- For the first time seeing if the 1976 Harley Davidson Ironhead Sportster Chopper Bobber Build will run after several years in the making. But beforehand, I had the honor of meeting Termite Offroad; some fellow youtubers whom I love to watch.

Drove a 1970's Wagoneer from Detroit to Jackson Hole Wyoming on Christmas eve 1977 with 3 friends! 🤣
Always an adventure getting from point A to point B on an Ironhead or Shovelhead. 😎
My first Harley Davidson was an angry ol' Ironhead right hand shift. 💖
Old bikes have soul.
Sounds like a time to be had!
I just got my first motorcycle and its also a iron head right shifter its all in parts bare frame trying to figure out where to start building it
Haha, I had the exact same reaction when I brought my 79' ironhead out for the first time last year. Screaming/laughing with excitement. Such raw, fun bikes. Fair play man!
Hell ya they are. There is nothing like rippin down the road on a ironhead.....that is healthy.
Cool, i bought a ironhead in 1979. Mine was fun, but troublesome ! My old Triumph was more reliable ! Both were maintenance intensive, fun though!
60 minutes ago i came home from work on my 1985 ironhead!!!!i love it
Righteous!
Always a good feeling when they return to life and agree 50mph cruise on an older bike gives enjoyment only the likes of us can understand .
Stay safe all.
I am excited to see the iron head breathing and I can't imagine how you feel. I remember the day it came home and even though you couldn't use the original oil tank I believe it is turning out to be a hell of a bike. Well as always ride 55 and ride free.
Been a long time coming
So good to see that running. 👍🏾👍🏾
Yes it is.
"Shimmy sham with that ho-do flipper. Coming on strong man with that ironhead"
Dude. That boy is the funniest person I've seen in a long time. That was hilarious.
You should turn that into part of a intro or outtro.
That old bike sounds great!!!
You are one heck of a good mechanic, brother.
Good job. God Bless.
I'm not that great, but thanks. I agree... the sound cannot be immitated.
Thank you for sharing your excitement , nothing better than riding some at speed that didnt exist before you built it .....life affirming .
Now I can't wait to get my 71' on the road...it was a barn find that sat for 20+ yrs it's in rough shape but slowly building it....bike sounds great hoss and your nuffin but smiles awesome
Awesome!!!! Hope our paths cross again while you are riding it would love to see and hear it in person. Felt like an eternity watching you work on it, the wait was worth it.
I can't believe it started that quick and from your reaction I don't think you did either. Good job on the build keep the excitement going.
Sounded real good! Have fun with your Ironhead! My Shovelhead is a 4 speed, It likes to cruise at 55 or 60. It's all good!
Right on
Its Alive Its Alive. Congratulations Cory.
I grew up around the livestock haulers of the 70s and 80s... I started riding with in 81 and they'd actually pop it in neutral at the top and let her rip going downhill.. they didn't do it everywhere but places where there's very little curves
I love your excitement. Fantastic
😄 excellent, a kid with a new toy !
Sometimes people wonder why it is we ride.... well , there it is, in one short video ✌️
Right on!
Sweet ride! I love the old bikes especially Sportsters and Evos. 1 year ago, I moved from Boise Idaho where the riding season is short but diverse to central Louisiana where I can now ride most of the year so after I finish this comment, I'm riding! Congrats on getting that old iron running again.
1976 was a fantastic year...this motorcycle proves it. ;)
That's awesome! It's great to see the ironhead on the road!
Awesome indeed!
Man it's been a minuet since you got that thing and it's so cool it's running and rideable. Drum brakes, oh man I got them too and if I didn't have the front brakes I don't know how much I would ride my bike. Brake fade is a real thing and I learned that a couple of weekends ago when I over shot a corner on some twisty's. Lucky no one was coming so it was ok. Respect these old bikes or they will bit you. Termite reminds me of my old FJ-60 Land Cruiser. 65 mph down hill.
Congratulations! The first time It starts is like your new kid's first cry in the delivery room.
Man it was awesome watching this bike run. I knew exactly how you felt riding it for the first time. Sounds like a strong runner to!
It's crude, and I can dig it. It was good meeting you guys. We're gonna come up your way soon enough.
