I freaking love it! Not raked out, not a cartoonish rear tire, I love the paint, the twisted frame tube, I absolutely love this bike!😍

[@bertzx9r894]

Gorgeous bike and nice to hear a mention of Billy Lane and the Late Great Indian Larry, may he R.I.P

[@andrewbinns3973]

Motorcycles and dogs, life’s finest things .

[@tomboyabit]

💯

[@jb-bu4vl]

That is the only reasonably attractive cam case chop I've seen after seeing so many attempts displayed.

[@TheDFM007]

The amount of Time, Energy, Patience & Skill required to build a bike like this is MasterClass level. I’m rebuilding the engine and re-painting mine with some minor welds for a new battery box and I can truly admire the craftsmanship. Bravo 👏

[@Roddy_Zeh]

Nothing like happy doggos. And bikes. And lads. And tomboys.

[@rizzo3689]

Always tuned in to biker build off when Indian Larry was on. He took building to another level and this is THE best tribute I've seen to him. The twisted down tube, dished tank, etc. It's perfect. I'm sure he would approve! Cheers from the states.

[@terrymott8581]

Soon as I saw that tank, I knew that inspiration!

[@georgefrazer2231]

Your channel does 'inspire' viewers. The finished motorbike looks beautiful. It has taken years of dedication to complete this labour of love. There is even new innovations built in. You never know what you can achieve and you certainly can rise to the challenge. If you enjoy what you are doing, anything can be achieved. You cannot put a 'price' on a work of art like this. A 'roadworthy' work of art.

[@LionelArnoux-u2g]

Vous etre splendide dans cette tenu ,mes pas pour faire de la moto 🏍️ elle est faite pour vous cette tenu vous être adorable 🤩🥰 comme ça ,et vous nous faites voir des avec des formes différentes pas trop mal merci pour toutes c'est belle moto que vous faites voir de belles vidéos et avec une très, très jolie tomboy a bit ❤🤘🌹👍 continuer comme ça vous dns votre élément

[@michaelcarson8534]

Ok wow! First off. That's a sexy fn chopper you have there. Love the ape hangers and flames, I'm a big fan of ape hangers and flame paint jobs. I really like how the rear fender complements the rear tire and the seat, they all blend together. The whole bike flows, truelly well thought out and put together.

[@Stevo736]

I like the fact hes inspired by Indian Larry. As mentioned below it's just a clean beautiful chopper without the over the top stuff that creeps in these days. It really is inspiring.

[@cruisinvt]

She went out for a ride and that was the last time we saw her... Beautiful bike😍👍

[@tomboyabit]

😂

[@superdinops]

This is beautiful. Enough said

[@charlesdavis9937]

Nice ride. That’s how I wanted mine to look like. Sold it before I could. I deal with chronic pain, so riding a rigid is out of the question. Beautiful girl, beautiful ride.

[@Ontheroad1100]

Very nice. Like rear mudguard. I was going to cut mine down during the rebuild but decided will wait for the next project instead.

[@dylanwestenskow6897]

Love the Indian Larry look!

[@brandonmacon3317]

🤘🇺🇸💯

[@jeanettewest]

If only it had suspension in the back; I don't know if I could take it, my kidneys would give out. Seriously, you look SO bad-assed on that bike. Can't wait 'till yours is finished. :)

[@walterfechter8080]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKaYkouXit-Kd8U -- Yes Jeanette, guys DO ride rigid framed choppers over distance. I did as well.

[@petxx8155]

😱NICE!!...but according to my humble "taste" ... this ATTRACTIVE Slim Chopper needs a BIG FAT LEATHER SEAT...which would bring her UP TO A "NEW LEVEL"...from ATTRACTIVE to GORGEOUSLY ATTRACTIVE!!💥💯💘👌👍👍 NICE WORK mate!!👏👏👏

[@glennaris1619]

I'm not a great fan of the chopper look but ,you can't help but,admire the high quality of workmanship the gentleman has put into the build. 😁🇬🇧

A gorgeous bike, thank you for this Vlog!

[@jeffjeff4477]

Cool bike

[@andrewd7586]

My brother-in-law here in Australia had a HD Shovel head he bought back in 1978. As a sign writer (old school), & as an artist, he turned his HD into a hard tail/rigid chopper. He painted the frame in a similar colour to this, candy apple red, with silver ghost flames. Luckily he lived then in Alice Springs, Northern Territory, which had quite good roads. Having said that I believe he only ran 5psi in the rear tyre to compensate for the bumps in the road!😖 As he is getting on in years he finally sold it after some 35 years of ownership & bought an Evo. 🤘🏼😎👍🏼🇦🇺

[@tonykeast9966]

Your experience building your own ride shows here, you are asking questions like a bike builder now. Clued up. It validates your thumbs up so much more when you know what's been done under a loveley paint job and appreciate the hidden effort as much as the visible stuff. Then getting to ride his irreplaceable labour of love... shows he had total confidence in you as a trusty rider too! I doubt you'd have got the key if he thought you were a fanny! 😎😂 Awesome job on this vid buddy, you won him over as much as his superb dogs 👌😃

You never stop surprising me !! Where and how do you keep finding all these talented people? Fantastic video interview of a wonderful bike. Please make a nasty video soon so I can use some of my bad words... 'cause i'm slowly running out of good words to use without repeating myself, lol😆!! Thanks for finishing off a good Sunday of bikes and biking for me.., roll on next Sunday eve👍.

