This cool bike looks similar to the one Strawberry had on Cheech and Chong a Up In Smoke!
His reaction when he said 50k. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I remember how back in the 60s a guy could buy a crated new WWII bike for $35- &$50, American or British bikes. A neighbor friend bought both a Harley & Norton commando with side car & turned them into some great looking choppers. In fact the chopper craze of the late 60s killed this military surplus market. They all sold out, but what a price.
Is it just me or does the front of that side car look like a pickle?!
anthony cypher lol
The guy riding in it is a pickle. Lol
Hadn't thought of that but you're right. L.o.l.
@laser325 got ripped off Danny the Conman Joker Kocker
🤣
Only in America would someone pay a dude with horns 50K to paint his bike...
Lol
He’s Canadian. I’ve worked with him
Awesome custom job. This guy is a baller , willing to throw down $50k. A ww2 bike done right.
I don't get it though...Y would u make it cool to fool
And I'm here watching this excellent work from Pakistan ❣️
those old triumphs are a bit odd because the gears and brakes are on the wrong side
I love the old tryumph and brough superiors im 14 and tried to get it as my first buke but then i realized they where so expensive
This is the best bike they have done it’s not over the top.
50K for a classic triumph ? 😱
Too much?
I found it a little high , but I'm not rich so...
They got just the carburetor and transmission from UK, it was just fitting the sidecar and repaint all.
@@sajedb I wonder what they charge for labor.. 🤔
@@chrisjoe187 An arm and a leg and your first born.
He ment Canada dollars. 😂
Oof,that bike is beautiful. Amazing work by Danny and Team
For $10k yeah sure. For $50,000 for a carb replacement, fresh paint (plus some stickers and accents), and side car additional? Come on. It looks ugly, and the guy got robbed.
@@SmoothS3TH yeah for 50k,that's mediocre paint job. But again it's military.
@@SmoothS3TH That was the budget he had to play with. They didn't say they actually spent the whole 50k on the bike.
Firstly it should be matt green not gloss and there should be no chrome, this does not look anything like a WW2 military bike they messed up big time and ripped off the customer. I restored a BSA WM20 myself back to full military spec and all in with the cost of the bike for a full off frame restoration was US$12K
Should have done drab matte olive green instead of the gloss
@laser325 IKR this guy got ripped big time 50k !
3:40 that paint job was not good
i kinda see it, sort of scratched a bit at the bottom of fender
He paid 50k for that scratch Shesh 😭
They screwed the customer right off the bat. Shop guy was thinking $30 grand for restoration.
If done in third world countries it could be done under 2 grands
@@bugirana: When I lived in California, I always took my "special" cars to Mexico for custom painting, or having custom leather interior installed. Cost about a quarter of the price they charged in the States.
You realize theres a difference between their budget and time paid for labour... 50k was the most amount they were allowed to spend for parts and labour not the actual bill lmao
@@slowazzd2165: The only bill I've ever paid for custom work on a vehicle was for parts & labor.
@@nerblebun Cost might be cheaper, but the risk you're taking is driving in Mexico with a nice car.
As a rational consumer, I will never disclose my Budget First, Never
Of course...that is ridiculous. They can do job for 30k and say we got you under budget at 48k lol.
That's classic 😍
what a beautiful bike
Amazing WWII bike
50k they are fooling uuu
WOW!!!! Amazing bike... so cool
Easy with the right turns on the road
Just put a black coloured seats.
Wow , i did not know it was THAT easy to steel Money
It is a cool looking bike. I think the sidecar could have come a little closer a few more inches seems the stick out there pretty good I see somebody kept in that car with that one LOL
Pause at 3.41 and you will see a slight damage on the paint job.
I don't like it tbh. They have rushed it. And all those crests on top look comical. Should have ONE crest on the side of the mudguard.
Reminds me of the 500 Matchless
Not happy with the colorful details of the sidecar... It looks like an ordinary tricycle from the Philippines
Tanga
Never, ever say what your budget is !!! Tell them what you want, ask for an estimate w/ specific parts and labor....
Exactly because than shop know they can charge up to that amount for extra revenue! Makes no sense
is it Stunning? brother?
Did he say it came all d way from Pakistan, insane
The only thing I like British is Ozzy Osbourne
My father used to have one triumph tiger here in Pakistan when he was young in 60s
That totally has to be the Toy guy from Pawn Stars brother?! 😆
I love chrome to , it belongs on a bike!
The cucumber sidecar.
He actually meant 50k canadian dollars :p
All these restro shows have ridiculous price tags.
Did you guys took the whole 50g?
This bike is all over from Pakistan.
when folks have more dollars than sense
$45,000 - $50,000 and he already owned bike.
Got ripped off.
Very nice
Sad to see classic bike exported from Pakistan.owner must have moved out to canada....
From Pakistan niceee
They said that back then the side car was on the left side. Wonder why the customer wanted it on the right? Especially since he never rode a bike with a side car before.
@laser325 Oh that's right. Hadn't thought about that. Thanks for the reminder.
Side cart looks like a watermelon not feeling it
Would ya just look at it! 🤣😂🤣
Too bad Wolfman Jack is known as the Wolfman because it would fit Danny better than the Count.
What a hairball.
His clients must be super rich or something.
The paint is completely wrong. A real military motorcycle paint job is nothing like that. I have a Soviet Union Dnepr military sidecar motorcycle in Russian green. Every painted part is a slightly different Russian green color. The factory (KMZ) made and painted parts in separate areas of the factory and some parts came from other specialized factory's such as fenders and fairings so naturally all the parts would end up slightly different shades of the same Russian green color. Also the sidecar to motorcycle spacing is way to wide. It's obvious those guys have never set up a hack. For $50,000 they should have paid someone with sidecar experience do it for them.
Cool bike but the paint job was horrific. Look at 3:41 the fender has paint chips and also you can see who ever detailed it left buffing swirls on it.👎🏼
Definitely a Canadian.
👍
SWEET
🙏🙏🙏
50 thousand too much
How much was the total bill?
37,343.54 USD Worthy motorcycle
$50k to restore a bike and add a sidecar?! A bit much. lol
That was the max
50k was a ripoff.. that's like 75k Canadian essentially for a paint job and a sidecar.
Max was 50 but it’s a full rebuild and restore adding and restoring the sidecar
cool
Britishers left their Junk (1947 TO 1961, British Monarch Remained Pakistan's Monarch too, hoping to get favors to settle Pakistanis in common wealth/UK...begging strategy) in Pakistan, they have been collecting it ever since...
🤙🏻
All that, and they didn't put rubbers on the kick lever or shifter? Pffft
That side car looks very far from thr bike
50,000 😳
That is Canadian 50,000.. 20, 00 freedom Dollar
The side car looks like a pickle
It came from Pakistan 😀
Why is customer trying to sound Irish ☘️?
A lot of Canadians are of Irish ancestry, and their accents still have traces of the Irish, especially in Newfoundland and the Maritimes
Tell the count to wear some sleeves
I can’t stand looking at his harm pits anymore.
It may be great when you are 20 but now it’s just gross
Pakistan wow me to
I HEARD YOU ARE GOOD IN ALGEBRA, CAN U REPLACE MY "X" WITHOUT ASKING "Y" ?
Have a good day ahead🤗
🔥🔥🔥
Bro overpaid for this...
O M G 😳👏😁
30lakh rs ++++ too much
seems overpriced
Bs military
Get some help
Stop over pricing your products
Why put the sidecar on n take all the chrome off?,,he shoulda just restored it n kept it red,,man that woulda looked beautiful...
Woow.....🤩👍🇨🇦
