The problem was they had no guidelines. They said build a bike and we will see what the public likes better. JJ had a very nice bike but as mentioned before you can see that at about any rally. I think it's awesome he did the majority of it by hand, but the majority of his bikes look the same. His creativity is limited. I think it's great he feels he can ride that across the country, I wouldn't. It's a good bar hopper. Juniors bike was cool, but he make the majority of his bikes to be show bikes. That's his business. It make it a lot of money why would he deviate from that. I'm sure had there been guidelines like you have to be able to ride to a certain destination or it has to be able to go at least X miles on a tank of gas, you would have seen a different bike. I think it was a cool bike, but I wasn't overly impressed by it. To say he has no fabrication skills is crap. He's built tanks and he's fabricated many parts for his past bikes. However he's not great at it and he understands that, which is why he hires people that are great at it. Again the bike is a show bike to sit in a companies lobby and nothing more. I think SR went with Pooles drawing because he knew he couldn't compete with JJ and Jr. It gave him an excuse/out. I'm not saying it was a pile, because for what it was it was very cool but not a bike. Hell senior even knew it wasn't a bike. Whenever they ran the promos "Hey vote for my bike" he replaced bike with machine. He knew he was going to come in last and that he didn't build a bike. I looked at the voting page but couldn't bring myself to vote for any of them. None of them stood out as a clear winner to me. They all were completely different and awesome in their own right.
