Your vote. Senior, Jessie James, Junior or Gas Monkey?

Seriously?

No motorcyclists here? Dancing with the Stars gets more response than this. Gezus.

Junior's definitely. Loved them all but I think Junior has that special touch that makes his bikes art. I have a Harley and have sold them. I think the voting order has a lot to do with who's popular right now. Sr. was kind of a jerk to Jr. and Jessie (well, need I say anything?) and I think people picked the best bikes with a bias on the makers. I'm glad you posted this. I get up really early and stayed up to watch the show and went to bed before the results came back.

I thought it was Junior, Senior, Fast and Loud (Gas Monkeys) then Jesse. If Jesse could get the chip off his shoulder and stop with his attitude he might get a little farther honestly.

The fact that it came out that he asked for an extra 3 weeks after asking for another 2 weeks taking him 11 total to make that bike tells me he doesn't have it anymore. Everyone else was done in the initial 6 weeks. He used to have it, but not anymore.

I wonder if they invited Paul Yaffe? Fast and Loud were not bad but Paul Yaffe is in the realm of the best and you practically NEVER see his bikes. Discovery had a special on him a few years back and he is up there with Junior and Senior.

I went to a bike show a few years back Orange County was there before they broke up the shop, Paul Yaffe, Jesse and Billy Lane. Honestly Paul Yaffe and Billy Lane had the best when seeing them in person.

Jessie James is an arrogant prick. Senior has issues, Junior is meh, I vote Mickey

Nvm thought i was voting for my favorite person on the show aha.

Gas Monkey, beautiful restored Harley, ontime for the build-off and it was ridden To Las Vegas with no breakdowns as far as I know.

Jesse James Ducati/Harley looked fun to ride if it had a real seat, and
I didn't see a headlight on Seniors bike?

Jrs. Nice exhaust but I like a bike to be considered an everyday rider and not just a 4th July parade show bike.

Yeah, it seemed like a popularity contest.

Does anyone have a problem that Gas Monkey didn't build one from scratch? Buy old and shine it up is what they do, but I wish they had started from scratch. Of course, I'd take any of them and be happy as fuck.

didn't like any of them to be honest. so I didn't vote

Both Senior and James seem to be leaning like Confederate motorcycles. They're cool as hell, but I wouldn't call them choppers.


If Senior and Junior were going to go into another company, I'd suggest the direction of Confederate, and not just build shit that looks like both of them are already doing.

All I've got is a 1200C Sportster, so I can't throw any rocks.

Gas monkey for the oldschool approach.
I liked Sr.'s terminator style bike.

why didn't you link to where you can see the bikes? doh!

I assumed that you'd watched it.

My vote was for Fast and Loud's bike. The only thing I didn't like about it was NO FRONT BRAKE. Other than that it was one of the nicest chop jobs I've seen of late. Very nice motor. When the guy was riding it he was the ONLY ONE that horsed the bike around (side to side) and it looked like it handled extremely well.

My second pick would be Jr's bike. Very nice Art Deco theme and execution. He was the real artist at OCC considering theme bikes.

Third would be Jesse's bike. He's a real craftsman. I loved Monster Garage when it was on.
However...
what a friggen a-hole!
I think at this point what he really needs is to have the living shit beat out of him. He's areally good builder but needs some lessons in being a human being.

Fourth...
I can appreciate the method of building and all the trick machining but...
The only thing that looked good on the bike was the tank. Everything else had horrible proportions. The rear swing arms didn't go with the rest of the bike. The front end was too close to upright, too bulky looking and I don't remember any headlights either.
I can't imagine that the geometry of the whole bike was anywhere near what it needed to handle well either. Sr. needs some better design people.
