American Chopper (aka Jet Bike)
In this pilot episode, the Teutuls race to build their Jet Bike — since featured on the cover of American Iron Magazine — in time for Laconia Bike Week. Paul Jr. checks out the flight deck of the USS Intrepid for aerodynamic inspiration, then steals a few hours of relaxation on the golf course before heading back to the garage. But Paul Sr. isn't too thrilled with his son's field trip and worries that all of the bike's custom nuances — the miniature cockpit, handmade missiles, reinforced wheelie bar — will ground the project before it ever gets going.

American Chopper II (aka Biketoberfest)
The OCC crew finds itself under the gun with Daytona's Biketoberfest looming around the bend. This legendary biker bash is great exposure for the shop, so showing something spectacular is imperative. Unfortunately, with only seven days to design, build and test their bike, the guys have their work cut out for them. Paul Sr. lets Paul Jr. and Cody — a talented, eager-to-learn, teenage shop mechanic — handle the entire project. The resulting classic design and eye-catching paint job make for a bike that's all chopper ... and all Cody. But when Paul Jr. schedules extra time for a fully chromed frame — a first for OCC — Biketoberfest's deadline suddenly approaches. Will the young guns finish on time?
