If you’re looking to get a handle on how a custom chopper is built, gentlemen (and ladies), start your engines here.
To celebrate Steve Wyrick’s 1,000th show at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, the Teutuls of Orange County Choppers built him a custom chopper for an epic reveal that he would be doing for an episode of the TV reality series American Chopper. But with the challenge of having only a few days to complete the bike and with Paul Jr. about to go on vacation and only being involved in the design and not in the fabrication as usual, Junior offers his suggestions for how to make the design work to the two men who will be building the chopper - Rick, the project manager/lead builder, and Jason. The two men will work on it all day, each day, until it is completed.
The front end is constructed and Rick gives Jason the job of making the rear fender while he constructs the exhaust, deciding to make it twist around the transmission which will make the bike stand out. It’s a lot more work for him, though, because the exhaust will now have several different pieces.
With the shop being shorthanded, Paul Sr. enters the picture and decides to help by putting the seat on the bike. Rick isn’t happy about it, stating that Senior’s method takes twice as long to do things. Senior eventually storms off without completing his task, angered at Rick, as Rick exclaims, “Luckily, Senior has a short attention span.”
