  • v-force flop

  • So now they work for Paul Jr full time??? With 16 hours at PJD how can they keep V-Force open?

  • Location?

  • Best of luck guys hope it goes well for you. All the way from New Zealand

  • The Shop is amazing guys!!! Very nice!!!

    sAVE ME A DOUGHNUT!

    

  • why are there ads for OCC on the Vforce site. I saw PJD ads too. Are they funded by them or something?

  • Vin you're a really great mechanic and Cody, you've got a lot going for you. Hope that everything works out for you guys at PJD.

  • Scooters are fine Vinnie, Its a helluva lot cooler than a Coleman BBQ or a dog park. (Sorry Jr. but no compete clause or not that was pretty lame). Good luck Vinnie in what ever you do.

  • What's going in with V-Force now that Vinnie is at PJD?

  • @masterknaster

    I think that v force customs is broke, because why else is vinnie working at teutle junior's new shop?

    It's because cody and vinnie made a mistake by thinking what occ did in 20 years, they can do inmedeatly, by renting or buying that brandnew shop that looks like a polished ballroom, because that shop must cost alot of money every month, and there are 2 households to feed, and you can't pay al those bills with only selling a few bikes that you can count on 2 hands until now

  • @masterknaster the two may have merged

  • @maskaryan Thx for the info

  • Best of luck guys! Glad to see you got away from all the OCC Drama.

  • good luck guys.hope you get big as occ

  • nice. idk if this ever went though or not. but vinnie said in one of the older occ episodes he has had way more fun on a scooter then he ever has on a chopper.

  • Little Caesers!!!!! YUMM

  • Best part is the fall!!! Damn this is boring....

  • Cody's should hire a camera man, if he want's to talk for the first time.

  • Does anybody know what is going to happen to v force customs are vinnnie and cody just going to work with jr and close this shop?

  • Vinnie & Cody you are the working men hero. Good luck guys.

  • i hope he sticks with his own shop cause sr and jr dont do shit. there all show

  • I hope V Force Customs sticks around. It's hard to find out what they've been doing recently

  • just wondering is vinnie with Paul Jr designs or is he with v force. i'm kinda confused i love the v force bikes and think Cody and Vin should stick together and get rid of Sr and Jr

  • @NotoriousTwig13 I think he's working with both, maybe letting Cody take over for a bit while he works with Jr.

  • just wondering is vinnie with Paul Jr designs or is he with v force. i'm kinda confused i love the v force bikes and think Cody and Vin should stick together and get rid of Sr and Jr

  • codys a mute retard and vinnies a big pussy

  • Nice shop guys. 

  • YAHTZEEEEE

  • vince here with the slap chop

  • It's interesting hearing them talk about the V-Force 1; I just saw the video of them taking it off the truck, completed.

  • Vinnie and Cody are going to work for Paul Jr Designs for the show, while still maintaining V-Force Customs. He must have good workers in order to do that.

  • Vin, Code, you earned it.

  • Is that a bodybuilding com hat I see on Vinnie? Wonder if he visits the forums there.

  • these guys are too mind numbingly boring to get a tv deal

  • @kayotic81 lol! yeah i think your right! i heard that vinnie was going to work for paul jr at his new bike shop that is going to compete with his father i think the show starts next month or something senior vs junior i think its called

  • @kayotic81 Well it depends on how you look at it, you would definitely get a lot more bike buildings and a lot less drama. V-Force would make a good show if you want to see how they build bikes and do what they do, if you want a soap opera stick with OCC.

  • good luck fellas hope you stick it to occ

  • is there a new channel with more updates or somewhere else to watch you guys?

  • the american chopper tv show isnt the same without vinnie and cody.

  • Gt bree nerds commentn on ds lol jke gd dat vinny n cody left shuld join jr and do sum sik shw n c wat sr missn out on. Lol.

  • So when Cody left did he get that bike that Paul Sr "gave" him?

