He's Back, Why?

[trike lady]

I had recently read some where that Paul Sr. is returning to TV with another dysfunctional bike building program. :rofl: I didn't care much for the show when it was first on and won't be viewing it. Deja vu. I guess he's broke and needs the money. As long as a wireless signal reaches my apartment, I'll be on the computer. Being retired I've got plenty to do; keeping my apartment clean is at the top of the list, as is diet & exercise, taking senior citizen college classes, cross stitch and learning to play the mandolin. :clapping: I've been away from my friends in Deming 3 weeks and health wise I'm doing much better, I am enjoying my walks into town.

People in general love drama.

No doubt Paul Sr. still has a loyal following that want to see him back on tv.

He probably does also need the $$ a show will provide him and his bike business.

Trouble is most of the rest of the country is hip to his ways and likely won't tune in after the first new episode, noting that his "15 minutes" have come & gone...:Shrug:

Glad to hear you're doing better T/L. Keep up the good work...:clapping:

Say what you want, But when OCC First aired Motorcycle sales of all kinds were in the dumper, And his show with the combination of bike shows OCC spawned saved the industry..By getting people who otherwise had no interest in bikes interested in the sport..:Shrug:...

Agree, but the market is soft now

Not many have disposable income for high priced toys now

Soft is putting it mildly ...And it hasn't hit bottom yet...:Shrug:

Frank'���� do you have the regular T-shirt or one of the wife beaters ����

 

[trike lady]

The restaurant was probably expensive, not enough food for the price and fighting in the kitchen to entertain the patrons.:rofl: :laugh:

Frank,

In 2005 my wife, Kathy, and I, road to the Orange County Choppers Showroom in Newburgh, NY. I hope you didn’t pay the $45 dollars they were asking for “T-shirts”. What would they cost today?



And to think poor Paul Teutul is now “Broke”.

 

[bikerbillone]

I don't see another OCC show as successful. I guess there are 'rich' people that can afford his crazy looking motorcycles, but how many are interested? It's nothing more than as show machine, or something to sit in a garage and collect dust. Resale value, forget it.

 

[Jack Klarich]

IMO, none of the OCC bikes looked to be very comfortable let alone practical or dependable for every day riders

Not to mention if you break it you can bet NO HD dealership is going to work on it

Just some thing to think about

It was a freebie when the first open house happened, many moons ago. Never bought a Tee from any one in my existence, they were all given to me. Best part is they still fit and make excelent polishing rags being cotton.

Yeah, but no

Not talking about the IMO ugly theme bikes

Bikes like this that would be built by them for the consumers

I have a few Harley ''T''s And a Victory ......All free With the purchase of a bike...

 

[peteg59]

I would fall out of my chair if I found any true Harley Davidson parts on any of their creations.

Majority of all of the bikes on the show used aftermarket engines, transmissions and frames, as well as the associated hardware.

Toward the end of the show's run, and to their credit, they did step up to CAD/water jet fabrication for some of the stuff they used in the builds.

Would I watch again? Probably unless it turned into another family feud, drama filled sitcom again...:Shrug:

I still have one of their hoodies I wear on occasion...

That’s all ya got :Shrug:

My last new car had those tag dealer frames on it , so I asked my salesman to give me the address to send the $100 per month advertising bill to.

 

[trike lady]

OCC will never have this type of creativity. Touch the images and the music plays.

Even though the local HD shop is near to them , they use S&S power. As allthere frames are from the same manufacturer. There just “Look at me” bikes .
