I know it's "cool" to rag on these guys, but I usually like the bikes they build. But that is one seriously fugly bike.

I really like what Ness came up with though.

You know this is what the customer wanted. Supposedly he is looking to opening OCC Roadhouse food joints & bike will be on display at each opening.

Mikey and Paul Teutul Sr. flew in Monday from their New York-based Orange County Choppers, the inspiration for the hit TLC show, to unveil Schussler's bike in St. Louis Park. The unveiling will be featured in an upcoming show. They know Schussler because he's working on a deal to open "Orange County Choppers: America's Roadhouse" joints around the country.

If their food is anything like their bikes, I'll just have a beer, thanks.

That's the way it's done. Just ask Gun's & Roses!

On another note, I guess its been a while since I watched the show. When did Lee join the crew at OCC? He used to work and bee on the show for Milwalkee Iron/Southern Steel TV show.

I loved the way the back of the bike looked, but the front is aweful.

This was the first thing I thought. OCC is running short on design ideas, so they're copying others. That's cool...the Japs have been cloning Harleys for +10 years now. OCC had a good run, but it's time they say goodbye to TV. Nowadays, Sponge Bob and Family Guy are more entertaining.
