Born Free Motorcycle Show - Full length Film

This is an extensive look at Born Free 4 brought to you by: www.lowbrowcustoms.com
When motorcycle aficionados Mike Davis and Grant Peterson conceived their Born Free experience, they had no idea their little bike show would grow into the grandest and most eagerly anticipated celebration of custom motorcycle style and culture in the world. Born Free's location in Southern California - the heart of American motorcycle customizing - only intensifies this event's impact and allure. "Born Free 4" gives a behind-the-scenes peek into the planning and craftwork required to bring hundreds of motorcycle-industry players, 3,000 show bikes and over 10,000 bike riders and rabid fans to the rolling hills and green pastures of SoCal's beautiful Santiago Canyon for a day of music and machinery among great friends.

The artistry that goes into these bikes, you would think, is something that could be appreciated by everyone from any walk of life. These builders have every reason to be proud, very proud.

[@SAXONWARLORD1000AD]

I LIVED IN LOS ANGELES FOR OVER 27 YEARS AND FINALLY GOT TO BORN FREE A FEW MONTHS BEFORE I MOVED BACK HOME IN 2019 - WHAT A GREAT SHOW , WISH I'D HAVE GOTTEN A FEW MORE IN

[@mikebowers518]

Real Nice Show! Come back east with one!

[@wmwilson5226]

Love it Love it Love it. I'm 63 been riding everything you could imagine since I was 9. So really nice to see builders who love what their doing instead of doing it for the money so refreshing. Great concept, man I wish I would have thought of that. Great Awesome job guy's please keep it up. I live right outside Philly and haven't been to Sturgis yet ( my dream ) but now I'm thinking you just gave me my new dream. Going to talk to my Boy's and try to put something together and hopefully see you on the next one. Thanks for making an ole biker happy 😄

[@InTheFleshInc]

Just found this channel and I am already hooked love old school vintage motorcycles...

[@dasfantastico2085]

seems like the Harvest Classic show has been doing exactly that for years

[@christophersmith7714]

A great hour watching biker bros! Really great entertaining vid! 5 Stars!

[@thinkandrepent3175]

Love what you guys got going on out there. Hope to make it there someday!

[@michaelsmith1094]

I loved that Japanese guy at about 9 mins. so excited ,like a kid the day before Christmas.

[@davidpoulsbo6835]

I have a good feeling about cycle building after watching all this U Tubing .I love it thanks!

[@peterpyke1213]

LOOKS LIKE A GREAT WEEKEND.ENJOYED THAT

[@unchained20000000]

Like the one guy said, I couldn't tell you what my favorite bike is because you forget the last bike you saw cause the next bike pushes it out of your head. That's why the 1970's term (FAR OUT)! summed up that era of customization.

[@wmcbarker4155]

no shit !!!

[@jayclose1945]

There's a bike in nova scotia built with 2 motors, it's been around for awhile, built by a guy named Mike who owned toads cycle in Dartmouth NS, neat thing is the motors are side by side and one of them runs backwards from original meaning alot of parts in the motor had to be custom made.

[@nicklisoire]

Great show! Look forward to the next one. Lowbrow continue to make more please 👍👍👍

[@freebird7284]

Awsome!, i made it out in 2017 and it was great, going back again as soon as i can, thanks for what you do!

[@astreet339]

I’m from Tennessee and I came across you guys about 2 weeks ago and digging y’all style of custom bikes! Watched all the Bonneville speed week edits and the History of Lowbrow customs, keep up the good work fellas!

[@GarySmythe]

That's a beautiful two engine Triumph you got there Lowbrow!

[@wmcbarker4155]

yea man !!!

[@xeverettx2564]

9:57 Caleb Owens 76 FLH is probably my favorite bike featured on here! Such a unique look for that type of bike. You can blast around town or take it to the drag strip. It just has a tuff look to it and I love those old AMF tanks with the very 70’s look with the choice of colors for the tanks striping and logo against a plane all one color tank!! So well done brother!!!!

[@deckerhand12]

I am working on making my sporty more of my style. I am looking for Comfort and style along with a bigger tank it’s a slow go but it’s getting there. Videos like this help me get my creative juices going. The guy from NJ never been to a place in NJ called chatter box. I grow up about half an hour from south Hackensack. There is big groups that meet up you just have to look. No state has an event like born free. That’s why it’s so great

[@annajeannettedixon2453]

one of the best frames is the featherbed and a knucklehead and box in the featherbed frame would make the best cafe racer

[@sixstringcarnage]

Great videos guys! Thanks

[@Roadghost88]

I like the understated stylized look of some of these bikes. Reminds me of bikes I used to see on the street in the 1970s. They don't rely on flashy chrome, engraving and complex paintjobs to get their message across. They still have a garage-builder appearance that gives them a tasteful appeal. Don't get me wrong, I love the big spendy glitzy bikes at a lot of shows, but these bikes show that's not all there is. Very nice.

