived in this area, I think I've seen maybe 2 choppers out on the streets. You just don't see them around here.

2011 called, they want their bikes back. I watched the show but never desired to actually own something like these. Have an acquaintance who owns one OCC chopper and another of a similar style. He was. Into them for over 55 grand apiece. A few years back, he was actively trying to sell them and I had an opportunity to ride one at a motorcycle show at the beach. Honestly, I felt like a clown. and the bike was not fun to ride.

Last I heard he still has the bikes, nobody wants them.

Now, I would really like one of the Mikey'spaintings for my home office.
