Jesse James did build a bike you can ride. However, no where in terms of the build off did it say it had to be a daily driver or be able to get you further than 20 miles. Having said that, PJR built a bike that may not be a bike you could ride in traffic, but the design was very well done indeed. A mixture of the nostalgic lines of a 1920's era HD, with the theme of a WWII era P51 warbird. It was flawless IMO, and the reason PJR won.
I think all the trash talking by Jesse was him covering up for the fact he knew he just built another bike. I think Sr. put it best about Jesse's build. It was something he already has in his garage. The insult went right over Jesse's head, of course.
PSr. didn't build a bike. But PJR had it right when he said it was innovative. If I had to rank each builds I would definitely have PJR at the top. PSr. as 2nd and Jesse last. I'm not saying I dislike Jesse's build, there just was nothing special about it that made it stand out above the rest. It was just another custom chopper.
