The video you have been waiting for I think? but unfortunately we missed to good part. We travel around from swap meet to swap meet and change our springer right at the campsite. Special thank you to freak show fabrication and Weems!
WE LOVE OPENING YOUR PACKAGES

You guys could turn a funeral into a party. Even with the springer snapping, it looks like y’all had a good time. I like how you kept it cool when it broke and went right to work finding a replacement. I think I would have lost it big time, especially with minimal sleep. Glad y’all made it home safe.

Love that regardless of where he is at or who he’s interacting with, he’s always looking for knuckle parts. 👊🏽
This is one of my top 5 favorite videos on CZcams. Freaking choptacular!
Thanks for watching man!!
Sean from Bikes and Beards said he wants a Knucklehead, he was talking they bring well over 6 figures. I had to set him straight. Told him for a '36 concourse restoration or original paint it would bring that amount. I really don't think he likes me. You guys are awesome. Glad you made it home safe and sound, well, maybe not sound. You guys bring the party to us!
Edit: I fired up my Harley yesterday, it was a beautiful day yesterday, in Ohio, took it for a long ride, to clear my mind, if that's possible...damn '80's.
Hell yeah man good for you! I live in Youngstown and I’m working 10’s all day in Barberton, so no-joy but I’m happy for ya!
Sean who? Lol
that dude also thinks the v rod is the coolest bike harley made so i wouldnt stress too much
@@greysonjune5598 I told him I hope his wallet is bigger than his ego.
I don't watch him, he's a click baiter, and exaggerator.
Problems and the ability to overcome them, welcome to the world of antique bikes, absolutely loved it. Have a blessed week my friends.
How I spent my vacation? Wrenching on motorcycles in the Florida heat. Good job guys. RMM
Possibly one of my favourite vids … my opinion ,,, reinforce and make safe what you have on the red bike ,and keep it as close to how it came back from bike week … as homage to the trip and trophy … just adds to the history and stories of the “Red Bike” . Love it man !
Awesome to see the positive vibes and making most of a situation.
Dude by me snapped his springer a few weeks ago. Went over the handlebars and died. Gf on the back got messed up too..
Live to ride another day bros!!!
That dude said “I’m not wanted anymore” lmao what a guy. That’s the dudes I like to run into.
I can’t believe I’ve walked passed and petted so many dogs and not once did I ask where the knuckles are. No wonder I have a sportster
😂
This is literally one of the best channels on CZcams ….Glad y’all had a good time in my State..
As for nothing is as easy as it looks, you can always count on the unanticipated to be anticipated, ain't that the ball busting truth. I'm impressed how you guys scrambled scratched and clawed your way to rescue the chopper when your chips were down. Not to worry cause those who worry dwell on troubles, you guys bit the bullet and spit it out and the chopper rose from the dust dirt and mud to see the road again. It was an accident waiting to happen, glad nobody got hurt. Balls of steal ! Gotta like and subscribe.
part of dealing is never letting the other person know how much you need it
They might have bought that springer from me 20 years ago off of Ebay. I used to buy and sell a lot of used old school springers with model A radius rods welded on. You have to sleave those to work.
You got any more?

Binge watching!
Metal fatigue is one reason why old extended springers fail. The springer you guys ran was a hack job. My Dad was a metallurgist for a specialty steel company. He told me that H-D applied corrosion-resistant Parkerization to most of their inline springers from the 1930s -- 1950. If that Parkerization finish wasn't properly removed before welding, it could contaminate the weld zone. Not everyone has a facility to x-ray (Magnaflux) welds, but if you can go that route, then do so for your ass's sake. Over the decades, I've seen four springers take a header: two extended H-D springers, a newer custom springer from a "reputable" company and a barnyard special from a swap. Thank God John wasn't hurt when that springer folded. I'm glad you guys made it back to Mass safe and sound. Now, on to the next build! All the very best -- W
Thanks for the info Walter!
@@TheEazyCo -- You got it! Godspeed Eazy Co! Oh yeah, in regards to that gal who John posed with at the end of the video -- what a doll!!!
If one was wanting to go with an extended springer today, how would you recommend to go about doing it? I would really appreciate the insight.
