    Another trike on T.V.

    I was watching OCC (orange county choppers) last night, i was the web bike episode and at the very end of the show when Paulie was taking the bike out of the shop you can see a glimpse of a trike. its a honda with a grey seat. you can only see it for a sec. It makes me wonder, are they going to build/rebuild a trike???

    I've seen a trike on "Build or Bust" on Speed channel... they show a guy wheelie'in off on it in the credits/intro.
    Definitely a custom build, not a Honda job!

    I was watching DirtRider TV (I think thats the name of it) on the outdoor channel, and they were showing about how they spent a week in NZ riding. And when they were at the bike shop there was a guy on a Yami hard tail trike riding around doing wheelies and stuff. No helmet though heh, suprised they put that on the air.

    I watched a movie on starz yesterday called Gangland that featured an early model 250R. It was pretty cool the engine was painted red. They showed it a lot during the first 30 minutes or so. Too bad it belonged to the bad guys, which I guess is the reason he rolled it on the side...

    That trike is awesome.(the one in the link)
    I think I saw a different episode of American Chopper with the same honda trike in the background. I'm sure a few of the employee's at OCC are into atv's and bring them to work to work on and toy around.I've also seen a few dirtbikes and snowmobiles on that show in the background.Heck, If I worked there you'd see my tri-z's layin around for sure,lol. I used to watch Justin Barnes JB GRAFFIX(painter for OCC) race mx at the local tracks.He was/is fast.I know Cody rips it up too.