[@tomboyabit]

No no no no no bad videos anymore. You can repeat yourself, copy - paste your compliments but only upwards I’m willing to go. I want you and everyone on my channel to finish a week in a good mood. No matter how hard the week was, how much everyone got to ride they bike, how good the weather was… This needs to be something good happening. Every week!

[@millinutz]

@@tomboyabit No, "copy - paste" is too easy.... no, you deserve more than that for all your hard work. Thanks again, you really are keeping things happy and exciting for us.

[@H10.]

Beautiful make more of (2nd person point of view) videos, like the 1st couple of seconds, that was really perfect one more thing, nothing comes close to an old vintage bike (Honestly everything vintage has its own spirit no matter what it is), the look, the sound, the rumble, that mechanical feeling of things and how you need to be present to address those small details here and there and you are one lucky Lady to be testing those Beautiful piece of art machines

[@tomboyabit]

I totally agree I am lucky to be so trusted. Will do. My operator is away for a some time and will see that type of footage a lot more I guess.

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

When she is riding that paint job on the gas tank really pops out. 😊

[@walterfechter8080]

This is English craftsmanship at its best. I'd keep the 39 mm frontend. You retained the front brake (smart). The fit and finish are amazing! Build right. Ride safe.

[@alstone5257]

WOW great looking bike!!! Tomboy_a_bit great video.

[@twitch8822]

Really really cool bike

[@КрасныйМилитарист]

Отличное видео! Очень красивый мотоцикл - ничего лишнего. Думаю Индеец Ларри оценил-бы.

[@tomboyabit]

У меня Токая же мысль. И спасибо за комплимент. 😊

[@bikerbrinrac]

That's a really cool chopper 😎🏍️🤘 The paint scheme, metal work, leather seat & pipes look amazing. Yes the airbag would be nice with that rigid frame. A springer front end would be really cool too and just finish it off. Looks like it was fun riding around on it. 😀

[@papa6666]

Awesome ride

[@tomboyabit]

🖤

[@rogerthat10-47]

I've not long since built a tank like that for a guy on a "Seriously Low" budget, I got an ordinary tank, cut the sides off & swapped them, & even if I do say so myself, it turned out The B#llocks, I really wish I could paint like that. All this talent in this tiny country of ours is "Inspiring".

[@tomboyabit]

I agree with you. And also these talented people don't get enough of appreciation! That is why so good to see such appreciating comments for a craft that deserves it.

[@rayban5737]

My kind of style.... Love it

[@ghostdog1874]

Love this build! Very 👍 nice job

[@tomboyabit]

I agree!

[@gerardmontgomery280]

12:44 I'm not a Harley guy and I know they're supposed to sound like that on idle but to me they always sound like they're going to conk out. I guess I'm just used to precise BMW clockwork. Still I'm totally looking to pick up a HD for my next bike. Not a custom chopper though, I have neither the time nor the money for something like that. It's a stunning bike.

[@Joey_McElroy]

25K for a sportster is nuts! As far as paying that…if you’re building the bike for yourself to keep till you die…now that’s different…it’s too personal of a style to sell for 25K unless you just got a guy who’s a huge Indian Larry fan….personally I’d love to ride it just the way it is for around 10-15K…that is one killer bike! I’m more of a rat bike kind of look. But if you’re going to have a shiny custom built evo sporty…this is one to go with!

[@robertbieganski8143]

Hello 🙋Dogs have been your audience as well...maybe pets should be a part of your every video)))) I like it .. why the question is????? You love animals...it means you are a good man... ♀️.)))) on the other hand....this man in yr video is a genuine passionate of motorcycles...great job and skills.

[@randymack1782]

very nice build, I could discuss a few minor tidbits I see in private if interested? I once built bikes for 2 decades of my youth, a guy took me in as a teenager, showed me the way, & 2 decades later we had a falling out, & part of our agreement to be taught by him was to never go in business against him to compete, he retired last year, so I just picked up a bike to do a light build with, to get my hands wet so to speak, & looking for a second to build wild. you mention molding frame, you did it the way most do, or have done, but there is another way, that wont have potential to eventually crack, torch weld, and torch work with brass, then a die grinder & flap wheels to metal finish it without any body filler. I still have a true chopper frame done in the 1970s, neck brazed where it was chopped, hard tail brazed on, & it has been numerous times to 3 corners of the USA New-York, California & Miami Florida, & Baja Mexico, and across the country dozens of times. I am getting my property ready so I can get a building to work in, so I can open a shop, old school only, I actually quit, refusing to work on modern bikes, in 2002, thts what me &owner had dispute over, & he was going to make me work on a TC, & I quit, & until 2 years ago, I had never touched a twin cam from modern era, nor an EVO, only shovels, pans, Knucks, flatheads, KRs, 45's Ironheads, & VLs. today I will work on anything, but 100% chopper / bobber guy, so no desire to just repair bikes, only old school traditional building in old school ways,

[@salvadorhernandez3404]

Nice Bike for being a Sportster, it looks pretty damn Kick-Ass! I personally would not own a Sportster I happen to own two Big (early model) V-twins myself. Though in this case I would seriously consider maybe building a bike just like this or similar to this having that old school 60's/70 bobber look. 👍
