I'm 70 now was raised building choppers whatever way cool this was overwhelming kind of like going into a candy store thank you for taking the time to take us back and make us drool over somebody else's hard not to covet 1 old school bike builder to another thanks again

So happy you enjoyed the video , Randy ... I'm sure you've got some great stories to tell , as well !

Should be a national museum for the future!!!!!❤👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

no doubt about it ... thanks for watching !

[@thejerseyj5479]

This place needs to be preserved. Put it on the National Historical Sights!

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

I did ask JD the mechanic if Nick had a plan in place to pass the torch when the time comes but he didn't say ... I do hope this place lives on for generations to come . It's not only a cool collection of motorcycles but also a part of our countries history .

Unreal collection of American gold thank God for guys like Nick that kept it and didn't ship it overseas.

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Great point Frankie , too often we hear of these old classics heading to Japan or Sweden , be it cars or bikes … as if we need more of a reason to love Nick !

[@robertnauss4815]

That Nick dude is the King of motorcycles hands down ...your video blew my mind taking it all in ...so many bikes n parts n signs...n history ... unbelievable...thanks bud...

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

You ain't kidding Robert , Nick is a gem ... so happy you enjoyed the video.😃

[@joedyer8824]

I remember when Dale from wheels through time was at Nick's what in barn, and Frank and Mike from American pickers. Great video keep up the great work.

[@daledahlman9629]

Super nice Harleys museum thanks for sharing

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Glad you enjoyed the video , Dale... stay tuned for more interesting people places & things to come 😀

[@abefroman5191]

Being self taught in Nick's time meant something else before the internet. He knows more than you ever will and will still admit that he doesn't know but knows how to find out. He's a legend for sure.

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

You got that right , Abe 😃

[@steveperry1344]

i can't believe what i just saw, unreal collection, thanks for showing it to us.

[@palmtreecorpse]

True American history, I'm a young dude and I'm trying to do my part to keep this shit alive. We can't let this stuff die out with these old cats, carry on the torch. Nick's a rad dude, living the real American dream

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Thanks for watching ... so happy you enjoyed the video . Us older dudes appreciate you carrying that torch , keep the passion alive & pass it on !

[@Fatboylife2006]

Nick has everything someone needs. I live in south jersey and stop there quite a bit

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

no matter how many times you visit you can't help but come back again & again ... thanks for watching Dyna Life 👍

[@stretchman490]

Incredible. So much awesome. My parents had a 70s glide, which they rode for 10 years, until Gerry passed. They inspired me to ride, and I have been doing so since 99. I am noob compared to this. What an amazing tour. Thanks for posting this.

[@DH432hrtz]

Nick is that guy who knows things instinctively about people! He's walking knowledge, and he's a treasure . I'm in Canada I knew a guys / gal's folk like him always my favorite kind of people. 'He's forgot more then most will ever know' Cheers Doug 😎

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

You're right about that Doug , Nick is a gem , a real historian where it comes to all things made in America on 2 wheels ... as you can see from the video , he's a great story teller, as well 😃 Cheers to you , as well my friend... thanks for watching 🙏

[@DH432hrtz]

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Great story , thanks for sharing! Nick is definitely one of the coolest guys around...he needs to write a book about his experiences.

[@JonV-r7q]

WOW!!!!! Thanks for letting us know about Nick's. What a cool place. Nick's would make a great local museum.

[@paulfennimore4078]

As always amazing video , love that place , if you r ever doing a rebuild and you r from the area its well worth the visit , its a lesson in time and history there , and any nut bolt or piece you need its there for the most part , nick knows were (even though it looks to be chaos) anything is in that entire place , and if you have only been there once he will remember you without a doubt.

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Thanks so much Paul , I appreciate it🙏 You couldn't be more correct about the look of the shop & the fact that Nick knows exactly where everything is lol... he's one of a kind & a super nice guy , as well 😃

[@danielrothe3902]

A real time capsule .I had a neighbor that built trikes made with keg gas tanks and a casket in the back . Incredible design back in the 70's.

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Things were so much cooler in those days as far as I'm concerned . Thanks for watching , Daniel , I'm happy you enjoyed the video 😃

[@raymondrathbun8688]

Looks like awsome place you could spend all day there and still not see it all thanks for sharing.

Amazing collection, is this place a museum?, or is anything for sale?, absolutely unbelievable collection

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

It’s actually a bike shop , they sell parts & service bikes . They do have some bikes for sale but none of the bikes upstairs are for sale as far as I know … I guess you could say it is a museum.

[@charley22123]

Cool collection , thanks

[@duckman2667]

Thank you for sharing, there is a similar place here in Oregon I go to. Though I have not been there in at least a year. It's called Jeff's American Classics in Dundee Or.

You and I are on the same page Brother. Well done! Enjoyed the hell out of the video. Subscribed.

[@Zulutime44]

There are some real gems there, total value in the millions. They are at risk of disaster jammed into that old building, probably without fire protection or even insurance. A new generation of collectors needs to descend on Nick with truckloads of cash and rescue these amazing machines. I'm sure there are a few he would refuse to sell, I know the feeling.

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Nick has been around a long time , he’s no fool … I’m sure he’s fully insured against the unthinkable happening to his incredible collection . I’ve never spoken to him about selling any of the bikes in the “museum” but I have to believe he’s been approached more times than he can count by those waving a fistful of cash in his face .