  • Vinnie leaving OCC was the beginning of the end of American Chopper. As the show shifted away from Vinnie, Cody and later Jr. and Mikey, I totally missed the reasons I originally watched. May V Force Customs live long and prosper!

  • pls dont take paul jr. back, cant stand that guy

    wish the best luck to you for the future

  • I missed yous 2 guys on american chopper. i didnt have a clue that yous joined together. all the best lads. 2 great characturs on occ. Hope all goes well.

  • I bet vinnie and cody had been stockpiling to get the hell outta occ. Glad to find out as well where yall have been. We need a show when u guys get it going good.

  • seems to me like pauly jr. is really trying to get his ow show on tlc

  • they have throttlejunkies

  • wow, I hope you guys make it, ground up! good stuff!

  • I had no idea OCC was making the moneu they were and Vin is the one that used to put in most of the work. Vin,thanks for emailing me back. When I learn how to ride I'll look you guys up! I used to crash four wheelers on the plains of Montana. LOL. Good luck and take care.

  • My Main Man Vinnie! So great to have finally found out where you disppeared to and what you are up to these days...

    Little Cody sounds like he's finally hit puberty... Heheheh thought he was Senior's litle bitch. Glad all is well, hope the family's doing well.

    Ya think "Fat Boy" is really sober Now?!? I caught his comedy act, sheesh...

    calloimg his dad a scum bag... Now that's a class act...

    Be good and be safe Vinnie! Take care

  • Congrats guys. Your level heads and good skills will take you far.

  • man for vinnie owning his own shop he deserves it. was allways busting his butt and giving a 110% on the bike builds and cody working under vinnie is really lucky. best of luck and much blessing on there future watch out occ think there falling apart

  • I used to watch American Chopper all the time. I recently started watching it again. I cant stand the way Jason Pohl and that one guy are always bashing Paulie and his business Paul Jr Designs. For christ's sake, last I saw they dont own their own business, and the one guy is a fucking mechanic. So I'd like to see Jr join V Force Customs, even just doing consulting for them. It would be great!

  • @t80tank20 I cant remember why vinnie left occ, are vinnie and jr even still friends after vinnie left?

  • @HDjason, Vinnnie left OCC because he didnt think there was any way for him to advance in the company. As far as I know they're still friends, but I'm not sure.

  • I hope you guy's have great success. It would be great of Paul Jr. and Michael could join the team at V Force Customs. It would also be cool they pulled Jason Pohl over.

  • Happy New Year V-Force Customs! Glad to see you guys Together and Doin what you Doin.

    peace!

  • I was able to visit OCC and V FORCE, i just want to say that Vinnie and Cody were really dow earth guys, we were able to take pics and they showed me the shop, not so lucky at OCC where we were told they are not allowed to take pics, i think they forgot that the "real stars" in the show are not there anymore !!!.....Hey TLC we want the V FORCE SHOW !!!!!!!!

  • Vinnie made Cody a business partner? I thought he hated Cody.

  • so whats the score now? is owt happening? i need to know .

  • OCC etc have lent millions to build there new building etc , and people are nt buying bikes . Guess what there gone , broke . Someone will buy them out or they'll get backers/suckers to invest and prey things turn around . But things are gonna be real bad for 5 years or more .

  • They shouldnt have built such an elaborate building. They expanded too much and too quickly. As with all small businesses I want them to succede, but they're in for rough times.

  • good luck vinie & cody with your new shop hats of to you guys, always welcome in ontario canada.

  • Occ is not the best company for building custom bikes they may be the most popular but certainly does not mean they are the best in the business

  • I love vinnie but his bikes look crap. I hope him and Paulie get something going together now that junior has 'quit' occ.

  • not really, everything paul jr made got less and less dissimilar from the next.

    it got to the point where all the bikes started looking technically the same, excluding the various cheesy gimmick add-ons.

  • i hope they have a show the v force show

  • Sp did coby quit OCC also ?

  • Did this place get enough work to stay afloat?

