"Pawn Stars" follows three generations of the Harrison family as they assess the value of items coming in and out of their Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas, from the commonplace to the truly historic.

[@ChessCo.1]

Hahahahaha. The look on Chumlees face after Corey agrees to 13500$.

[@59jaguar]

The last place I’d sell a vintage Harley is to a pawn shop .

[@grantmccabe8966]

Absolutely the pawn shop is the last resort, their mark up is high and they pay low.

[@DixiePokerAce]

Most people that go to this shop just want to be on TV.

[@nathanbuck8352]

To be fair, I wouldn’t sell a used tuna can to a pawn shop lol.

[@rudygracia5573]

I saw A LOT of vintage Harley's for sale in pawn shops,in Vegas a couple of years ago.This pawn shop ain't the only place in town.I'm sure MOST of those customers probably thought the same thing."The last place I'd ever"..."I'll never"....etc.I've found SOO many nice things in pawn shops over the years;I'm mighty glad THOSE people hocked THOSE items!!

[@caypiranha1383]

My first thought as well.

[@bruceforsman4812]

"Do you mind" every one says yes when the mean no... every single time.

[@nickfaulkner4808]

The guy selling this bike is my buddy Mark little do people know the expert they brought in Chris is also friends with Mark but pawn stars won’t tell you that 😂😂

[@fortred735]

Seems like something was up the way they edited that piece when he mentioned his expert. And then Corey did a voiceover saying that the guy rebuilds Harleys. I sort of thought that the guy had made some comment like you're not going to bring in Chris are you? Or something. Corey popped in with that voiceover for some reason.

[@dadvibes8861]

Best I can do is the old man’s dentures and a half can of soda. And I’m still taking a huge risk!

[@alloverdaplace2043]

Chum Lee's reaction at the end like wtf Corey you just overpaid

[@onewheelisbetterthan2]

He wanted the bike said it was going to have to be repainted. This dude just got himself a deal on a motorcycle.

[@martinbouvier8734]

Lowballing is what these guys do. I wouldn't have sold it to them for that.

[@thatkiddevon7608]

The bike retails for 15k, he got a great offer at 13.5, especially considering that it’s for his personal collection

[@TimdogQ]

“What’s the difference between an FL and an EL🤔?” If ever you questioned if this show is scripted lol

[@ddmau7995]

Cory,you did good on that 51 PAN . The paint and pinstripes were true to the era. My buddy just bought a 1965 PAN,in boxes for $6000.00 New cylinders and top end,no carb =$500.00 and no inner or outer primary . Hey ,you guys going to sell the "old mans" roadster? Let me know,thanks.

[@NightHawk420]

I like how they say.."we gotta paint it" like that's yo problem

[@zapdite9410]

Guy stands there for 3 minutes, hears is started, says yeah its pretty mechanically sound. Wut

[@kinzdarell5447]

a good mechanic can tell if the engine runs good or not just by the sound.

[@angelsaldivar8795]

I don't think the word "sound" means "sound 🔊" in this context

[@jimwortham8634]

But said it show never knew how it got on TV

[@u.s.militia7682]

How can someone ride a bike and not be a good mechanic on them? Ridiculous. 🇺🇸

[@bouncingsoul777]

I was thinking the same thing and I think the fat kid in the show knows more about bikes than he's letting on. The "can I bring in an expert" shtick is likely done to get the ball rolling on the haggling, since it's supposedly a disinterested party. However, I have a feeling the experts the pawn shop likes to use wouldn't get many call backs if their appraisals were constantly on the higher side lol

[@tp5776]

Corey: I'm not a good mechanic. [struggle is enough just lifting my feet to walk]

$13,000 is actually a great price for something the guy says is only worth $15,000.

[@albertalves3693]

Wouldn't you let the "expert" test ride the bike?

[@duomaxwell2293]

behind the scenes, Chumley takes the bike out and rights it off after the bike was just brought...

[@MrRick-md7wm]

so he buys & sells them, but would like it for his own collection, which to me means he should know alot about older Harleys, why call in a "expert "

[@TheJayman318]

Good buy❤

[@scrappiron6307]

The expert doesn't know bikes. The appeal of a Harley is the unique sound of the engine due to the engines design.

[@skimbeeble6143]

@@chicagojonesy google the expert. He is a true Harley expert and a custom bike builder. He knows what hes talking about. And idk what you're talking about with engine sound. I've heard every harley engine back to the late 60s and they all sound the same. Obnoxiously loud. I like certain loud vehicles, such as V8s and diesels, but Harleys are just obnoxious. People only buy them because of the name. If Harley put their name on a crotch rocket, people would buy it because of the name.

[@pychohobo1832]

The smaller pan is same size as the knuckle. I believe it 62inch? And the knuckle was the first enclosed non flathead Harley. Not the Pan Pan was the first 74 inch non flat head. Just fyi. The UL was a 80 inch flathead and VL was the 74 inch Flathead. And thier was the 45" also The Harley stayed at the 74" until 1980. In 1980 you could get the shovel ( nose cone) in 80 inch. The shovel started in 1965, with the bottom end of the pan and knuckle. In 1970 the lower end was changed to the nose cone. Also this was the first year the vin was on the frame and motor. Prior to this Harley numbers were only on the motor. In 1984 the evo came out ( block head) but the nose remained. The nose cone stayed on past 1987. This means that you could put knuckle heads on a bottom end past 1997. And you could put evo upper on a lower end of a knuckle. And mismatches of all those between. Frame wise you could bolt right in any knuckle to evo engine into a evo frame. And ANY Evo or older engine into a a Panhead frame. Also the UL and VL bolt right into any from frame from thier own, knuckle up to the evo frame. A lot of people go crazy over the pan. I like the evo, and the shovel is also a good engine. However, the knuckle and pan are the real oil leaders. This is because the cases are made as a set . And many sets have been mismatch which causes oil leaks. Add to this the scoring of someone useing a flathead screw drive to split the cases. This can be said of the pre 1970 shovel as well. Another FYI. 74" equals 1200cc, 80 is 1340cc, and 62 is 900 (or 883) 45" is a 750 ( k model and service car) and I do not recall the cubic inch 1000cc Sportster. And yes the panhead and shovelhead and 1200 sporty are all 74". And yes the 900 ironhead and the 883 evo sporty are the same cubic inch. However the 900s shift and brake were on opposite sides of what they are now. I believe the K model, which is the precursor to the sporty, also had backwards shifts. This was to combat the European bikes. Also the K model was a flathead. BUT. You can swap the upper of a 900 sporty to one. Many K models became Sportster. So you can in effect. Take a 1940 knuckle, put evo heads and cylinders and make a 1940 80" or 1340. You can also swap that transmissions between all these non sportsters if you change to the primer for the trans. So you can have a 1940. Knuckle with a 6 speed trans and electric starter. Or a 1936 VL flathead with a 6 speed trans and starter. And the most a used Harley is worth is $6000. And a new one is the toilet paper you just wiped your bottom with. Harley many times throughout history has stubbed thier nose up at loyal Harley owners.
