Sorry if this has already been discussed. But..........

Jesse's bike was OK, Sr.'s bike too. But why the hell did they call them sport bikes.
Sr's bike looked heavy as hell. And what was with the three front shocks?
Jesse's bike was weird, and he took too long to build it.
The pink bike was a piece of crap.
Jr's bike was alright.
Did it deserve to win........?
I guess it was the best looking of the bunch.

Who was in last place. They never said who lost.
Was it Jesse?

When you say Jessie's bike was ok/ are you looking at the specs? Are you taking into consideration that the geometry of that bike was taken off a MotoGP bike, or are you talking about just looks?

I don't like Jessie but his bike had no frame, do you know how hard it is to use the engine as the frame?

This show is a popularity contest, not a bike contest

Was just going to say that.

I would have liked to see Jessie's being ridden, he duck walked it in with engine running, but I'm pessimistic that it was a functioning motorcycle. Ambitious bike to build, but I have my doubts that he could have ridden it from Texas like the bearded duo did.
 
I think Jesse should have won.
Jr's bike was crap.
Jesse's color scheme was alright. I just didn't like the tail section of Jesse's bike and he should have had it done in time.
 
Now that you mention that, I did see that he never actually rode the damn thing.

I would like to see Jesse's bike ridden hard. Apex wheelies, power slides etc.
 
People get to vote via text message, so wasn't that what determines who wins? votes not judges...

Jesses bike no matter how cool or advanced it was he took double the original time given to build it. And acted like he didnt give a **** about the rules of the competition...Maybe his attitude affected how much people liked him or his bike build...

Personally I like Paul Sr's bike the most. I like the fact everything was machined, and I liked the carbon fiber rear shock spring...

The fast and loud guys bike was pretty lame, it wasn't very custom built IMO...
 
I have to agree with the results,jesse is such a d*** although his bike was cool looking,the fast and loud boys annoying as heck and a common looking bike for this build off,sr's bike should've been second as mentioned it was more about popularity and senior and jesse are not liked so the outcome was expected.Love the sr -jr show have been watching for years

Well tune in tonight. Cause i think it is the last episode for American chopper.
Can`t believe its been 10 years for that show.
 
There's a new Biker Build Off? Any download links?

Was this a one off show or are they doing a series like in the old episodes?

Edit: They're calling it "Chopper Live - Road to Revenge"

And the pt 2 is called Chopper Live - The Revenge
 
Saw it this past weekend, really didn't like the format of how they did the show.

I like how the bike build off show was done in the past when they featured Indian Larry, the Exile guy, Chica and some others.

I may be in the minority :shrug: but that's just my opinion.

The way this last show was designed it just felt contived and a vehicle to promote other Discovery Channel shows
