Hardley Ableson HA HA



Better become good at motorcycle mechanics if you are going to buy a Harley, granted in later years they have become more reliable, but they still rattle every fuggin bolt and screw loose.

I disagree, Jesse at least makes his own frams and tanks and fenders.



Every bike they have profiled an American Chopper, Off the shelf frame, someone eleses tank. Granted Paul JR. does some neat tacking on off parts.





I would love to see Paul JR. and Jesse James in a room full of tube and sheetmetal and the mechanical parts needed. Lets see who builds the best bike in 2 weeks. Thats painted, wired and running. 15K budget, no outside fabricators, all "bought" parts are identical.



My $$$$ is on Jesse, even if he is a punk

considering the cars which we all choose to drive, i don't think its a big deal to have a "quirky" bike as well. If we didn't like that sort of thing, we wouldn't be here.

I dunno maybe one would disagree, one might want to have a 100% depndable backup, so maybe it's all the more reason TO be concerned about reliablity.
