Super Sneak Peek Behind the Scenes of Jesse’s Next Big Project
Ok, we can’t show you a lot, or even tell you a lot. Not yet at least. But we can say there’s something in the works at WCC. It involves some hammering, some welding, a film crew, and little bit of cussing, and it will be ready for your viewing pleasure in the not too distant future. Sure, you’ve seen Jesse in Motorcycle Mania, Monster Garage, Iraq Confidential, and Jesse James is a Dead Man, but this is something totally different.
So, what can we tell you about? One hint: he was in Isreal for a couple weeks picking up some new skills, and since he’s been back, he’s been in his shop working away, only to come up for air, a Cisco Burger, and to crack the whip on the worker bees around WCC. So after he’s back a few weeks, a flatbed rolls up to the shop, loaded with a massive, God-knows-how-heavy hunk of machinery. It took a special industrial forklift to get the two-piece contraption to his work area. Once that thing was up and running, we noticed film crews showing up at the shop, started hearing some LOUD strange noises, so we couldn’t take it… we snuck into his shop and snapped this production still to give you a peek at the action.
Stay tuned here. you’ll be the first to find out what all the hub bub is about!
It’s been in our store for months but if you’re not in LBC then you can still have your very own.

WCC KICKS ASS IN EUROPE TOO…
Remy Bonjasky is one of the most popular fighters in the K-1 heavyweight (kickboxing) championship. Ever. For those who aren’t up on the sport, the K-1 organization is Japanese, and hosts the most popular Kickboxing series in the world, comparable with the UFC for MMA. Fight nights are huge! Audiences pack the arenas, typically between 20.000 to 70.000 people show up to watch these guys beat the living sh*t out of each other. The fights are broadcasted in 130 countries. In Europe and Japan, this is currently the most popular fighting championship where there’s more history with kickboxing. At least more than wrestling or MMA.
Remy is from the Netherlands and has taken the K-1 world championship title 3 times. Remy’s nickname is the Flying Gentleman, because he flies to the chin of his competitor with his knee and tries to knock him out. If you check out his highlights on Youtube, you’ll see he jumps a lot. It’s his own patented move. He’s also known for being very good on defense, and he goes for it and knocks his opponents out with his knee or a high kick to the head.
Outside the ring, he’s an easygoing guy. But when the bell sounds, he’s an aggressive competitor. His next fight will be on April the 3rd in Yokohama in Japan, his opponent will be announced shortly.
West Coast Choppers proud to back Remy and when he enters the ring wearing the Iron Cross, we know he’ll do us proud!

For those of you who have been at the edge of their seats for this posting…
We asked you guys to submit some art. And here are the results…
Travis Roma kicked ass with his airbrushing skills so we have to give him first place. (Mr). Lusting came in second with the Gouache WCC Pirate. And we couldn’t resist Justin’s Dia de los Muertos Lady & Skull. Some of these were too good not to post so we added a few more…
5 am isn’t our usual hours of operation but we opened early today.
Allie Mac Kay from KTLA was here this morning to meet the crew, check out the bike shop, test out the eats at Cisco Burger and see how little Cinny is doing. If you missed it on the news this morning go check out their website for the replay.
