Ok all this vs. that stuff got me thinkin. I love choppers and I'm sure most of you fellas do too. So, which one would you take if you had the $$ West Coast Chopper (Jessie James) or Orange County Chopper (Tuttle’s)?

I’m more of a rebel type myself, so I’d have to go with a Diablo from WCC.

How about you guys?

 

I'd have to go with the Tuttles....

That Vietnam Vet bike made me a believer.....

 

I would also go with Jesse James. He is still the innovator when it comes to choppers.

 

Oh, and Jesse actually does all of his stuff in house, where the OCC has to order and ship out stuff to build their bikes.

 

I'll take the aussie that hand built the beautiful piece of machinery for "The World Bike Build-off"
What a work of art!

 

Jesse james is so much more talented than OCC, he actually builds all of the tanks, frames and accessorie pieces in shop and usually by himself from scratch. i really wish they would get him of the show monster garage and give him a show where he builds bikes. he is a bike builder and an artist as opposed to OCC bieng a bike assembler. dont get me wrong i like some of the stuff OCC does but anyone who has a good imagination and killer welding skills could do the work that they do. just my .02

 

Jesse for sure.

Dont get me wrong Paul Sr, and Paulie put out nice looking bikes, but those bikes are for show. Nice to look at.

I want a cruiser I can ride and not worry the whole time about chips in the paint, scuffs and scratches.

Jesse's bikes are nice like that too, but had a "rideable" look to em. Example: his copper bike (the one with Kid Rock)...now as for the Spider bike....thats a show bike...not a daily rider.

IMO

 

Kawasaki....

 

Kawasaki?

That's not a bike.

 

They are both sellouts. Plus, choppers are hella-lame. Get a real 'hog for pete's sake, or a saki-saki like beaney.

 

now thats a bike Ducati S4R
hopefully in my garage soon

 

james is a *****, i wouldnt give him any of my cash regardless of his "skillz". The prices they want for those bikes is crazy anyways, id go get a crotchrocket for a few grand and put the rest of the 130k down on a house or something.

 

I almost agree with you 100%

Jesse is a rich, *****...no dought.

It takes a lot of talent to make a bike from the frame up. I respect that in him, but as for a person...he can get bent.

Prices....thats just like anything else...your buying the NAME...not the bike. Their (OCC and WCC) products sale.

I wouldnt go with a crotchrocket though...I'd get a Honda Cruiser or something...crotchrockets dont have the same feel as a motorcycle.....almost like it's not even a bike

 

Niether, Iv'e seen bikes that I like better from other lesser known builders and I can't stand Jesse James. But don't get me wrong, I'd be more than happy to ride any of the bikes on any of these shows.

 

Lmao.... you serious?
