Default RE: OCC

It's not just for TV. They had issues with the Billy Joel bike on TV. Then someone on here ran into Billy Joel while he was riding that bike and posted a list of F*^k ups that the OCC crew had made. They build crap because they know it will still sell. If it wasn't crap, you'd get more than a 200 mile warranty....or at least the option to increase it.

ORIGINAL: PWHOG


Watched American Chopper Monday night where they built the bike for WENDY's and what made me laugh the most is when the spokes person for Wendy's said OCC know how to make Choppers just after we watched 'Codie' stand on a battery trying to force it into the battery box held by 'Paul Jnr' is this called an interference fit ?

If thats class motorcycle engineering I would hate to see a botch job !

If a local shop here can build $16,000 bobbers and $22,000 choppers and sell them at a profit with a 3yr warranty, all the big names should be able to.
