There are so many new faces, tools and toys on that show, its ridiculous. We met them at a bike show near here and they could have cared less about being there. I'm sure they are overwhelmed with all the success. Who wouldn't be? I'm sure, while they enjoy the fame and $, they feel the show is no longer in "their control". Rick, the other new guy, and the painter have solid futures when this thing is over. Sr. and Jr. can just retire! :D Sr. prolly never dreamed it would ever be like this. :eek2:

when jesse james went to wal-mart and autozone he sold out, but still wants to be the bad-boy rebel cant do that selling shirts at wal-mart!

american choopper i liked alot more before those AOL commercials b/c they were just like they are on the show so that made the whole show look very fake!

I think initially it was a pretty cool show, but it seems that too many things are drummed up for tv.

Apparently, they are ALWAYS way behind schedule. If that were true, I don't think the business would last too long.

Cool show, but too much drama.:o

don't take this personally but you are a fool. I'm sure you know about the wait for Pep shocks. 5-9 months! They aren't out of business. Its sucks when you have a great product, the crap customers are willing to put up with.

My Dad and I fight like that when we work together. Maybe discovery will give us a show

i agree with waht somebody said about Jesse James. I cracked up when i saw the Autozone commercial for the first time.

Let me all big and bad and drop in on Autozone and buy me some cool stuff!! Give me a break.

I'm sure a lot of the drama is real, but some made up. That's what sells, and Discovery is playing on that.

By saying that everyone has sold out, I can see where you're coming from. But when I stop and think about it, I'd probably do the same thing if I was in their position. If I had my own business like them, I'd want my name to be everywhere. Think of the extra business that will come from the cheesy AOL and AutoZone commercials. That's just more money in the Teuttle's and Jesse James' pockets.;)

From what I understand WestCoast choppers has been sold to a larger more commercially based entity. Big bucks for Jesse! As for as his tv spots, what the hell I'd say go for it when your hot and in the end he will open his own shop again. People will come to him for the name and his hands on craftsmanship.

The Tuttle boys well that may be a different story, I would imagine they fought like that all the time, a love hate thing. the next morning their all hugs and kisses. No doubt that Sr. already had his first million from the iron bussiness but this was frosting on the cake. Jr. a wealth of talent although somewhat hokey fixes and I would not really like to see how my bike was built and pieced toghether when a issue comes up.

Oh and I don't know who's H2 it was.:blah:

Just like any "REALITY" show they only show you the very small parts they want you to see.

I am a little impressed that they are starting to do more of their own custom work.. It seemed when they first started it was just buy parts and putting them together, much like we do our quads. Now the fabrication has stepped up a bit!

hey, i agree. Make your money when you can because tomorrow it could all be over but Jesse James and Autozone????? Dang thats a stretch. lol

You know, I'm glad somebody else noticed that. besides the small custom stuff Jr did most of th e stuff was farmed out.

I personally like those shows where they have a build off between two bike builders, they make almost everything from scratch like Jesse does. now that is awe inspiring.

Yeah, Mikey is awesome. I think its funny whenhe threatens his dad. lol

It was nice seeing Jr. designing the frame himself, they still sent it out but atleast he actually made up the plans for it.

yea i went to a bike show in newyork and they were there... well you had to pay to get a picture with them and wait in line just to see them or even get a chance to buy anything off of them.... lets see.. wait in line 300 people plus just to see the tshirts and paul sr.. no thats ok.. and look they dont even make half of there stuff they get stuff sent out to get painted.. cromed... the only thing they do make themselfs is assemble.. the tanks they have.. just cut and weld same with the fenders. wheels.. forks and frames and motors... they just say what they want and assemble..

now look at indian larry.. two guys.. one paints and assebles.. one thinks and creates parts.. now that a motor cycle builder..


but like you said.. they couldnt of cared less if i was there or not.