    8 months and no new vids.

  • To Mr. DiMartino and Mr. Connelly,

    You made the last show. You made it. Your builds, as most of them were, are truly works of art. I can't wait to see more of what you are producing...television and bikes and cars???

    J. B. A. AKA

  • Good luck Vinnie & Cody, not that you need it!

    Now you can build real bikes, not those ugly corporate pieces of shit that OCC build!!!!!!

    Hope to see you guys on Biker Build Off one day.

  • Word, choppers at OCC were getting cheesier,

  • Does anyone really have a clue as to why vinnie left...!

    Listening to the Brady bunch argue day after day i think.. And finantually .. whats ur ideas..! e-mail me & let me know . cheers all. take care vinnie & cody

  • good luck guys, happy days.. we all know vinnie it was u that built the occ bikes & while Snr, Jnr & muppett mike took all the credit.. Respect, Rickie ( Scotland )

  • All the Best Vin and Cody, Miss watchin you guys on OCC. Hope the future is bright for you both.

  • Good luck guys!

  • good luck boys hope it all works out

  • 3:45 what's the deal with those little scoots? or is the one in the middle massive?

    did they build them?

  • Good luck Vinnie & Cody! It must be very exciting for you guys and I'm sure that you have made the right decision.

    Steve from Australia

  • good luck guys. hope you guys are doing well

  • To much burgers ?. Man he got fat.. =)

  • hey i need a job????anything will do.

  • I hope to you make it,boys. But its a hard business. People don't have the money for such luxury toys anymore and there are so much good bikebuilders nowadays over the world. You need to be a artist and a engineer.

  • i hope u guys make it big maybe one day i will bye a bike you to together are good workers and have u got anything built yet or any progress??

  • It's amazing how people take this stuff so personally. No one would even care had they not been on TV. Like siding with either side will get you somewhere in life. Good luck to you both. Hopefully you won't put refridgerators or microwaves on your bikes LOL.

  • Dont hate the player hate the game!!!

  • r u guys gonna do ur own show?

  • I love how all you people post comments bashing the Teutuls to try and curry favor with Vinnie and Cody. If it wasn't for the Teutuls and the "Orange County Chopper" show, they wouldn't have been able to open V-Force Customs. Do you really think, as unknowns, they would have been able to get investors to finance their new business? Also, I remember Vinnie bashing Cody alot on "OCC" for using his tools without permission, not having his act together, etc. Now they are partners and best buds?

  • This is the smartest thing you guys could have done!! Can't wait to see your bikes!!!!!

  • hey vin dude your awesome let me just say that do you every talk to paul jr anymore?

  • What's up vin..Good luck iam glad you left occ they suck know..Peace out fastjimmy71!!!

  • hey guys good luck to you from blackjack choppers in miami

  • hey vin & cody, good luck to you both,

    i spoke to you guys at the v-twin expo in 2008 , i was a bike builder from down under australia, good to see you guys are rocking it.

  • I think paul jr should stop taking his dads bullshit !!!!! and go work with V force ......

  • I didnt knew you guys split up from occ cause they dont air the show anymore in india,vin was the only person behind the theme bikes,just never got the appreciation for that and cody cannot forget your project bike!!!!good luck too yur guys!!hey and is rick wid you guys??

  • Comment removed

  • Best of luck to you guys,occ is going to be fuc**d up!!!

  • My wife and i went to France last year, she drank so much pernod i had to pay duty on her to get her through customs.

  • paul senior will die of a major heart attack and his new wife (gold digging bimbo) will make a fortune selling it. sad.

  • Boston will be rooting for you !!

  • Good luck getting a reply . I want a custom sprocket and i still can't get ahold of them.

  • I always wondered what happened to you guys... now i know. Good luck to both of you, hope you do well :)

  • Hey Vince! Good luck to you and Cody! When are you gonna have Ricker on your team, it'd be nice to see him workin' with you and Code.

