  • Welcome to the new series 74 & more, episode #1. In this series we'll get the low down on crazy rides, breakdowns and different builders ideas on what helps them make the bikes they do. In this week's episode I sat down with Jake Smith who has an awesome story about his first ride on this shovel/pan. Sit down, relax and crack a cold one and enjoy.

    Great video. Love the chopper. I own a 75 FLH shovelhead. Have always wanted an old school style long chopper, but with rear suspension.

    The bikes cool. The wheels are freakin assume. I have been looking for a original set for 40 years.

      I have considered the podcast before, just need to find someone else to hop on it with me so we can argue about the different styles haha

      @houseofchoppers I think it would be a success especially if you let other builders come on via Skype.

    Here in America you don't see many people running car wheels anymore.. the Swedish style they're still running them.. I dig the old school long choppers.. I have never built a chopper but I've got 2 softails and one of them are going to be raked and stretched

    Those American Racing (Cal) mags are made of magnesium alloy. For a short time, Performance Machine offered up the same wheels made out of aluminum (I believe). I dig the stance of your bike. The two-into-one exhaust looks great too - like the old Alphabets (Cycle Shack) two-into-one exhaust. Best to you, Jake, and to your family.

      I didn't know they ever did the American racing wheels in aluminum, man would it be sweet to get a set of those. Same to you!

      @@houseofchoppers - Yeah. I'm not 100% sure those American Racing 12-spoke wheels were made from aluminum. A long time ago, I talked with a sales rep from Performance Machine, and I THINK he said those wheels were made from aluminum. Still, using those kinds of wheels in aluminum for a project would be a hit. I've noticed a lot of guys running those 12-spoke mags. I first took notice of them on a HA's bike which was featured in Choppers magazine. I know that Dick Allen ran an 18-inch American Racing wheel on the front of his, "Locomotion" Knuck. Thanks, HOC! Keep up the great work!

      That's correct. Death Valley run, and it is invite only. Give me a few episodes of this series and I'll make sure to pry out all that information during the sit down. Thanks for watching.
