Mikey's Bike was a motorcycle built by Orange County Choppers on the American reality television show American Chopper. Mike Teutul made his entrance into the world of custom bike building with this blues themed chopper. Originally supposed to be helped by his brother, Paul Teutul Jr., he eventually grows fed up with his brother's lack of assistance on the project and enlists various members of the Orange County Choppers staff (Mikey commented on how helpful Christian Welter was) to create this unique bike from a wholly new perspective for OCC.

Mikey made sure the paint job was beautiful and different. Being a blues bike, the bulk of the bike was obviously blue, but the difference was in the details. The wheels were spoked with gold spokes and their inside edges muraled with musical notes. In addition, all along the bike are painted images representative of various famous bluesmen such as B. B. King, Robert Johnson, Taj Mahal, and Gatemouth Brown.

This bike's chief importance was bringing Mikey out of the office and into the shop, but it will always be an American Chopper fan favorite as it features such a large amount of Mikey, a continual fan favorite.
