Did anyone watch the show last night? and if so what did you think of the results? I would voted 4.senoir 3. jesse james 2. Jr. 1.monkeys
 
dumb and dumber are idiots
jesse james needs to be bent over a desk
jrs bike was by far the best
seniors bike was ok
 
I watched it. My opinion is out of all the bike's there I didn't like Paul Jr.s bike at all. Yeah it had some cool idea's too it,but just didn't appeal to me. Jesse and Sr.'s looked more like Jap bikes and something you'd see in a sci-fi Terminator movie. Dumb and dumbers bike looked nice and more traditional looking and nothing exciting.
 
I didn't vote, I liked the Monkey's bike best, even the pink looked cool!! They were bragging about how they were the only team done on time, but they didn't fabricate a frame and everything from scratch like the other teams, kinda strange they would have them in there, but they should be happy with 2nd place. Senior and James' bikes looked lame....but were still cool in how they were built, Junior, typical flashy bike but it looked cool, he deserved to win....I didn't care for the ugly ornament on the front fender though.......overall, I thought the show was a waste of my time LOL
 
Not that I like jesse james, but I really liked his bike. I have a Buell S-1 which is very similar no bells or whistles short bike with a big inch Harley V-twin.
 
I didn't care for the ugly ornament on the front fender though.......overall, I thought the show was a waste of my time LOL

LOL !! the ornament was a bit much. Jr. should have used a big block Mopar passenger side header instead of that dumb looking header design. i would have paid to see Jesse beat up those two clowns LMAO

You could see he was really pissed, Richard was shaking too, Jesse would have pounded him to a pulp. The guy with the long beard is cool though, he is the one who built the thing, Jesse has no issues with him. Richard didn't do anything and gets all the credit.....what an ***.
 
Voted for Gas Monkey because they rode the bike to Vegas. Clean bike to boot. When I saw Junior's bike I thought, cool, where'd he find a Henderson, but it was a sham. Senior's bike was just plain weird and a leg cooker to boot. Jesse brought a crotch rocket to a chopper fight. Great craftsmanship all around but bikes are bikes, not sculpture.
 

The Program was called "Chopper Live: The Revenge"...and only Junior and GMG brought choppers.

I voted Gas Monkey! :supz:

If I had won the $550 million Powerball lottery week ago or so...I would have quit my job, grabbed a couple buddies and started doing exactly what the monkeys at Gas Monkey do..

Junior was second for me. Junior's bike is over done as always...enough with the theme bikes already.

It belongs in a museum or the lobby of some big corporation who is overcharging their customers.

How the heck could you ride that mammoth thing around??? Looks heavy and clumsy.

Number 3...JJ

Jesse James is an @$$...the most talented...but I am surprised that the stage didn't collapse from the weight of his freakin ego.

Not a chopper and certainly not something anyone could afford $$$$$$...Pay Up Sucker....maybe cool but I can't relate.

JJ should have been booted with his ego for not making 2 deadlines...and shooting his mouth off...I used to like him, now he just bugs the crap out of me.

Last but not least...Senior...
The front of his bike looked hideous...he needs to fire Jason Pohl...all his stuff looks like garbage.

Also I know Senior can build a real chopper....all he did was use every hi-tech gadget and gizmo in their multi-million dollar shop.


What they should have done is dropped 4 basket case bikes (all the same)...off to each "builder" (Jr - Sr - Jesse - Aaron) and let them go at it "mano a mano"...leave their army of guys and big bucks, and high dollar machinery behind.

Give them a deadline, and a budget and make them drive their creations to a location...and have real judges make the call.

Really the Discovery Channel did that 10 years ago with...Biker Build Off.

Those were great shows, this "The Revenge" really was a 3-1/2 hour infomercial for the 4 builders.

My 2 cents.

i agree 100 % , kind of like car warriors were they give them the same exact platforms to work with and a deadline . that would have shown exactly what each of them is capable of

Agree, I would rather see old school bikes, they all could pull off some cool ones!

when i think chopper , i think old school hand built bikes. JJ's bike last year was off the chain and he should have won. thats the style chopper i want to see. dumb and dumber were on the right track but dropped the ball IMO LOL

Gas Monkeys bike was the nicest and was a bike we all could build. They had the least amount of finance and used what any of us could. It was a true Harley.

I don't like some of the things they do on there show. But for this build they had the least equipment at hand. Cudos to them for placing second. They finished in there time frame with two guys. and they rode it there.

Did you see the old bridgeport mill he was using by hand. the same as mine in my garage. An old school builder.

.. I pictured them building Jrs. bike usuing a real 38 grille and fenders welded together off a old car. When you have the money though you can buy anything.. Just like politics.
 
I agree...Jesse's chopper should have won last year.

Gas Monkey had the least amount of resources behind them, and completed the bike in the time they were allowed.

I would park their bike in my garage and ride it any day.

I wondered how much "hands on" time Jr and Sr put into their bikes?

JJ was off the mark with his sportsbike, and didn't make the deadline while acting like a jerk the whole time.

Jr's bike was the most hideous looking thing I have seen for awhile... oh wait maybe just since the last turd of his I saw.
 
First off, in my opinion, none of the reality shows are worth watching. I did see part of american chopper when i got home last night and its grab *** horrible. I also watched the first part of the build off until i couldnt take it anymore. The OCC and JR bikes are nothing more than a "Griswold, Wagon queen, Family Trucksters". Bolt as much crap on as possible. You couldnt ride one of those bikes for more than a mile before you were sick of it. The Gas monkey bike was the most functional, and a nice bike. The Jessie bike was ok, and the build delay drama was bad. I do have some respect for jessie after watching the show jessie james blacksmith, he does use some old school tools and skill.
 
My order was:

Gas monkey
Jesse James
Sr
Jr


I liked the simple old school ish look of the gas monkey bike.

Jesse James was a work of art with all its hand made stuff.

Sr bike was ok. Just not my thing.

Jr bike was ugly too me. Too big and gaudy looking for me.

Well said
 
Vitamin C- the Family Truckster comparison is spot on! I spit my water out on the screen when i read that LOL!
