$1,000 Says We Can Start This ‘48 Panhead In 1 Hour

[@danielmorris3687]

After the first attempted kick over I was yelling from my living room chair that you need to raise the inner primary a little bit and tighten it real good!! so it won't slip back down and let the outer rub. Had a '51 Pan with 80" shovel top end and on a long and fast ride mine slipped and left a noticeable mark in the outer. Loved riding that rigid in my 30s but my lower back curses me for it now that I'm close to 60. ✌🇨🇦

[@AdamMalcolm96]

Might be time for a springer seat lol

[@TaterGrabbinBass]

That bike looks amazing, nothing is easier on the eyes than a clean old school chop.

[@chopperchopster]

narrow frisco style chop. Thats a nice sled right there!

[@TeddCookerly]

"Buy the Prism Petcock on the site" stop telling me what to do, I already bought it, Geesh guys!

[@Anuskasv0]

First year Panhead, doesn't get much cooler than that.

[@JamesCouch777]

Love the old school look 👍 I'll have to go back and watch Easy Rider.

[@walterfechter8080]

That Pan is right and tight! I like that 8 over (?) Showa narrow glide with the brake tabs welded onto the lower sliders to accommodate a hamburger hub/brake. I've always liked NorCal-styled choppers. Ride safe.

[@whatyoumakeofit6635]

What an awesome bike. When i day dream about disappearing off into the wild blue yonder on a chopper, I picture myself being on a bike just like this one. Ive have that day dream nearly every day of my life since I was about 6 years old (not exaggerating), and I'm 42 years old now. What ana amazing bike guys. You really nailed it on this one. Great work

[@joeoregan170]

Don't give up dreaming I got a 1960 flh after 50 years and 20 years of evos

[@luciang1820]

What a sweet bike... Alien tank & chromed frame (/chromed everything) look trick af

[@Makermook]

Why would you put the ignition right next to the exhaust pipe? That looks like a great way to burn the hell out of your fingers.

[@henryiswynn2756]

But I GOTTA love you are not stupid but you can buy their starter LEVER for tight spots !! My fishtails , too tight. But prism putting up a fix with cooler than HOT fingers!!! Check it out under their DIY ♡#!

[@popsfitch7938]

Fantastic! Watching your computer movie brought back memories of the best years of my life. Young men fixing and building motorbikes. Its great to see that somethings just don’t change. I was lucky enough to work with some wonderful mechanics in my almost 30 plus years in the shops. The Motor Company attempted to convert me into technician in 2000 so I figured it was time for me to finally roll my boxes to the truck and just putter in “my shop” at the house. That was a sad day for sure. I still work on my WA and my EVO chop (or bobber or what ever the kids call my motorbike now days) but it’s not like “back in the day”. Enjoy this time in your life’s, it goes by fast and ya don’t know when it will end. I look forward to tooling at the inter web to see more of your you tube movies. You guys are not at all like the bs west coast chopper joke show. (I watched the first episode and could not stand it. Not strapping a bike on the lift…….BS. Anyway I ramble like an old dude. Have fun, go fast, stay real, laugh at the shit. God Bless. Sincerely, Pops Fitch

[@anthonygreco1130]

Nice job, it started before 5 and that is what counts. Can always dial it in later.

[@ms1535]

Looks Great! Surprising that Linkerts and S&S carbs seem so similar.

[@wildchildlightning]

Really enjoy these longer vids, hope you keep them coming

[@aaronschmitz_]

Thousand bucks never sounded so good. Let’s goooooo 😎

[@johnvanbeek5671]

Nice bike. I would always kick a new build through with the sparkies removed to see if all is well. so much easier 😉

[@curtisharrison4837]

He made the bet,with the points in his pocket. I don't know I have seen chrome frame, nice.

[@frankflstf]

Great show bro you guys are solid badass keep it up

[@gasmann6746]

Lovin the vibe of this shop thank you 👍🏻🇦🇺

[@Rollin_7s]

You guys are great! I love your company’s story, I love the parts you sell. Keep it up, gentlemen! 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻

[@rickstout7626]

gas caps are different ....one side need vented cap

[@MARIOCARRILLO13]

PUT ON SOME BOOTS!!!!!

[@THEBIRDMAN9412]

how does one come into possession of such a badass machine? I want one!

