FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Orange County Choppers (OCC), the world leader in handcrafted American-made motorcycles, and legendary Bubba's Exotic Motorsports, will come together on November 11 to launch OCC's first ever retail line of bikes called the "Senior" Series. The unveiling will take place alongside some of the rarest, most striking automobiles that will be on display at this first annual Exotics on Las Olas event on the renowned Las Olas Boulevard from 11AM to 2PM. A percentage of any bike sales at the event will go to the Wounded Veteran's Relief Fund, a non-profit organization that is the designated charity for Exotics on Las Olas.
"We are so excited to launch the 'Senior' Series in Fort Lauderdale with our friends at Bubba's Exotic Motorsports," said Paul Teutul Sr., the founder of Orange Country Choppers and the star of the hit reality TV series, "American Chopper" which will return for its second season to the Discovery Channel in spring 2019. "The 'Senior' is based on my original bike design that started it all, many years ago. I am so proud to bring back that design with modern features and technology."
Two "Senior" bikes will be unveiled at the event, one a soft tail design and the other a "rigid" or no-rear shock absorber design. Both bikes are "Springers" which refers to the front suspension set up that uses several springs to absorb road imperfections and a seat that uses springs to absorb bumps. The rugged and durable bikes ride on a 16" rear tire and a 21" front tire. The "Senior" will be powered by a modern-day pan head motor, an iconic motor originally designed by Harley-Davidson. It will feature the reputable S&S E series carburetor, an EDL belt-driven primary, and a final chain drive rear sprocket. And if that's not enough, the bike will have a 5-speed transmission for highway cruising tucked inside an "old school" looking 4-speed frame, along with front and rear disc brakes.
"I poured a lot passion and a lifetime of experience into a design that combines old school looks with modern-day reliability," said Teutul Sr. "I think the 'Senior' is the crowning achievement of my career."
Attendees of the Exotics on Las Olas event will have the first opportunity to purchase what is likely to be a rare and highly sought after bike.
Like all OCC bikes, the "Senior" will be hand-crafted with superior quality and in limited supply, with only about 100 bikes available for sale in the first year of production.
For Floridians interested in buying a "Senior," Bubba's Exotic Motorsports of Palm Beach Gardens will be an OCC partner and a local hub for sales and distribution.
"We are so proud to be working with our old friend Paul Teutul Sr. on the launch of the 'Senior,'" said Tom, co-owner of Bubba's Exotic Motorsports. "Bubba and I are looking forward to helping introduce the 'Senior' to Florida's bike enthusiasts as well as people who want to own a piece of what will be American motorcycle history."
