I religiously watch that show. Along with Monster Garage, Monster House, and now American Hotrods, Southern Choppers (reminds me of some of my family members), and Rides on TLC.

 

MIA bike was very cool.
They were here in Birch Run michigan a couple weeks ago,Mikey is nothing like he is on TV,he messed with daddy to get him going.
Pauly Jr is a great fabricator,big Pauly is pretty hard on Jr.
I love it when Mikey messes something up

 

The whole family loves that show, we watch it whenever it's on... and in fact my daughter got an American Chopper t-shirt for Christmas! Paul senior is one heckuva tough boss...but i think a lot of that Machosism is just show, he's really a softy at heart.

 

My girlfriend was telling me that they have a new show out. It's still American Choppers but it's something different.

 

Yeah sometimes they feature other bike builders across the country.

 

commatoze : i saw the spiderman bike in daytona during bike week. its was even more incredible in person. even had spiderman riding it ( no it wasnt mikey ) scott

 

My wife basically HATES bikes....but enjoys watching the show. It's amazing how the bikes take shape. It always makes me laugh though when Paul Sr. complains about how Jr. is taking too long and has no work ethic, etc... He is of course making these complaints while his feet are up on the desk or as he's heading off to they dentist, the gym, etc, etc.

 

He is a BIG teddy bear,but that is what makes the show.

Hey thats Mikeys DADDY

 

big blue ...... sh may be thinking of either the great biker buildoff or southern chopper ( i only saw it 1 time ) not as good as occ. u know mikey may be a mechanical idiot but i hears he scored very high on his sat's. i guees hes what u wouild call book smart...... what do i know i live amongst the amish ..

 

They had the best S.B. commercials. My fav. was where Mikey jumped the cement mixers. Too funny.

 

I thought the metalwork and the paint job on the POW/MIA bike was outstanding, but the front end sucks.

The fuel tank is up so high the rider can barely see over it. They ruined an outstanding design with the fuel tank placement.

I think this show is cool and full of showmanship. The old man could take paully jr. with ease size 12 in the right spot. Then would cry like a baby cause he hurt the kid. I think that is part of the appeal. Those bikes look great I wonder about the longevity of them though. They seem a little rushed but maybe a good place to put a few thousand with no name. I would have liked to have had the POW bike for a conversation piece. As far a riding give me the old comfortable Road King. I like racing those ricers(organ doaners) The only thing is the racw has to be from here to Ca. and back.
