I'll admit, I used to watch American Chopper back in the day. It was the early days of reality TV and it was about motorcycles, which I love. Looking back, I'm not proud of it. The show was a mess, as was Orange County Choppers.
It was all about manufactured drama and not enough about building good bikes. And seriously, they did not make good bikes. Most of the time, the bikes didn't even run. They were display-only bikes for big clients who didn't care whatsoever whether they could be ridden or not.