Sooooo cool. Very happy your Iron Head came out a success. Hopefully you can get that other tank working. God Bless and enjoy that old beast. 👍
She’s alive!!!
I’ve got a 74 hard tailed. Awesome and like they said “raw” bike. Love it!
Yeah! I’m stickin around.
You're the man!
Great seeing your excitement
Thank you, Nancy.
I still remember your first video on that Ironhead and then the hurricane happened and well... then trying to get the shop built and the insurance debacle lol.
I remember them all too well.
Nice! I'm resurrecting a '78 I got out of the blackberry bushes.
Sometime this week my 76 XLH total rebuild will be ready to roll. Totally stoked, thanks for the motivation!!!!
Right on!
they sound like two Kool folks. I will check out there channel. I really like your new shop, I hope there is no trees around it. I'm like you, I live in Hurricane Ally. I live in L.A (lower Alabama). I might take a ride over your way one-day and camp out. Ride Safe Tramp. I enjoy you videos.
Hey Cory That is awesome, I feel the excitement. My girlfriend has a 74 Sportster, and when I ride it especially in the city you have to be so aware of the brake and shifter. Like you say though it sounds great and is fun. You are an amazing mechanic. Stay safe and say hi to Kim.
Thanks, Joe. I'll do that.
Way ta go, Cory!!! Yup, a long time coming but it LIVES!!!
I remember those days riding iron heads and shovels when motorcycle riding was an adventure
I bet they were!
Well done young man
Congrats to you, been there, nothing like bringing an old vehicle back from the dead, nothing to compare it to
Congratulations Tramp! Nothing like first start up of something that started as a box of parts. You'll get used to the right hand shift. Way back in the dark ages of 1974 I was running a DT 250 Yamaha and a 66 BSA for the summer. Couple of unplanned, hard downshifts and you adapt.
It's odd to to say the least.
Thats awesome brother sounds good too had a huge smile on my face when it cranked great job amigo!
Can't express it enough!
Awww yeah. I have been watching this series and finally get to see it go!
Cool chop, loving it as always!
Alright! That's awesome. Sounds great. Always nice to see you happy man. 👊😎
There's that kid in a candy store again....🤣😂🤣 COOL
Love how you still have that first time rider giggle, awesome job Amigo, from Cape Cod with love..Chuck
Thanks, Chuck!
nice you got it on the roadjust finished up alot of the small things on mine and waiting for the weather to break with all the rain to test it out. congrats on getting it finished nothing like seeing the end line
Had a 1972 xlch chopped out, man that brings back a lot of memories.
I bet it does.
Good job. I remember when they were new. Your garage is nicer & cleaner than the harley dealership that bike was sold from. How times have changed.
It's cool to see it running especially after I heard the story about how you acquired it and what it means to you
It's a different kind of an appreciation than the Tramp's first startup.
Congratulations on the iron head !
Thanks, man!
I have a 1972 XLCH IM BUILDING great video old bikes are COOL ...The Older the Better
I agree!
✊😎
She sounds good!
Different than normal? Ha, all your videos are different than normal. It’s why I like you. God bless you brother.
Thank you, man... That means a lot.
Awesome brother
Thanks!
Nice. Working with the town. Trying to get building permit. They want to start building. bike sounds great. Can hear the excitement in your voice. Enjoy.
Stealthily turning your garage into a bike-shop w/o the wife catching on until it's too late. I like it 👍
Lol
That is awsome...you got her running!!!! Lot hard work right there.
You got that right!
Watching your videos takes me back when I was younger my brother and I had paper routes there was a biker guy all the time I'll go collect from him he had his Chopper in his dining room I thought it was weird as I got older I respected that and now I knew how much money he had into it he and all his biker Buddies would give me shit because I used to like the sound the newspaper made on his aluminum screen door he would tell my brother for me to stop that shit had a lot of love for that man
Bad ass chopper man!
I love classic ironheads. Hope to get one after my current build. Massive respect for the hard work brother. Keep makin the sweet content.
Thanks! Will do!
Congrats !! ... Sweet Ass Bike ... It goes to show with Patience , Determination & Hardwork ... in the end it all pays off.
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s
Smooth Brother, I remember the first runs after a build
Nothin like it, huh?
@@SaddleTrampTV No it sure isn't. Seems like those bikes are the ones I like the best. Getting ready for our memorial day flag ride here. Planting flags for those of our family no longer here with us. Pistol Pete
Heck yea ..
