Jessie James basically trashed Buells :/

[RamAirZ]

The things I'd let her do to me haha also in other news.....anyone remember the movie spykids?

well puberty treated her GOOD

Of the four bikes, I'd prefer GMG's build. Also, does Sr's bike remind anyone of the Confederate or Magpul-Ronin 1125R styles... at least the front end?

Im in for Senior's bike. Hate the guy but he did good with that billet aluminum.

I saw Jesse at Sturgis in 1999. He was showing several of his bikes at the Camel Road House. He was really decent, sat, shot the ****, talked bikes, you know regular guy stuff. Like someone said above, by 2004 he was mainstream famous, and just barely there. Stayed behind things, really didn't speak to anyone. By 2006, I'm not sure he even shoed up at his own display anymore.

Either way, we all know what opinions are like.

Speaking of spy kids...

That brings back memories.

I loved Dino Riders!

I wonder if Sal was a last minute backup for Jerry springer. This is getting pretty lame and ridiculous.

No ****! Really dragging it out for 2 useless hours.[down]

All the other guys do is open a parts catalog, buy a bunch of stuff, and slap it together with a custom chassis (which all look the same)

huh [confused] Did you not see them fabin' up all the parts from blocks of aluminum. OCC made their own wheels and frame from a Watert-jet. How is that from a magazine?
You can like the GMG bike but dont let it take away from the amazing skills and hardwork that went into the other bikes. Cause if Gas Monkey had those machines they would be using them too. Also why its a little unfair.....

About Jesse James' comment regarding American sport bike - alot of good points have been made above that I concur with - but have you ever known Jesse James to be a sport bike guy at all? Has he even spent much time riding sport bikes? Does he even persue high performance? From what I have seen of his ideas, it is all old school, low tech. No advancement of motorcycle design.

Jessie said on the show yesterday he loved a badass sports bike and owns and rides sports bike. Also had a comment saying he drags knees.



My take on Jessie's comments is who really gives a **** what his opinion is? He's entitled to have an opinion, so hate him because it's different than yours? Not my style but hay to each his own.

I personally liked Jessie's bike the most. In not into choppers/harleys at all and sr's front end was hideous. I would ride the effing wheels off of Jessie's bike.

 

[GregoXB]

Who is Jessie James?

 

[anrkizm95]

One of the best fabricators in the world

yea hes in the top few million,top 10 not

GMG bike was the truest to chopper/Bobber form. I hated the bars though.
Jesse's bike was ok but too many shiny things for a sportbike. (which he claimed it to be)
Seniors bike was the toughest looking on profile.
Juniors bike still makes me gag thinking about it.

One last ointment for me, I thought they should've issued the results in order, last, 3rd, and then first. That way we'd know which **** got last, Jesse or Paul Sr.

 

[vance580]

I heard Jesse is already preparing for the next one. He is gonna put the gas in the frame, the oil in the swingarm, and run a radial brake. Says the idea just came to him in his head. He is such an innovator.

Actually he rides sportbikes. In one of the episodes in his new show it showed him riding his ducati.

Him talking about american sportbikes was definitly directed at buell. Kinda put me off but i still voted for him and think his bike was bad ass.

Thats not how its done but i agree with you they should have announced 3rd. You do second runner up, runner up, and then first. If you do it your way second place gets no recognition or applause.

Well sure they're fabricating a bunch of parts, but they're taking a crate motor and a lot of other parts and just CNCing parts to glue onto them. The fact that GMG didn't stoop that low and actually built off a 67' shovel is both epic and old school.