  • vin u rock

  • Good Luck Vin and Cody i watched you guys on American Chopper and you's was awesome one request i have i no u wudnt take it up but i'll say it anyway bring Rick on board.

  • Vin, do you do any custom work on HD's? I'm looking to re-work the front end of my HD Dyna Street Bob. .... Not looking to spent a mint but looking nonetheless. ....

  • I must have blinked and you were both gone from the show! Great to see you doing well. More power to you, guys!

  • I saw Vinnie and Kody at the show in Baltimore and both were very kind and gracious and even posed for a photo with wife and dauhter. You guys are great, very best wishes

  • Good luck guys.Glad to see you like all kinds of bikes.Got a v-max myself .Wish you could customize it for me.

  • best of luck guys!

    greatings from dragon customs up here in cold canada.

  • wish you guys all the luck of the world!!!!

    Vin you are the best!!

    greetz of belgium

  • muito bom mesmo

    estava curioso para saber como era a V Force

    sou fã de vcs

  • You guys are cody And vinie From OCC right, you guys findlay cam to your sences and quit. are you guys still make Choppers or what.

  • wow, awesome!! I just found this shit out. Good luck to you both!! You guys are awesome, Rick working with ya yet??

  • Wish you guys the best in your new venture. Keep us updated.

  • Guys, I think we all know why you left, your gonna do great peace out from the UK.

    Matt

  • Good luck guys, business is business and you can't beat working for yourself. I hope you don't have too much bad thoughts of OCC etc. As the show got bigger it became about the celebrity aspect. You could tell Vin didn't think it was the greatest job in the world as some fans might think but I'm sure the good times were all real!

  • good luck for your new company !!! I like it your job very much !!!

  • Having seen most of Occ on discovery and being a fan for many years ive recently been getting a bit fed up with it, mainly due to some of the mickey mouse designs, i mean the ram bike was terrible and i think they a running out of idea's.

    Its great to see 2 of the best from OCC take that big step into the world and i wish both Vinnie and Cody the best for future, hopefully it wont be too long before we see you on tv again, and have a great xmas!

  • ps mickey should go and work for you guys..lol

  • you could always see there was not really a click between paul sr and vin,also not being able to grow in the business eventually made vin decide 2 quit at occ. also between paul jr and him things didn't go that well due to jr coming late all the time and being a bit lazy,making vin & ricky do most of the work. i guess mickey was the only teutel to wich vinnie build a genuine friendship. mickey wasn't really a working force,more a social entertainer and true friend.

    tnx 4 the great shows

  • good luck with the new adventure guys!!! looking forward to seeing you on t.v. soon :) all the best from glasgow scotland

  • GOOD LUCK!!! the place looks great!

  • hey guys im gareth ..emailing from the wales in the united knigdom.. hope everything goes great and good luck

  • Hi guys. My name is Sinakto Pelep. I know, weird name huh? I am from a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean called Pohnpei. I know that you have never heard of this place, but i assure you it exists. I am a huge fan of yours. Vin, you were the life of that show. I saw how you always worked hard and yet seemed so insignificant when time came to debut the bikes at events or other venues. You deserve atleast 1/3 of that company man.

  • idiots left OCC i wish paul would kick cody's ass or should just i he gave him a bike + vinnie always said cody is a worm and a jerk and he dosnt count as a member he dosnt do anyting now he works with him so stupid FAIL!

  • Best of luck & life !!

    Hope to see you guys soon !!

  • Good Luck Vinney & Cody....... You guys were our favorites on the OCC show! Don't watch it no more! Can't wait to see you guys on tv!

