Barf Party the FXR is entering its final form. Like a disgusting caterpillar, it is going through some horrific kafkaesque metamorphism. What new horror emerges from the cocoon? Stay tuned and see. Keep it weird y'all #shadetreearmy - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I ❤️ the Chey Tree Surgeon Show
Absolutely love that your content is relatable. No 10k$ tool box filled with 50k$ tools. This channel really shows you don’t need to have a shit ton of money to fix/modify things. No matter how big this channel gets he’s not leaving us behind with high tech tools and equipment.
This is turning into a adorable Uncle/Niece garage work/talks. Way to spend family time together. 👍🏽
Her painting that fender looked cool as shit she did a great job she’s a amazing artist!
I didn't realize just how much work she put into it either. It looks great but I thought it took less work to make it that way. Awesome job.
Got to put some clear coat on that ...
Josh,I have mention this before but the time you're spending with your niece showing her how to wrench is something she will cherish the rest of her life. I still remember my Uncle and I building a stingray bicycle together when I was like 8. The time he spent on that bike to make it look new still makes me smile. Rest in Peace Uncle I.V. You are a good dude Shadetree!
Chey is adorable. Its cool she is down to wrench on stuff with you. Even the ol crusty glide.
I really enjoy watching you work with Chey. She seems genuinely interested in working on shit. Keep it up!
Chey makes my teacher genes happy. Nothing like seeing the light come on during a teaching/sharing of knowledge moment, is there @shadetree?
Thanks for putting up with the churlish DM's and coming back to be part of more videos Chey!
what a great uncle showing her how to grasp twist and pull.😂🤣 But for real, really cool you teaching her how to work on bikes. Great team very funny.
Dig your maintenance/working on bikes videos. Although you clearly know more than I, seeing how open you are about mistakes, oversights, etc makes me feel better about my own follies in the garage. Gives me hope I can one day I will be able to build the "chopper of my dreams."
I mess up all the time! Trying to hide it would be a full time job 😂
Good to see that even though Shadetree has grown to a large audience, he still hasn't become "too good" or "too busy" to read/drop some hearts on comments. One of the few (only?) people I follow who ride Harley's. I get the strong feeling that even if you ride a bike that he makes fun of, he'd still be down to drink a beer and tell a few stories. Respect.
Absolutely man! Just cause I don’t like something doesn’t make it bad, I’ve got very questionable taste 😂
The way your forearms shook and tensed up as you grasped the shaft and shook it off... that is precisely what has me coming back for more
"I know what I'm doing" *uses file backwards*
Love ya, my dude. Good job on the drilling stuff, and getting proper bits. Watching you work on Barf Party is a highlight of my day every time you post up new stuff.
😂🤷🏻♂️
Funny how many don't know how, but it is good enough to make ti work.
You are the cool uncle! Friendly tip is when loosening a through bolt it is easier to turn the nut instead of the bolt and it you have a wrench which is longer it has a leverage advantage. Great to see her learning how to work on a bike.
Dude you’re showing young ladies, that young ladies can in fact work on bikes. That’s cool. 👍🏼 🌎
It’s so cool that you’re showing Chey how to do this stuff, and even more cool that she wants to learn! Loving these videos, Shadetree!
Good choice letting Chey paint the fender. It looks fantastic!
Josh and Chey keep mentioning that she's your niece, you work well together and strangers may be jealous of you young man. TORX if you strip an allen head bolt, go to the next size torx, tap it in and it should loosen the bolt! I use a ratchet and a wood working clamp to set fork tube end caps. I can screw down the pressure as I turn the ratchet tightening the cap. Just a few ideas from a fellow shade tree. Plus, I'm not as big as you So every slight I can use is a benefit. That's why I like watching Chey work. It reminds me of my daughter and son in the shop learning to maintain their own vehicles- two or four wheels!
Great paint job Chey, what a tremendous talent! Lot's of love for you young Lady!
Josh, pass it on please?
Hoka Hey
Of COURSE Chey is an awesome painter, too!
And, bro, I know that there are bummer days, and I know you don't let them get you down for too long, but I still feel like I need to tell you what a blessing your videos are in my life. I may not be making videos, but it's such a fuckin' joy to see you still going hard at it and making your dreams happen - especially when you can involve friends and family.
Firmly grasp the shaft of life, and keep banging it off! Much love, brother.
Oh sweet another episode of Chey tree surgeon 😁
Between that music, and that cute little girl painting......I just love it.
Dude it is genuinely heartwarming to see you and Chey wrenching on motorcycles together. This kind of content shines a welcome bit of light into a largely gray and dismal year. Thanks for doing what you do!
I love the bike maintenance videos, it brings out my inner mechanic.
