The Orange County Choppers apparently don’t just work on plain old choppers, they even customize snowmobiles and cars!
hough their specialty is bikes, of course, they still can create these with junkyard parts for just $12,000!
Video Games
Since the American Choppers brand was so well received in their first few seasons, they ended up creating two spin-off video games in the process!
The first game was called American Chopper was created by Activision and was released for Xbox, PlayStation 2, and even had a PC version! The second game called American Chopper 2: Full Throttle was created by Creat and was released for Xbox, Gamecube, and PlayStation 2!
Another Set Of Financial Woes
Though everybody pretty much adores the special custom-made bikes that are on the show, they probably would have to think twice after finding out the prices.
The prices of these bikes actually range between $150K – $250K! Crazy! The crew doesn’t really make any of these fancy, high-end choppers anymore, though.
Moving Problems
OCC didn’t use to deal with a ton of financial problems. It was only until they decided to move to a giant, new garage that an influx of financial problems came flushing in.
It also was due to the fact that all of this was happening after the financial crash in 2008, meaning that most people just didn’t care to spend on such expensive, custom choppers.
Comedic Relief
Mikey has always been the fan favorite, most probably of all the comedic relief he provides amid all the drama.
In fact, he was so favored that he was able to represent American Chopper on hit shows like Late Night with Conan O’Brien, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and the Late Show with David Letterman!