  • occ got greedy......and with 1 person takin all the credit(paul jr)....i cant blame u 4 leaving....workin with sr must have been a nightmare...anyways....goodluc­k wit the new shop

  • all the best

  • I hate the fact that Vinnie left.. I mean, Vinnie and Mikey were a real double act at OCC. He probably was the most talented worker at OCC, he did almost everything on the bikes he worked on.. But hope he has big success with his new company =)

  • im an avid fan of OCC specially u vinnie and Rick. i even asked my dad to buy me th original DVD! hes in the US, wer from the Philippines. it really is sad seing u walk out in OCC vin. anyways... wow! this is a first! i just watched the video wer u (vinnie) left. never thought u would create ur own shop. i really do hope that this will prosper bec i really like u Vin (not a gay thing). and also, u should have drag Rick with u not cody! hehehe.. good luck!

  • good luck lads hope it works for you if you get tv right i'll be watching thats for sure.

  • I dont know if any of you are in Australia although the last episode i watch of occ was when vin left... Did cody leave?? for the video i guessed they started there own bussiness... From the occ program they both look at sond like good people so good luck to them.

  • We must be, here in Amsterdam, a bit outdated with occ show. On yesterday show I notice You guys are not there. I know, it was a tension Vin-P Jr. when they get money overloaded, and give all exposure on 3 Teutels. Vin was forced to leave. Guys in OCC made a big mistake, letting you go. Magic in the OCC was between P Jr&Vin and Rick in the background. Senior is a good lad, and all his shouting come from being childish, not that he is a bad person.

    Too much money will make him bad, pity.

  • Yesterday, I was guessing to my wife, you must be opening your own company.. I went on google and find you guys, the best news I get lately from that nature.

    Was sad seeing jr. want to put regular handle bars on last bike, Rick tell him, he better build one. Later, Paul Jr. need to make egzost. Rick struggle with machine for bending pipes, make them from too fat pipes and come ugly simple.

  • I'd like to wish you Two guy's all the very best for the future,now you guy's can build the kind of bikes that you enjoy making.Take care and good luck......Brian,Scotland.

  • there's no doubt.....vinnie and cody will do awesome....great things happen to great people.......kiki.

  • Nice shop, hope their business floruishes and give them the success they deserve. I hope also that they install an elevator from their inventory room to the ground floor, would be very tiresome to carry all those parts down the stairs, ha, ha...Nice tour.

  • when did cody leave occ then? i swear we are so behind in the uk

  • i wish u the best of luck guys!

  • Good luck!

  • Vinnie

    You are the best...glad you finally got fed up with Sr's BS...good luck in your new business...

  • who replaced vinnie

  • ROMANIA va apreziaza foarte mult...cand o sa va vedem la TV??

  • dat fiind faptul ca locuim in romania ,o sa-i vedem la tv peste vreo 3 ani  :P

  • All the best from Romania! Good luck guys! Hope you ca team-up with Rick again!

  • Good work Vin and Cody, I am glad to see you to as a team and i hope that Rick joins you.

  • I had this dream and in it was this bike with two rear wheels in tandem.Good luck to ya's.

  • vinnie you are the best man!!! occ made sooo stupid move letting you go!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!

  • commitment to friends are strong but life goes on create something you enjoy and sell it to the world.ride to live live to ride.when does rik petko start? nz harley riders

  • Good luck guys. Must be a breath of fresh air working in peace with no idiotic yelling or big egos. Forget the dumb tv show, just build us some great bikes. I have no doubt you will. I look forward to seeing V-Force go up against Orange County Dysfunctional at a build off. They'll never know what hit them.

  • Brilliant Guys Best of luck from Australia

    Best move you could have made ,I'm a sub scriber so i cant wait for more instalments

  • good luck vinne and cody hope it all goes to plan. occ rules

  • They both made the right decision to quit their jobs, they had, to start their own company! They made good work at OCC and I think they will build a successfully shop and of course they will earn a lot more money with their own shop! That definitely a step forward! GL Guys

  • good luck from Englnd guys, i wanna work for you and build some sick bikes!

  • You guys will be the next Chip Foose. He left Boyd Coddington to start his own business and look at him now !!

    I wish Vin and Cod the same success !!

  • Yo chill, we don't need no hatters here.

  • Comment removed
