Cast Members of American Chopper & Where They Are Now

Jr was the heart and soul of Sr’s business. Jealousy of a son by a father is a horrible thing.

Rick lives down the road from me. Had met him in town a few times here and there. Then was able to help him get the Pocono Harley shop up and running. Has to been one of the most down to earth people I’ve dealt with. All the best to Rick and his family.

Back in the day I loved to watch this show with my family. I’m not even American but it was still super popular all around the globe. Being like 12 years or so living in Germany and seeing “that last fight” kinda broke my heart after years of watching them and loving the bikes. I’ve always noticed the fights but it was hard for me to understand that they were pretty serious. I remember them having a closet full of new doors in case someone smashed another in… like usual. It had something comedic so I thought it was just like a side quest for entertainment purposes of the show. Sadly they had serious issues

I remember episodes where paulie and vinnie would be working on a bike for a deadline and sr would literally demand they stop working and clean the shop THEN spent an hour arguing with Paulie about being behind schedule on the project. He was legit the textbook example of a micromanaging boss who had too much free time so he went around barking over whatever he could

I watched nearly every episode as a kid, it was my fav show. Senor had a good heart at the beginning he once said that he shouldn't even have the show bc of his alcohol addiction and that's a gift to have Mikey and Jr with him every day. But when they got bigger money got to his head and he stopped to appreciate his sons and just did not care about the relationship, only cared about money.

I’ve talked to Junior a couple times. He considered buying my original 1912 Indian racer but passed on it. He has an exquisite taste for collecting original condition, original paint antique motorcycles. He’s also got some really incredible original motorcycle related signs and memorabilia too. Cool guy 👍

Definitely one of the few shows I never forgot about and still miss watching.

It’s a miracle Sr. is still alive after years of steroid and alcohol use and behaving like a raging maniac 24/7 stressing his cardiovascular system.

Grew up watching the show... I can remember Orange County Chopper sweats, caps, and shirts everywhere at the full throttle saloon. 😁

So many life analogies in this video. I love it and that the ones who stayed focus on their passion truly succeeded.

I watched every show and it went from passion for bikes to passion for money for Sr and junior had a passion for creativity and still does and that’s why they both are where they are today!

My father and I loved to watch this show together. We finally visited the shop in New York in 2012 and saw some of the bikes in person.

Vinnie and Rick were my favourites. They were the ones that did the actual work .

I always felt sorry for Rick. Such a nice guy, just trying to do his job and do it well. The guy deserved better than being surrounded by a very disfunctional family.

Paul Sr. always seemed to have a wallet that was way bigger than his bank account. He's just like so many people who get a few bucks and then blow it on stupid stuff. Junior seemed to be always super stressed. Always late to work and always behind the deadline but, he seems to be doing much better since he broke from his dad and is making his own way - good for him! The rest of the cast from Vinny on down all seemed like really nice guys who ducked alot and did their best to deal with the very toxic atmosphere created by Paul Sr. I wish them all well..

Man do i miss the times when this show was airing on TV, never missed an episode. Simpler times for sure!

I watched nearly every episode as a kid, it was my fav show.

I use to see these guys all the time. I was just sitting outside the shop last week. It’s closed down but still there.

Thank you
