Nitro bike was pretty neat too. I think he has way too much fun on that show. I mean prepping for a motorcycle drag race by riding in a fighter jet doesn't seem that related.

Anyone know what his helmet was?  I have never seen a modular helmet that opened like that.

Dude's a turd and should never be where he is because of what little he has done in life.  He is a marketing ploy. I am just sick of these shows that put people in the spotlight for a few months and then start new with someone else.  Monster Garage was perfect for its time though, I loved that show.  Dead Man is just a filler show.

what he has done in life? do you even knpow what your talking about?  he owns multiple bussinesses, is partial owner in a few more, and is banging SANDRA BULLOCK!!  for christs sake, american chopper is a marketing ploy too, but that doesn't mean their motorcycles or them are turds!

He's banging sandra bullock alright.

The fact that he makes many of the parts is commendable unlike the idiots on american chopper who do their best work when fighting with each other and waiting for the UPS guy and "building a bike" with crap they see in a catalog.

He used more parts of his make ... though they both used harley based motors etc.

Fine they are all turds, but JJ atleast was into jap as well.

Cool.

I know exactly what I am talking about, and like you I can have an opinion.  I do not think he is anything special because he makes things for himself.  Millions of people can weld and make things when they have endless money.  Biker Build Off was a better show that displayed local shops that are found in the back woods where the parts were still made on a bag of lead shot and a hammer.  So what if JJ owns a hundred businesses?  Does that qualify him for another tv show where he does staged dares?!  Who cares that Sandra Bullock is banging him, irrelevant.

And as for OCC, their only reputable days where back in the late 90's and early 2000's.  They are a commercialized cookie cutter company now.  The only thing good about their company is the fights on tv.  Hmmmm, must be why Paul Jr. left?!?!  I wouldn't ride anything they make now.  The original and creative one-off bikes deserved the credit they were given.  Tv changes it all as that is what society wants.
