1 day to build the bike, 2 days to test it and then we took it on a 1200 mile road trip to barber vintage festival. Pretty good for an ol Yamaha xs650. Hope you guys enjoyed this one, it took a lot of work! Keep it weird y'all #shadetreearmy

My father came home from Vietnam in 1968 to nothing. His parents thought he would never come back so they sold all his belongings. He had a 1968 BSA and rode it from Michigan to Alaska to work on the Cook Inlet on an exploratory drill rig. His story’s about the trip and the work are epic. Wish he had a go pro camera in those days.

When I was younger I made the run your making and many others. Sometime alone, sometime with a gal on the back, sometimes with friend or two and others with my dad riding next to me. Slept on the ground at night and rode all day long. My bikes have sat in a shec for few years because the needs of my kids, work and agings parents always put them too far down the list. Sadly I list my old man last year and the last time I rode was next my best friend at the front of his funeral procession. Thanks for being who you are and reminding me of who I was. Enjoy it while you can! Life is too short to miss having a little adventure. If you are ever in Wesley Chapel and need a pick up, loaner tool or a shop to wrench in hit me up.

Barber Vintage should be on every motorcyclists bucket list. I've been several times and prefer Barber to Daytona. The swap meet is epic so I always take my pickup truck because I score so many parts. Bring cash and your shopping list. If you have deep pockets the auction is cool. Barber is now the largest motorcycle museum in the world so reserve at least a FULL day just for the museum, more if you're a serious enthusiast because it's packed. The basement machine shop has tours and a couple hundred machines awaiting restoration.

One thing I love about the harley near me in Minnesota is I had a Honda shadow that needed new crush gaskets. I called everywhere local to me no one had them. Indian refused to look even though I had the part with me. They just wouldn’t do it. Last ditch effort I went to a Harley dealership thinking the would just laugh in my face. The guys back there tore up their back room looking for a crush gasket my size. Unfortunately they couldn’t find one. But that level of dedication is the reason why I sold my Honda shadow and bought a Harley.

When I was still in the Navy stationed in Norfolk Va. back in the mid 1970's, I owned and rode a 1948 EL Panhead jockey shift chopper. About twice a year I rode it home to Delray beach and back to Virginia on leave. Almost a 2000 mile round trip. I maintained it well and never had a problem. Also back then, parts of I-95 weren't completed and you had to do a bit of two lane secondary roads also. It is good to see young people doing this and actually riding. Also I am over 60 and still ride a Panhead, this one I built from scratch five years ago. It's a 1949 EL tank-shift foot clutch. I also own a 1968 XLH, a 1996 Road King and a 2019 Low Rider. My favorite bike? The Panhead. None of them are garage queens, I ride every day in Florida.

Binged today by rewatching all the chopper build videos. This series was hugely fun to see again with all of Josh’s suffering while he learned and progressed to be able to do more and more along the way. A lowly cafe racer becomes a classic old school chopper that immediately goes on a 1,200 mile trip. Josh is triumphant oh hell yes!

I'll deffinately watch more of your channel and in case you see this comment, I want you to know that I really enjoyed it.
