8. HELL yeah, and he's probably a republican too. But he can BUILD
choppers like no one else.

Sometimes you have to appreciate the artistry and not the artist.

9. His scooters might be "art"
but they are not functioning motorcycles.

10. Uh...really? Every one is ridden before delivery.
They may not be PRACTICAL, but they do function as motorcycles.

for more than an hour.

12. Like I said...maybe not practical...
I think they're a waste of money myself, but I appreciate the craftsmanship and imagination it takes to build one.

16. Trail bikes and road rockets they aren't, that's for sure. They're about
appreciating the art, the motor, and looking good on a hot looking bike.

The engines area all Harley, american-made. Evey bit of those bikes are 100% all American. Gotta love that a little.

Even thought it was military themed, I thought the Comanche bike was astounding. The spider bike is ok, but a biker theme I've never cared for, for the prison/racial connotations.

17. I can think of few things MORE overrated than Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
And I can't help but think "low-rent" when I think "Harley". Also, if I had a bike (I don't), I'd have it to RIDE, not to impress people...

If I were buying a bike, cost no object, it would be something like a Vincent Black Shadow or a Brough-Superior...both of which are to a Harley as a 427 AC Cobra is to a Mustang GT.

15. Oh, Boy! maybe Jay will get in the way when Old Paul goes off...
...on Young Paul...

Wish I had too damn much money. By the time he finished with *MY* scoot, Poppa Smurf'd think he was a fuckin' Prospect again....

I really dislike that blowhard, I don't give a rat's ass HOW 'talented" he is.

19. Are you sure this isn't a repeat?
They were on Leno a few months ago with the Balck Widow and Commanche Bike. Could tonight just be repeat of that show?

21. A Meeting Of The Assholes
Paul Sr. and Jay Leno could flip a coin to see who's the biggest asshole, and the coin will stand on edge.