Way to go ..
Ride the wheels off it ..
Congratulations Corey on the Iron. I’d say the difference between an Iron getting you there over an EVO is the appreciation level one has for an Iron making it problem free. We ironically took maintenance free to the next level with the Evo lol.
Yeah it's somewhat a sense of accomplishment.
The iron sounds great and Nice people you met.
Congrats brother.....she looks good and sounds even better. Ride safe
Ooh yea,sweet sound there Mr Tramp. 👍🏼👊🏼
Heck yea Sir I dig this video. FANTASTIC WORK IN ALL WAYS
It's alive! The look on your face when it fired right up........Priceless
I know, right? Lol
Sound's real good. Keep Your knee's in the breeze Brother. 🦅
Will do!
That's awesome man
Great to see it up running and going down the road! Sounds awesome! You best buy another project to keep the content coming so we can all stay tuned!! lol great work Corey
With a shovel, an ironhead, and 3 other Harleys... There's always something.
Nice one. Glad to see you moving on.
Hey, Saddle Tramp!! Congrats on getting the '76 Ironhead on the road!! I know full well what you mean about it taking years and you wonder if it will ever be done and on the road. I just finished my dream bike; a '49 FL Pan that I began building in February of 2015. It's an "Easy Rider" "Captain America" tribute bike. Enjoy that Ironhead!! I've never owned one, but a lot of my friends had them back in the day, and they're a blast to ride!!😊😊
Thanks! Will do.
Yay bro I’ve watched you since I was a teenager and now I have my own Harley ironhead and when I got her running I was a lil bit more happy but hey right on bro🎉
Dig it, man. Heck yeah!
Haunted house on 2 wheels, now that's funny! When my friends ask me how my '65 runs, I tell them that it runs like a jack hammer, but yeah, it's also like a haunted house on wheels as you never know if you're going to make it home in one piece. :-)
Glad to see you riding it got a sportster I will ride no brakes got to work on it, also need get mid controls for to im short don't like riding like in a hammock anyone got some parts?
Cool Beans!
Wow man great video. I'll definitely go check them out and by the sounds of your voice you can tell how happy you were man to have the ole ironhead going.. Good job.
Thank you, Carson. It was a happy day.
Well done. Yep, love the sound. My first Harley was a Sportster, that was over 40 years ago. I put drag pipes on. I loved the sound but the guys I rode with didn't. When we rode together there was a pocket they didn't want to get into.
You’re my Hero!! Kudos on the Ironhead. We need to ride soon.
I agree
AWESOME My Man! It's FINALLY Alive! Congratulations!
Yes! Thank you!
Wagoneers are damn cool. I dig everything old and classic. Love the videos!
Congrats 👏 sounds great 👍
Thanks!
this is EPIC to see this rolling down the road! Well done! cool video good sir!
Epic is a good word for it!
Corey, you started that bike up and it sounded awesome but I said to myself I'd never want to trust it dpwn the road.....but then there you go laughing and loving the ride. Great to see you feelin life! Thanks for Sharing!
ITS ALIVE! How happy did you sound lol, awesome to see it on the road mate, congratulations
Thank you, my friend.
Awesome video. Well done. I also have a 76. Customized. My problem is I have 1st and 2nd, but no 3rd or 4th.
Bummer, man!
a 23t front sprocket really helped my chopped sport with highway speed
That was a great video. Loved your excitement riding the bike. Great work! Hellllooooo Missus!!! Love you guys- you do great work!
Thank you, Missy!
I hate that put stuff off and then when you do something it just falls together sounds healthy looks good 👍
Keep it between the mustard and mayo rubber side down later gbu
Awesome bro corey
Thank you, Daniel.
Long live the Ironhead!
Love my ironhead but I've got the cases split to change the flywheel. Back together soon. The cv carb loves a 48 or 50 pilot jet.
cool man. glad you got to ride it. it does sound really good. good vid
Good stuff
Thank you, Brandon
I think rat rod Bob lives in Mississippi. dragging fly is what we call it in the trucking industry
Congrats STramp
Nice fix, nice bike. I wish my back roads near Atlanta were that void of traffic.🤓
I hear ya, man.
