QUITE FUNNY, July 7, 2005
This review is from: American Chopper: The Series - Fire Bike (DVD)
No one really knows how much of this "reality" TV is real. I am of the opinion it is more a product of crafty editing than anything else. I also happen to think the guys at American Choppers crank out some of the funniest TV today. Speaking as someone who grew up in an environment of a family owned business, and who still works in a family owned business, I can certainly understand why they act the way they do. And a side note to Grizzly, the one star review guy. Dude, you're BITTER. Your precious biker lifestyle is being exploited by some folks who want to make a little money. It's the American Way. Get over it.

COMMANDO HEROES AGAIN!, May 9, 2005
This review is from: American Chopper: The Series - Fire Bike (DVD)
Speaking on the authority of a REAL Biker who has LIVED the Lifestyle for over 35 of my almost 53 years, during which I have ridden the same '63 Harley Panhead, (which I built and rebuilt from the ground up with my own two hands), longer than the Turtle Kids have been alive, My Brothers and I all find Orange County Chumps to be some of the Funniest Comedy on DVD! Their Ol'Man is one of the greatest comedians to try and call himself a "biker"; seemingly, the only thing that HE works at is running his MOUTH! What little I have been able to watch of this show without developing acute nausea, I have NEVER seen Turtle, Sr. EVER pick up a tool or lend a hand to help anyone at ANYTHING.
Altho I respect the idea behind the Fire Bike, and the bikes built by OCC may have some eye appeal, but are otherwise a waste of parts & labor, as they are totally unridable; you would need an entire parking lot to turn one of them around, and the spider bike in particular, with its ridiculous rear fender, would give you a radical shower if one attempted to ride it on wet pavement, much less in the rain!(And I would LOVE to know what company sells them INSURANCE!)
My Brothers and I have long debated which is more hilarious, the Turtles, with their hour long screaming matches, or the sidewalk commandos who give the mighty OCC free advertising, running around with T-shirts & other gear, none of whom OWN, or probably even KNOW HOW to ride a MOTROCYCLE! Only Hang-arounds and Wannabees worship these comedians; REAL Bikers only LAUGH at them!
As far as other reviewers who are so critical of my well earned opinion are concerned, just read their other reviews (if they have any)!
At least Jesse James RIDES his creations to shows! The Turtles TRAILER Theirs (and then have to FLY IN their mechanics when one of their monstrosities breaks down!)