[@mikebenoit6648]

Nice Bike Nice Job getting it to run

[@skgate]

i got a question for yall, i want to hardtail my shovelhead. Should i chop up the original frame(matching numbers ‘77)? or buy an aftermarket hardtail frame? thanks yall!

[@ms1535]

I don’t know about other states but in FL. All you need is a serialized motor. You can title it to any aftermarket frame you want. They don’t even ask about the frame. Edit: buy an aftermarket frame.

[@mickey-eq5vw]

cutting your frame ya'll have the numbers n your 100% the motor mounts will fit with existing frame

[@JamesCouch777]

I had a 1950 Hydra Glide when I was in high school. It had been a police bike and still had the lights and windshield. Loved that bike, just don't forget to retard the timing before kicking it or you would end up with a broke leg.

[@parrisstancell7834]

Who makes the seats on the shovelhead.

[@Auto_Junky]

Hey. Dumb question… why is the petcock tapered. And are all petcocks tapered?

[@ilovecarnitas]

That bike is super good looking! Tanks taper is sweet. Also if you read this, what is that truck search app you’re using?

[@PrismSupply]

Facebook marketplace!

[@shrederyoungblood69]

That’s a good lookin chopper

[@rwally3able]

Nice job!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@digger4904]

There used to be left and right side gas caps . One side didn't fit the other

[@canalmileduque]

O que vcs usam para vedar o torneira do tanque? A moto está incrível !!! parabéns!!!

[@mk4_mulac]

6:31 got me crackin up

[@richardharrold4357]

Might have helped if someone had left his frigging phone at home. Enjoyed the vid.

[@andypapastavros952]

BRO WHEN YOU COME TO CONNECTICUT YOU CAN START MY 51 CHOPPER PAN HEAD I HAVEN'T STARTED IN 12 YEARS 😏👍YOU GONE TO BREAK YOUR LEG FROM THE COMPRESSION IS NOT EASY 🤗😎🤣

[@ms1535]

You just need to tune it and retard the timer if it keeps kicking you back. I have a 48’, starts one or two kicks and never kicks me. Try an inexpensive Ed 2000 electronic timer. You’ll be surprised at how easy it will start.

[@ericburns319]

is it backyard choppers or PRISM here?

[@Rhysmoreton]

What bars are on the pan with split tanks guys?

[@PrismSupply]

We made them in-house!

[@Rhysmoreton]

@@PrismSupply Ah they look gooood!

[@DorianGreyskull]

That might be my favorite Harley shirt I ever seen.. and leads nowhere a fella might track one down?

[@leopoldoarellano1171]

You guys are high lol😂 I love it 💀

[@jamesleo2299]

What kind of gas tank is that is it a custom design

[@nathanielgoodwin8622]

Looking sweet

[@kroz2310]

Nothing prettier than a 48 panhead especially with some up sweet pipes and maybe an old school king queen seat with a high sissy bar! But regardless the bike looks great! I think some nice rabbit ear bars would look better than them z bars, just my opinion which don't mean squat, as long as she runs you can ride da sucka, ride on Brothers! What are y'all running a single seat with a p pad? Giddy up 🐎 ride on homie....

[@ellischatham7014]

I’m looking for that tshirt.

[@reinholddiederichs3781]

Traumhaft schön...!!!

[@ronaldcooper7609]

5 out on lo speed is correct. It will be rich so turn it in until the engine skips and then turn it out 5-10 clicks. To test if mixture is correct, retard spark and engine should run smoothly.

[@bigtimejc1]

Is it for sale or any others like this for sale?

[@PrismSupply]

Unfortunately, no.

[@MrBluoct]

Teamwork...

[@camftw6822]

I like jack 🤣🤣🤟

Who would in their right mind let these guys work on their bike. Its painful to watch at best.

do you have a French version? he cameraman moves too much should be more stable

Working real hard to lose a $1000, lol

[@johnnieguitar5724]

Sh** show? Perhaps…

[@MrJimmy1437]

Oh that ought to be a real joy to ride! No suspension, poor brakes, outdated engine, terrible handling etc

[@dbldbl_anmlstyle895]

Boo this man

[@MrJimmy1437]

@@dbldbl_anmlstyle895 Did i say something that was not true? You obviously have never ridden a modern bike like an FJR, a Honda St or many others! Maybe you have never ridden a chopper like the one in this video! A blind man could tell the tremendous difference !
