You find me a vintage Harley that just goes together I will call you a liar!! Nothing ever goes to plan ever! When I put my knuck together and the frame and engine fit together and didn't need to be shimmed I was convinced it was some sort of curse/black magic! great works guys.

Really cool video! Ever heard of ASMR?? Well I'm a gear head and the sound of bolts sliding into their hole and the sound of the transmission plate being mocked up are soo soothing to my ears. I ride an 01 Fatboy. My motor is completely torn apart on the work bench right now. Really love seeing how guys are still working on old iron. I'll build my chopper one day and join the chopper community when the stars align Keep wrenching!

Anyone can assemble a motorcycle in a day. But truly building a chopper takes years. Real choppers are created by their owners/riders, and take their form and individual characteristics over time.

In the 70's we called a chopper a motorcycle with a long extended front end. I really don't know what this generation calls a chopper. What I see there is merely a cruiser.

So you assemble a vintage bike. This is not a chopper build as you make no mods to frame rake @ trail, nor downtube extension. Wft?
