Discovery Build Off

azoomm · 12-09-2012, 08:51 PM

OK. I know, I know the builders are usually just a bunch of drama-mongers that build nothing more than small ferris wheels that are too shiny. But, this build off, Jesse has built a bike that I would actually want to own...

I like a lot of the choppers that jesse james builds, just would never want a chopper as my only bike, plus I could never afford one.

I never saw their first build off when it was on but the bike that paul jr built and won with was absolutely hideous. I truly hope the judging makes more sense this time around.

It's definitely art, and I like it for that. But I don't think I'd want to ride it and that sort of defeats the purpose of having a nice motorcycle, doesn't it?

Sure, but that's not what it's about. It was built to be rolling art, not a daily driver... or anytime driver...

Somebody post up a pic of JJ's bike.

More like a rolling caricature or cartoon. I think it looks ridiculous, I'm not a fan.

The public votes tomorrow night. I don't know if the crowd that usually follows this show will like what Jesse built. It's a gamble.

Watch. I'm willing to bet most of you here would vote for Jesse over the others this year.

Paul Jr's bike that won, And is pictured...While not practical...Actually had ALOT of detail go into it. And if you take away the fact that it's pretty much unrideable...It's pretty fucking cool. The wheels alone are awesome in there own right.

They just dont make anything practical.
