Their bikes look slicker than the OCC bikes i've seen but people like to buy names so who knows, i think in todays econocmy these bikes are going to be a luxury many can't afford and a buisness like this is a big risk, best wishes for them they were always my favorites.

You're not kidding about the risk! Right now isn't the time to be building high end choppers and hoping to sell them to the masses. I wish them well, but I suspect skilled guys like them will land on their feet in any event.

I never thought Vinny got the credit he deserved on the show, I remember one bike that he had a lot on input in but got no credit for, he didn't even get on stage and it looked like it hurt him. maybe they can make it work in todays economy.

I see these guys from time to time. Nobody really pays any mind to them. Mickey hangs out @ this place called Union house in my village and he's the only fat ape to cruise around town on a scooter.

I agree Vinnie never got the credit he should have but all he did was ***** about Jr. and always having him and Rick do alot of the work.Now he is going to work for Jr. and I think Jr.'s head is as big as ever and Vinnie will regret the move,he should just put all his attention to his business so he can be a success unless he is failing as an owner...Hope he does well..