@@Full_Otto_Bismarck -- Thanks. IF I was to go with a springer, there are a few different routes to go: there are aftermarket companies which offer replica H-D inline springers. Some are overstock length and chrome plated. I think some guys in Sweden offer them. I'd do some extensive first -- to make sure any repop springer isn't make in China (or Taiwan). Anything coming from those two countries is questionable, at best. A lot of those springers are made from inferior material and some are tweeked from not being aligned properly in a fixture before welding. Anything from Sweden or America will cost more (natch). Moto Iron makes a decent aftermarket custom springer. TC Bros markets them. For more info regarding Moto Iron springers, check the video that TC Bros put out a few years back. In regards to a custom springer, my FIRST choice would be Paughco. They've been in business since 1969 or 1970 (I believe). They offer custom narrow springers and wider springers with tapered rear legs, which sort of resemble rear legs on H-D springers. Bear in mind that Paughco stuff is not cheap! All of their springers feature top quality materials, workmanship and finish (the BEST chrome!). Those same springers are heavier due to the use of solid steel in the rear legs. Sugar Bear makes a quality springer too -- if you want a custom look AND if you have deep pockets. Decades ago, Dick Allen, Freddie Hernadez, D&D Distributors (later Jammer Cycle) and Fury made top-shelf springers. P&P and Smith Bros and Fetrow and Earl Durfee used to build great girder forks. Lastly, I've never bought springers or girders from swaps. You just don't know how those forks were made and how many miles, potholes (and wheelies) they were put through. Above everything else, safety is your number one concern. Good luck with your project. Build right. Ride safe. -- W
@@walterfechter8080 Thank you much for taking the time to respond. I've wanted a bike with a springer front end for a long time but had heard the horror stories about the bad ones gone wrong like you had mentioned. Looking to start gathering the bits and bobs to put together my own bike down the road, gonna be a long term project i think, beer pockets and champagne taste ya know? 😆
Once again, much appreciated, and ride safe!
A bad weekend for alot of brothers. Glad yaw made it back in one piece.
That red bike needs a much shorter frontend. It's a death trap right now. Great effort getting it going again after the frontend decided to quit on ya.
Never
"choppers" tend to be an expressive statement of our selves or what we imagine our selves to be. Bought or built, function and safety will/can get in the way of the very thing/things that defines the chopper. Ride Free
I’ve had crazy nights at the shop but what you guys did here was WILD! Well done and good on you keeping good spirits…
The journey was real, I love the deal, strip the forks to bare shiny metal & gloss coat it to seal, You was down in Dayton & salvaged it son, Bikes & Beards would have whimpered, Turned tail and run, (Bikes & Beards can't build a bike in thesis, The Easy Company builds bikes like Jesus!
Bikes and beards is for gays
'to overcome adversity is to experience the full delight of existence'
oMMM !.
Now's a good chance to change the rake and drop the front of the frame down, cut that sucker and throw a good wedge in it and weld that bugger up and change or raise your handlebars for a little more safe clearance.
I would see what you're looking at there is an original Harley Springer from the 1950s or earlier and they welded it up in chromed it......
Man this was a trip and a half! Glad you guys made it there and back! You both never fail to entertain!
About Florida... what I did on my vacation... drove... broke springer... bought springer...built springer in famous HD shops... won 🏆 trophy .. broke trophy 🏆.. drove hundreds of miles.. bromance with his buddies 💕 got home to build more choppers .. got an A on Essay..
That's so cool, you can take advantage of everything in the USA, there's hardly anything here and it's extremely expensive
Looks like y'all had an adventure! Keep em coming! ✌
Murphys law! I'm glad no one got hurt! Keep the wheels turning and the beavers grinning! 😀
That is sweet your in the original daytona bike shop harly dealer that is where daytona bike week started .that is cool to actull go to bike week and work in the harly dealer
Dude just let slip that they invented the XR in the backroom 😳
Holy history month Batman!!!
You guys are my heros. You guys are great. Thanks for another great video.
Considering how big this became on the gram I expect every shop will be smooshing choppers next year in creative ways just for the subs haha
Drew to the rescue! He helped me out on a few sketchy things on the Ironhead chop!
Now that is a 100% period correct chopper from the 70's. When bikes could snap in half just from turning around in a parking lot.
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s
Congrats guys. You deserve the award. Love y’all’s style.
Daytona Beach Biketoberfest 2022 is coming. October 13-16, 2022.
Looking forward to seeing you there. Next time test ride the bike before the trip.
Daytona Beach Bike Week 2023. Mar 3, 2023 - Mar 12, 2023
cool history on that freakshow fab building
You can have that fixed by halfway through the day pop the front end off how long does that take an hour.
Run it to the local welder and will it back together...
Damn no idea you came to Willie’s!! Was working at the Custom Destruction tent!
Dudes!....that was just pure fuckin awesomeness!
DUDE! TAKE US ON SWAP MEAT SEASON. I can't wait to see Craig swap his meat wiff other dudes! BRO! I'M SO STOKED!
Swap "meat" lmao
When i first seen the short of this i had to clich thinking it was a build iv pictured this hapening on theas chopers with rake
This probably looks even more old school now with that crazy rake lol
Floor Jack handle works great for hammering bearings in place. Lol.
