NO!!! Jessie James never did a biker build off except for the bike he did against OCC. The bike your thinking of is from back in 2001 when he did the 1st hole in the down tube bike. #1 it was for a documentory Motorcycle Mania I remember Indian Larry was on that ride and he died in 2004. #1The bike in question was green with blue flames not a orange and black flame. #2 it had a suicide right hand shifter that extended 2'' above the fuel tank. #3 the fuel tank was a wedge shaped design not a smooth up and rolling back tank like this flamed one. #4 the rake on this bike is not even as long as the green bike.#5 the bike he built was a Hard tail and this bike is a soft tail. The only thing the two bikes have in common is they were both built by West Coast Choppers. Remember in there Peak Year Jessie Was not even there. He had managers there running the company while he was doing season 2 of Monster Garage. West Coast Choppers was turning out bikes like mad those years with people throwing money at them for down deposits on bikes. 12-15 bikes a yr were there average with 60% of there income coming from Clothes line sales. Bikes like Shaquille O'Neal sold for $150,000. From 1998-2005 West Coast built a total of 50 bikes and the California Air Reasearch Board fined West Coast $271,250.00 for selling new motorcycles in the state of California with illegal exhaust on all bikes built and sold during that time frame. On EBay right now a guy is selling one of the last rolling chassis with a HD 88cu in motor and West Coast exhaust for $13,000. Kind of how Big dog was right before the factory closed throwing rolling Chasis on ebay to sell what you can as fast as you can for whatever you can get.
Still riding weather here in Iowa!