[@davesleyer9393]

I need to get out of Florida! I love how this show defies biker stereotypes. Born free looks like a lot of fun

[@josephlewis7166]

Nice to meetcha my first time tuning in awsum i luv bike s i have 2 myself one needs work so yea rite on cool gd stuff

[@SAXONWARLORD1000AD]

JUST FOR THE FACT YOU CAN'T SPLIT LANES - WHY WOULD ANYONE OWN A BIKE WHERE YOU CANT SPLIT LANES ?? - JUST GET A JEEP

[@willymiranda5537]

Love TRIUMPHS / 1st bike !!!!!!!!😎!!!! Great pics / love the builds / creativity / personal touches that make it urs & special ⁉️⁉️😎🙏👊🦅🏍⚒☠️⚡️🌎🇺🇸💫

[@woongtv-naturehealing273]

The frame of the bike is so pretty and the whole bike looks like a piece of art. I am glad and honored to see your channel again. From Woongkham, a South Korean KZbinr. 🤗🤗🤗👍👍👍

[@arthurcgans8198]

A huge Kudos for leaving the FLH stock. As much as I love choppers these have become rare and I love to see them stock. Great job on the chopper also.

[@erikmc6385]

Absolutely. Some things we can appreciate, just the way they are/were

[@GottliebGoltz]

That is how they built.

[@abrahamelliott9806]

Cool video ✌️ I went to the first born free it was amazing!!! After that got a little too commercial and trendy for me but some amazing bikes have been there for sure.

[@canadianloon6433]

All cool bikes

[@chopperides]

At all of the Born Free shows the stars are on the field. You could do 2 hours out there and it would not be enough. Try showing some of those bikes on future videos. The builder bikes are cool but garage builds, some of those were way cool!

[@openroadandoutdoors9716]

love it

[@nobodysreview6137]

I built a couple choppers and took them on road trips, my back started bothering me, i took a year off from riding and bought a Street Glide and i'm enjoying it, you can still do mods and make it your own, i put s 23 inch wheel on it and gonna travel and enjoy. Bikes are bikes, i still like Choppers but the roads up here in Chicago are too rough.

[@evosportychop8332]

This video was like seeing a Street Chopper magazine from 2012 come to life. So cool

[@SAXONWARLORD1000AD]

Now, whenever I see old sleds I can't help but wonder how many of those parts came from bikes I had stolen in LA back in the late 70's.

My kind of show my kind of people

[@xeverettx2564]

I have got to make the trip to this show! Every year I say I am but someone in the crew will pussyfooted out or ha e an emergency come up. I just don’t wanna ride that far without 2 or 3 fellas. I wanna bring my first ever bike which is also my first hard tail bobber. It’s a 1979 Kawasaki KZ1000. It’s super dependable but just having backup would be nice! I’d love to bring my knuckle but that’s a far trip to ride then get a good ways there and have it breakdown and miss the show. Eventually I wanna do a cross country ride hitting all the big fest and events on my knuckle like Giddy Up, Born Free, Mana Tried, Fuel Cleveland, Brooklyn, so I and so forth. But this next year def gonna do born free on the Kawasaki! It’s stripped down basic, badass, fast as fuck so it’ll be lots of fun! Anyways love the video and the festival looks like the thrill of a lifetime. As long as theirs shows like this Sturgis will never make it on the list. All the footage I ever see seems like it’s just new baggers and Orange County style choppers with every piece of chrome they can possibly fit on a bike, with absurdly large wheels and lo pro tires. Meanwhile I’d role up with stock wired spike wheels painted black from a 39 knuckle head with what looks like car tires with 200 sidewalls on a 13 inch rim lol. And it’s seems to be a lot of sloppy old men being Percy to young topless bar maidens with giant fake tits that look like two zeppelins in a dead heat hahaha LOL!!!! Yeah so I’ve gone off on quite a digression here so please forgive me and I will see you in 2022 at Born Free 14!!!!

[@InTheFleshInc]

I’m looking for a step up chopper type seat that will somehow fit on my 2002 HD sportster 883C , I can figure out how to mount it I am wanting it more for support on my lower back then for looks but I have the extra sissy bar just need a seat person to direct me maybe they have an old one in stock they will part with or trade?

[@lowbrowcustoms]

If you have a swing arm style sportster this seat will work for what you are asking: www.lowbrowcustoms.com/collections/motorcycle-seats/products/sullys-customs-traditional-king-and-queen-seat-black-h-pleat-for-1982-2003-sportsters if you are building a chopper. you are going to need to make a seat pan and get it custom made.
