Well for anyone that ever watched OCC choppers, Vinny left the show and apparently started building his own bike line called V Force choppers, along with Cody the kid as his partner. I watched the show a few times and thought is was a little corny, but was kind of cool to see how bikes are manufactured. It sure would be a cool way to make a living..Anyway if anyone cares here is the link..http://www.vforcecustoms.com/index.p...tpage&Itemid=1

 

That was a very interesting read...4 months ago.

 

Well sorry man, I was not sure if anyone posted it or not, I have never seen anything or heard about V force choppers..

 

i didnt know about this either.as far as im concern those 2 were the only real builders at occ anyway.especially vinnie.i wonder how long before rick leaves occ he is better than all of em.paulie is a frickin joke.

 

Old news, but it's good news. Vinnie is one of the few guys there that had his head screwed on straight. While Jr. and Sr. were doing their BS arguing routine, Vinnie was making stuff happen.

 

No harm done reposting, good read. I think Vinnie didn't like the whole celebrity thing, and really, it took the focus off the originality of the bike building. Now, it's like go to the back and grab a bunch of pre-fabbed stuff and we'll dress it up a little different, but the Paul's were off wherever hob knobbing. The Jr./Sr. thing was an original idea but it got old when it got copied. I dunno, it was better when it was more primitive, inventive, long hours and less farming out of basic work. Ya, Rick I would see going too, he doesn't drive 2 hours each way from PA for a dog and pony show.

 

I can't believe he took Cody with him -- that kid seemed like a bit of a f-up to me....??? Maybe now that it's his money on the line, he'll straighten up and fly right....

Either way, it will probably be easier to turn a profit without having to pay big money to slackers like Mike Teutel for doing nothing more than taking out the garbage and disconnecting people on the telephone....

 

i am happy for vinnie and cody. i always felt like they werent appreciated. they treated cody like crap towards the end.....

 

I forgot about Rick. He is a pretty cool laid back dude, I am surprised he was not involved with V Force Choppers. I did see the episode of OCC when Vinny left the buisness and he just looked aggravated, I guess dealing with those A-holes he worked for, just drove him over the edge with all the deadlines. He now can sit back and do his own thing with out the pressure..

 

I agree ... The fame got to their heads.
