Who liked the OCC bike?

[tvltre]

After seeing the types of bikes that OCC has created before, nothing stands out to me with this one.

*Lord Stanley Cup not included.

Boring. Wouldn't put my name in the raffle box if it were a free raffle...ok, maybe if it were free, but it's a very bland bike.

Looks like the stock OCC bike with a Blackhawks paint job.

They should have asked JR Designs to do it. Paul Tuetel Jr. was always the creative genius behind the OCC bikes done for their show. Paul Sr. is a raving lunatic who is showing signs of early altzheimers and dementia. Has anyone seen the Sr vs Jr show this season?



I bet Jr would have built a better bike...

 

[Rdrhwke]

Not impressed at all. A few tweaks but it's basically the same as a black and silver chopper they have in the photo gallery on their site.



Since Paul Jr left the designs have gone to shit.

I agree. Jr. was the creative force behind OCC and would have made the Hawks a really kickass chopper.



The old man definitely needs to see a shrink.



If he really believes he made OCC all by himself, he's delusional.



The way he trashes Jr. every chance he gets is disgusting.



And not attending Junior's wedding shows how much of an asshole he truly is.



But I guess the fact that none of his children want anything to do to him speaks volumes.

After all of his drug and alcohol abuse it's no wonder why he has a short fuse. Good that he got clean but he's going to be fucked up for the rest of his life.



Chopper was lame...

Paulie is more creative and cutting edge. They should have asked him. The old man never does a damn thing except take credit for the work everyone else does anyway. All he ever does is *****, *****, *****, *****, *****.

the whole lot of'em seem like a bunch of dorks. but i'll still watch the show.

And surround himself with ass kissing clowns like Jason Fool.......who wouldn't be able to design a hockey puck without a computer program.



But do you notice he never really rips into Rick??



Probably because he knows full well that once Rick leaves, the old man has no one really worth a shit.

I never really found out why Vince left.

It was a buildup of a few things.



One of the main reasons was that Vinnie always seemed to be in the middle when the old man went off on Jr. And a few times Sr. jumped on him in the process. One time he sent Vinnie home because the shop was dirty........which is really stupid considering the fact that Mike did not but take up space there.



The other one was Jr. always being away for one reason or another.



He basically just got fed up with all the crap.

I think he might be working with Paulie again.

Vinnie is with Paul Jr at Paul Jr Designs. So is Joe. He didn't get on camera a lot. Sort of a big guy with long hair. He was running the OCC merchandise shop before the new building opened. I really don't know why he got fired. Probably because he didn't kiss the old man's ass..........and could lift more.

Sorry, I could never see myself ridding a chopper with the Indianhead on it. Now riding a chopper around town wearing my Hawks jersey, that I would do for sure. Just looks ridiculous IMHO.

As the bike was wheeled onto the ice a mere 30 feet from me I found myself overwhelmed with a glowing sense of not giving a shit.

You were sitting close enough I could have thrown shit at you?



Originally they were going to have the SC on the back but something must have made them change their mind. I'm glad as it's time for the Cup to return to Toronto.

I'll go against the grain. Although not great I don't think it's that bad. I like the simplicity of the design myself. Some of their bikes are far too loud for my tastes and too "in your face". Good for some but personal tastes I like em a bit loud.



The man that should have designed the bike isn't with us anymore and that would be Indian Larry. Not just because of the name but that man could design and build a bike.



Out of 10 popped collars the bike gets a 6.899999999

Indian Larry was definitely one of the best.



I don't like the bike simply because it's a somewhat tweaked version of one of their productions bikes. But that's the difference between the old man and his kid. The old man is about doing what's most convenient to get a bike done as fast as possible. His son wants to make every bike unique in it's own way regardless of how long it takes.

Just wanted to get a idea of what you guys thought.
