I cant decide between seniors and fast and louds. I dont like jesse's because he was talking smack about being juniors gawdy bike. And than this year he goes and builds a blinged out bike. Fast and louds is a real chopper, the red is alittle too light for me. Id rather be riding seniors bike. Juniors bike is too cookie cutter.

CleyonMy order is...
My thoughts... you want a custom or chopper, get out in the garage and BUILD your own chopper, not go out and buy what someone else thinks is a custom or chopper. I miss the old days when you went out and figured out how to make your own custom part from the tools you had on hand, not just order in the latest trinket from the CCI catalog or run it up on a cad/cam operated $50-100,000 custom 8 axis machining center.As for the bikes, FnL is the one that remembers what a chopper is supposed to be! Low, clean, and nothing more than needs to be there, and yeah.. jockey shift ("suicide" refers to cutting the rocker pedal on the clutch down and putting a spring on it) and no brake may not be the brightest... then again, it was all about "GO' not stop, and that front brake was just extra weight anyways, not to mention you ever try stopping with a front drum when it got wet? Better off doing a Fred Flintstone, LOL ;)
AnonThats basically the true spirit of hot rodding. Wish it was more widely embraced too.
AnonI wouldnt want any of those junks. They all look ugly to me. Juniors is a poor attempt to go overly retro and mix the theme of a 50s soda shop in with the bike.
Jesse, eh he should stick to choppers.
Fast and loud, ugly color and just fucking dumb as all hell to have no front brake and suicide shift. Sure the bars and forks look clean, but is it about riding or looking clean ?
Seniors bike ? Er uh you mean that gaudy shiny piece of crap thingy is a bike ?
I can't believe im saying this but I'd go with senior.. Fast n louds is great but it looks like any other.. no comment on the other two LOL
1jakd_hipyThat was a hour and a half that ill never get back... They dragged out so bad I hated all the bikes by the end of it
These knucklheads are ridiculous sellouts! I ain't mad though, Jesse made is acceptable to sell Bikes for $60,000 and a cpl of my bros got rich from the idiots willing to pay for them LOL!
StevebThey all look like shit. Indian Larry was the only one on that show who could build a good bike.
I put the vote in for fast and loud because its a real chopper
Kinda hard to vote since they all have a different style. But FnL and OCC look like the top two.
Did Jesse build a mini bike?! What da hell? It looks like Senior came strong this time.
