He owns 20% -25% of the company. I don't think his working salary is what really pays his lifestyle.

I'm asking myself why the hell I care, but I looked it up anyway and found this.

Their other fights are obviously just stunts, but it's hard to feign that kind of frustration and anger, imo.

That looks real, atleast that's what it looks like when I used to fight with my brother.

Now that I see it unedited, maybe it wasn't so rehearsed. :laugh:

Rehearsed, real, I'm not sure. This one looked to be far more serious than any I'd seen before.

I don't think the two of them can work together. Sr., has had problems with drug and alcohol abuse in the past. I don't think he's all there on a social level. Business wise, I'd say he's got a good head on his shoulders. He's done very well.

Junior is one of those people for whom rules are meant to be broken. He's the most creative of the lot. He's key to the business, IMO. The two of them are going to butt heads until one or the other leaves this earth. They are both too much alike and not enough alike.

If you've seen the previews and some commercials, it's apparent they've reached some kind of agreement. It's not going to last, but this is the way they interact with each other.

These are my observations based on what they choose for us to see. Do any of my thoughts mesh with reality? Who knows?

Junior is a big contributor to the business, with Mike, you'd do better to throw money down a hole in the ground.

So they lost that other guy a year or so ago and now Jr and Sr are on the rocks...

Makes for some good TV. Jr's tantrum was a little...girly, no? For a big guy, at least. Punch something or pick something to throw that's not the size of a shoe box or made of plastic :p

Yawn.

Why does anyone even care about the televised disputes on a reality show? He's part of a family business, he's not going to be fired.

No crap. This was episode 1 of this season. You couldn't watch Discovery without seeing a billion commercial for it. Was good TV!

Even though most of the drama is for the camera, the Tuttles are some serious whack jobs. I can't believe if you had the kind of cash they ask for one of their rides that you'd trust them to build it after seeing ONE of the shows. If you want a bike built by a whack job at least go with one you know will get it done on time like Jesse James.

if youre looking for a bike with notoriety, id prefer a jesse james design for sure, but they surely have the same level of notoriety with their builds. and really, if i was going to pay that kind of cash for a custom build, im not gonna be on a schedule at all. if its not done, take another few days to avoid cutting some corners.

I hate choppers.

If you want an american motorbike, buy a Buell.

If you want a large spangly luxury vehicle, go buy a Cadillac.
These days, it's probably cheaper anyway.

OTOH, why wouldn't you hold them to a deadline they agreed to? I want it done right but, I also want it done on time.

I haven't watched that show in years but when I did, it seemed JR was the one doing all the work. I have to agree with him when he says, "at the end of the day, what needs to get done gets done" I damn sure wouldn't want to have to punch a clock for a company I'm part owner of and certainly not when I'm getting shit done.

WTF does the dad do besides bitch at his son for ratings? Shit, firing the son just made the dad's job obsolete. Way to go dad.

And then there's that.. I wish my grandmother would've "fired" me from her store.