Can’t believe your videos are the reason I bought a street glide. Keep them up!
The sense of humor between you two is awesome. 😂😂
Chey is quickly becoming BSG most popular mechanic! Good vid and good choice on fixing the suspension!
Great job Shay, that looks awesome! Perfect pick Shadetree, please get that beautiful artwork cleared so it stays for a long time.
I always enjoy watching you work on the FXR. Seeing it from where it was to now has been awesome and makes me want to go out and get an older motorcycle to wrench on.
Pretty cool kid, and she's a pretty good buddy too. Lots of respect for the friendship you guys have.
Wow Chey,
That is some really good Free hand painting on that fender. Very nice work young Lady. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I think it’s great what you guys are doing together. Definitely brought a spark to the channel. 🇦🇺
Use a round file to create a small flat on the round tube. Centerpunch for your drill. Use the vice jaws as a datum to ensure your punch mark is in the centre. This ensures the hole will be perpendicular to the centre of the round piece.
I just learned the ball end hex lesson. You only have to do it once. Life lesson. Love the content
Enjoy the videos you do with Chey. You two make a great team! Wonderful positive 'can do' approach! Also Chey did a fantastic piece of art on that Fender...hope she signed it! I think I see a potential side-line for her in creating unique art work on motorcycle fenders tanks and stuff. Cheers!
Shade tree is the uncle we all deserve! Great job teaching the younger generation how to wrench on and ride bikes! The crusty glide is definitely coming together! Love the videos my dude 🤘🏼
Life is always easier with the right tool(that's what she said)...good video and enjoy seeing someone else has to make parts/tool runs.
Be blessed and look forward to Crusty on the road again.
What an uncle! Go chey! You two are brilliant! Deepest respect from a biking brewer👍
Great video. I really like the forks upgrade. Makes me think i can upgrade the ones on my 2002 Road King myself. I also loved the quality time you spent with Shay.
Super cool video. Awesome paint on the fender. Great job Shey.
It's great fun to see the wrenching together vids, makes me think back on the hours of banging my head against my first bike 😁
Also wow, that front fender looks awesome, perfect fit for barf party 😂
I love when shadetree bangs stuff off after firmly grasping the shaft.😘
Yes, grasp that shaft and yank it ShadeTree... Glad Barf Party is reaching its final form!
Cool video! Crusty Glide is coming together brother!! That’s a beautiful dog walking around there too.
You can't say bang it out while holding something long and hard in your hands and not make every guy watching giggle like a school kid! Love the vids!!
You are a great uncle! Chey will appreciate these times more as time goes on.
That front fender is a work of art, a Monet.
I made my own tool for putting the cap back on, I hammered a piece of wood into a socket to set the depth I needed then I welded a bar across the top of the socket for a handle, it made replacing the springs and fork seals on my sporty bobber so much easier
This bike has come a long way man I remember when the video came out when he bought it. My dad has a fxrp and I will be an fxr boy till the day I die.
That fender is definitely an original now! It’s super cool that she wants to spend some time with you and hang and learn about your hobbies. Keep up the great content man. Ps. You firmly grasp the shaft and bang it off like a pro!
I Love being early. I was just finishing up flips video
I must say they way you grasp that long, hard, rod, and push it up and down and up and down to get if off .. is quite ... satisfying. I am glad you got the right size key to make sure you don't strip the bolts. but as always great video and great way to explain stuff. cheers.
Another badass video as usual, loving the way the fxr is starting to turn out
Great video Josh really enjoyed it Chey is a very talented artist your front guard looks awesome your skills are starting to come together as l long time viewer to your channel regards and stay safe Anthony from down under
I love these videos!! You two are great!!
You and your co-host are killin it, really enjoying the content, thank you.
Home Depot really is the DMV of stores. And shout out Chey's painted front fender. Very appropriate since, to quote Clueless, Barf Party truly is a "Monet."
Best looking front fender I've ever seen, man. She did a great job!
Love your content , my favourite channel to watch on CZcams
Show Shay the wonderful world of Cheater bars to help with the tight stuff! Super super helpful!!
One of my favorite channels. Love ya Shadetree👊
Love from South Africa mate🇿🇦🤙
Motorcycle information value: 7/10
Pure entertainment/ comedic value: 10/10
You 2 together in a vid are a goldmine. :D
Shadetree and his far better looking 'mini-me' ;-) That front fender is going to get you noticed :-)
maybe even get you a win against Flip when you decide to pick another girl?
So, is he riding solo now these days? Where's jess?
Terry Barton I wondered about this too. They are split up and she almost immediately got a new boyfriend 🤔🤔🤔
Did triumph chick keep the dogs and the house?
@@dannolan6228 Shitty. But that is big of Shadetree not to shovel any dirt on her. That takes patience and character.
