They look like toys. Not like bikes.
Their not meant to be rode - they are promotional items. I would argue that Jesse's bikes aren't meant to be rode either. Back in the day, a custom West Coast Chopper cost about $100K. You might take that out for a Sunday stroll, but I don't know too many people that would truly ride one, even if they could afford it.

His bikes look like bikes. Like they are made to be ridden.
OCC bikes look like toys. Too much stuff welded and bolted all over them.
They look perty, but I'd be scared to puncture a lung if you lay them down.
Just my opinion.

The word chopper came from guys taking everything off that added weight to the bike. Chopping off every oz......lighter is faster!!! What them jokes do is weld crap all over and call it a chopper....they are a joke.
