Aug 13 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The reality television show ‘American Choppers’ has followed the journey of Paul Teutul Senior, Paul Teutul Junior, and Mikey Teutul, along with many employees and family members as they went from a small time motorcycle shop to a booming business, fueled by their extreme talent in designing bikes, as well as their television fame, along with a huge dose of family feuding.

The feuding, which has been ongoing between Senior and Junior pretty much since the show began, escalated last season when Junior was fired from his own father’s business, Orange County Choppers, which Junior owns a chunk of. This led to a brand new spin-off of the show, ‘American Chopper:Senior vs Junior’, with Paul Junior opening his own business, and going into direct competition with his dad. Senior is stated to be suing Junior for his share of ‘Orange County Choppers’. Mikey, as usual, is trying to remain silent.

The kids are apparently no longer speaking to their father, and Vinnie, a well known employee who has been with the show mostly from the beginning, has been hired by Junior to help him design choppers in the new shop owned by the son, a company called ‘Paul Jr Designs’. This company has it’s own Facebook page, where fans of Paul Jr can show their support, and the phone number and address of the business is on the page for those who wish to contact the shop for a motorcycle.

The competition and family drama is sure to make for a wild new season. It will be very interesting to see what designs Paul Junior will put out there now that he is out from under his father’s influence. With both of these men being brilliant designers, it is very likely that many “killer bikes” will be created from this split, and battle to be the best.