Congrats Shadetree! The front fender is now worth more than the rest of the FXR! Great looking artwork!
Love your videos, man. I'm needing to go back and watch some of your earlier vids, but, I'm fairly current. Really neat that you got your niece involved. She seems to have your personality. Uncle Shadetree. Yeah, that's got a ring to it. Anyway, you 2 ride safe and best of luck on all your future endeavors.
You guys are awesome! Love the content!
who else heard Patrick Star say "FIRMLY GRASP IT!"?
...........and he used those big strong hands 😅😂🤣😅😂🤣
I know man, I'm honestly disappointed that there wasn't a clip of Patrick saying that in the video lol
Thees something quite therapeutic about watching shade tree wrench on his bikes. A little bit like watching Mr T get the A Team out of a bind with something highly lethal that he's made from a few old pallets a gas welder and similar.
Gotta tell ya, I’m enjoying the teaching videos. And what did I learn today from shade tree firmly grip your fork shaft..NICE👌🏻
WOW !!! What an artist on that fender !!!
As always great mentoring! Also, I think Chey has found her calling, custom painting.... "Cheylessi's Custom Paint & Mods" nice ring to it!
I absolutely love the artwork your niece performed on the fender.
Good video!!! Awsome painting 🖼 👌 😀
Damn it. Just keeps getting better. Im overwhelmed by the love you get from family and friends. If things get all bent here in the Pacific northwest im riding to Tampa. Keep the ugly side up!🤙
Yay another vid with Chey
Your niece is adorable!! Atta girl!! I like working on my bikes too and learning how to do more stuff on them when I have man help!!
Thanks for the inspiration! I acquired a 1989 FXRS “Hooptie Glide”
Dude you are an inspiration, my favourite channel by far.
Thanks man :)
I think it would be cool to see one of your bikes with suspension mods on a "tail of the gecko" or "ozello trail" ride. Great content Josh, and Chey. One of my favorite channels.
Lookin forward to seeing her buttoned up with the new suspension and fairing. Keeps getting more and more road worthy, don't it? 👍
Damn, Josh! 'Chey-tree" Surgeon dis a fantastic job on that fender. Quite the artiste! Not sure I'd want that on my own bike but it does give a certain peace-love hippy vibe to good ol Barfparty. Can't wait to see that installed.
See y'all! ☺✌
Man this really inspires me to keep pushing forward on my 94 fxr lowrider build
Make sure that fender gets at least. Two coats of clear coat she did. A really nice job on it.
Bro I love your vids, please keep it up!
Drawing on a file will blunt them always go into the part... I was waiting for the drill to break well done getting them in...
Great channel I'm new just working my way though a year back of videos is where I started.
Legit been watching for years. Just now realized I’ve never subscribed. So I fixed that today.
Keep sharing the knowledge !
This one made me laugh, one of your best videos man. Keep it up.
Love the front fender paint, Chey's really good!
Chey's a talented artist
Love the intro and you got me started on motorcycles
Great Video As Always.
Grasp it harder daddy! Serious tho, it’s refreshing to see the youth today. Picking up tools and doing things the old fashioned ways. Super Rad Shade and Chey! Keep it metal y’all!
I just recently converted my 1999 road king to a road glide and put a 21" front tire on it, I love it, it looks bad ass and sounds a whole lot better now that I pulled baffles out of the mufflers on the 88" twin cam motor
Love tha way you're getting the lasses to get their hands dirty.
We've got a lass at our local tyre (tire for my American friends) shop and she's a lot better than the blokes (easy on the eye too! 😁).
I completely love that fender, it's going to look amazing!
Excellent shaft gripping, you got that off pretty good.
... whoa... that’s some serious artwork... was think a candy apple red or satin anything but whoa... okay... great job cheyleesi...
Hey man i left the long positive on flips video today . Thank you for the recommendation for berts and the ride factory was fantastic for my buddies bike. Again thank you.
I read your comment over there! Glad they took care of ya man, that’s awesome
@@shadetreesurgeon cool , i would have preferred to say thank you in person but hey its the 90s , everybodys doing it . Also i met Richard real cool guy hes from my moms neck of the woods.
Performance spring or stock... Either way it's always a headache getting those fork caps back on. Great show.
Can confirm.
I like doing it on the ground. You can get right on top of it and put your weight into it.
Yep. Getting slugged in the nose with a flying fork cap isn't something I wake up in the morning and look forward to.
I hate messing with fork tubes
Ratchet strap is what comes to mind buy I am sure there is a tool...which I don't have?
Always love FXR content.
Keep up the teachings. 👍
Love my 85 low glide. ✌️
That was cool Shadetree.😎
