Staffel 3

Da die Orange County Choppers zur Zeit nicht ganz so viel zu tun haben, kommt Paul Jr. auf die Idee, mal wieder ein Bike für sich zu bauen. Nach dem Spidermanbike und der Black Widow soll es das dritte Spinnenbike werden, welches natürlich die anderen beiden Bikes übertreffen sollte. Bisher hatte man bei OCC die Rahmen immer ausser Haus bauen lassen, was sich aber jetzt ändern sollte. Um in Zukunft auch eigene Rahmen bauen zu können, bekam man von Racing Innovation die nötigen Werkzeuge und das nötige Wissen wurde der OCC Crew auch beigebracht. Nachdem das 3D Design mit Jason Pohl besprochen war, ging es dann an die Spinnennetzte und sogar Mikey half zwischendurch mit.

Sowohl der Benzintank als auch der Öltank sollten die Netzoptik bekommen, so daß man von oben durch den Tank auf den Motor sehen konnte. Der eigentliche Tank wurde dann von Rick in den Heckfender integriert, auch wenn er nur ca. 3 Liter Fassungsvermögen hat. Das ist Paulie egal, es sollte schließlich in der Hauptsache ein Showbike werden. Um etwas Abstand von der Arbeit zu bekommen und weil OCC neben dem Webbike auch noch das Jetbike baute, haben Rick und Vinnie bei der Airforce einen Crashkurs in Sachen fliegen bekommen. Sie wurden auf Herz und Nieren getestet, um zum Abschluss in einer F16 mitfliegen zu dürfen. Glücklicherweise haben es beide gut überstanden und meinten, daß es absolut genial gewesen sei. Zurück bei OCC ging es dann an die Fertigstellung des Webbikes. Nach einigen Schwierigkeiten beim Starten des Bikes wurde es dann schlussendlich in Daytona bei der AMI (American Motorcycle Institution) vorgestellt.

Die Firma Caterpillar beauftragt OCC mit dem Bau eines Themenbikes, dem Catbike. Nachdem die OCC Crew einen rundgang durch die Caterpillar Firma gemacht hatte, durften die drei Teutuls sich noch an den Catmaschinen austoben. Zurück in der Werkstatt, ging es dann an das Design........
