RE: Orange County Choppers
I don't know if a world headquarters will actually be a factory.
They are building a "world headquarters"
I think it's gonna be headquarters for all their other stuff they sell and deal in.
Just like the "ness" thread, alot of people want to bash someone or something that is "untouchable" to them.
I've said before, if these "bashers" were to meet them in person and asked to have a beer or to go for a ride on one of their bikes, I'm sure each and everyone of them would junp on the chance. They wouldn't have the ***** to say what they say here, to their face! Possy, internet fools.

RE: Orange County Choppers
My only beef with them concerns my only contact with them. A friend of mine was hit by a drunk teenager about two years ago. He was on his Dyna, and had not even made the first payment on it. She crossed over the center line and t-boned him...and left him for dead. He ended up losing the lower half of his left leg (feom just below the knee). This guy is a special Ed teacher/coach at a local high school here, and is just a super guy.
Anyway, I emailed OCC to ask them if the fellas had any ideas on how to adapt is bike to accomodate his prostetic leg. I did not want them to give us anything, or even actually do anything, just wanted advice. They told me that they really don't do bikes like that, and had no advice for me. It wasn't three months later when the unveiled a bike for a guy that was in a wheel chair. I was pretty amazed that they blew me off like that, when all they had to do was provide me with the names of a few shops that could help us out.
Anyway, we held some fund raisers to help him offset the medical bills, and to we had some money leftover (he did anyway) to get his bike fixed. The damage to the bike was about 6000.00. In addition to gettng it fixed, he had a three-wheel adapter and and electric shifter put on it. He is in the process of going back to two wheels now. He will keep the electric shifter.
The reason he had to repair the bike on his own was due to his insurance check being ONE day late, and they denied the claim. The girl had no insurance either, and served three months in jail. She took a week to turn herself in after she hit him..
Anyway, long story longer, I was dissapointed with them not taking some interest in our story. But I would bet they get a lot of that, so it is understandable.
I don't watch the show anymore, but I did enjoy them in Wild Hogs.

Everyone is always jealous of something they can't do or can't have. If you can build a better bike or get your own TV show, go do it otherwise STFU.

I could not care less for OCC's apparel or parts. Now it is a fact that I have nocomparission point as a customer (because I cannot put down the cash for one of their bikes). But as for looks and style... Jesse James/WCC is way over the Teutul's.

Perhaps OCC is gearing up to make customs at a price that is around the same as a factory Harley? Wanna talk about owning the world? There it is...That's the only reason I can see them having a need for a shop that size, of course I could be totally wrong. Maybe Pauly needs alot of "inspiration" space

Although I think the novelty of the show has worn off, all the power to them. I hope they make another 50 million and put another 100 people to work, we'd all be doing the same, if we could.