Keys is not real Florida, let me show you round ocala! Lol😂
It’s sucks when shit breaks! You guys did a great job of getting fixed up and into the show. Anything can happen when your out in the Mother!🤣
Here comes the German with the index finger, shit welded, insert a sleeve first, with an extended springer, glad you didn't drive yourself to death. Good luck for next time. :-))
Nice find on the springer. Great video!
Guys, I've been waiting for this vid. It really sucks that this happened, but at least you have a good story.
You guys rock! So cool ive found ya channel
You guy’s got me hooked on this video. First one I watched
Thanks for watching!
Freakshow Fabrication to the rescue!!!! Drew is first class!
What a hell of an adventure, swap meet saves the day. Permanent smile the whole video. 😎👌
Next time try warming up those bearings on the gas grill to about 200 degrees or so. They should slip right on when they are hot
Actually a good idea 🤯
Glad u Nuts made it (survived ) Daytona !! Much Respect fr. East Coast Canada👌😃
I'm so glad that I didn't have to hear that you crashed and burned. It's just parts and ya made it back home.
one of my favorite videos yet
Congratulation on the win guys, fucking awesome video ✌
Fucking thing looks crazy love it
As a 6'7 350 rider, this is a fear of mine when it comes to riding choppers. I've often wondered if these front ends would break
Why I always get a springer with rear leg all the way thru.. Hardbody is one of the good ones..
Somebody's holdin' some knuckle cases. Don't give up.
Man… that sucks.. the springer breaking off like that… that’s just like my luck haha… I subscribed buddy…
Had a blast at Bike Week had a Airbnb off Atlantic ,rode the Loop caught some Rays and didn't want to come back to Ohio ! LOL but alas I'm home !You guys are just way down to Earth and I'll burn a steak on the grill with ya anytime.
best outro ever.
Fuxk yeah man, I loved this vid...lol.. Went last year for my first time and threw together a springer softail (never even rode a springer before) together an test rode it for the 1st time just like you guys did. Lol. Mine didn break tho but spent alot of time in the swap meet on meeting alotta interesting ppl less to say lol aways Daytona was an EXPERIENCE that I'll never forget.
Wish y'all showed more footage but I get it. Lol
Loved the video you guys ✌
2:06 LOL HONESTLY DOES LOOK BADASS NOW PUT THE KICKSTAND DOWN
I’m so unsurprised that happened lol. I’ve always thought that choppers would do this 😂
Oh, I paid my storage off.
You guys aren't scoring my bike.
Sorry.
Maybe I'll have you stick it together though.
It's an interesting build, and, I'm local.
We don’t call it the Dirty South for nothing bro. Wish i could have seen you guys there.
The best chopper dudes on youtube, hands down!!!
The early posting of this video says I need a break from partying ha ha🤣
Just didnt party late enough....
They should get a Denvers choppers springer that wouldn't be the case. Call Mondo he'll hook you up.
Finally iv been waiting for this video
Nice rebuild guys
Well shit if it was going to happen couldn't have been in a better place haha swap meets and good people to help. You lucked out
Congratulations you really experienced Florida
It was nice to meet you! Florida not so much
This is Real.
I could say that the Old School is now the Young School. Luv the channel
Glad you're safe!! Wow.
Cowboy up & keep it rigid
my grandma s front porch raillooked just like that sissy bar.
I have wondered why the logo has a pineapple. Just found out it's cuz you guys are in the lifestyle. Noice
Life is always an Adventure. Ride or Die.
Id get home and find a suger bear for it that will be soo cool if you had a suger bear front end
made my day! you guys are awesome!
We are the only creatures on earth that can see a 3 faucet parts washer and just marvel at it 😂😂
It’s very cool
Well at least you broke down where you could get the parts you needed
Good idea. Let's go to a swap meet & buy another old 50+ year old OEM springer or used old aftermarket custom front end with no history of questionable condition and slap it on & call it good yeah?
Genius
@@TheEazyCo 🤣🤣
It's OK. Mother Nature's Law of Natural Selection will sort all of this out just fine....
Yea tuff bike week for fatalities and rain on occasion!! I didn’t run into you guys but was close I’m sure ! Live and ride free!! 🇺🇸
How uncomfortable do you want your Bike to be?
YES
Yall should go to Myrtle Beach bike week
up even higher gonna be hard to fill the tank to the top now!
Thanks Florida.
The road provides…
My dad invented the xr750 while high on mushrooms at Ascot. That guys a liar. Or my dad could've been yanking my chain but I'm running with it.
I have made tons of new friend when bikes broke. :) It´s a bonding experiment.
Shit im looking for a springer but i don’t want it too brake like that one
Most excellent adventure dudes!
Smarts would have just found a welder and welded the original tubes back on and called it good.
We don’t have that
Worth while ending. Glad the chopper gods helped.
