These 1930s Harleys look so much better than bikes made today that it's painful.

[@hopingforthebest1.9]

Seems like half the bikes in that museum are one of a kind, thats pretty cool

[@USMMCE]

Once all of this crap is over, visiting Wheels Through Time is going to be one of my first trips! It will be a nice ride on my 83 Shovelhead FXR.

[@denyspoyner4150]

I'd love to visit also, seems like the kind of place it takes 2 days to explore it all. Wish it wasn't so far away from me in AZ.

[@timlavance867]

Had a 1990 FXR many years ago..wish I had kept it

[@jakobw.9920]

Thanks for teaching us so much about old motorcycles👍

[@markj4066]

Matt is like a human encyclopedia of motorcycle history. Well done!

[@neilo.hislop950]

His Father puts him to shame

[@user-sk8ts3cj7f]

Definitely! Matt and his late father Dale, may God rest his soul, were and are great American motorcycle historians and possess great knowledge of how they work and how to rebuild, restore and repair these priceless machines.

These videos about motorcycles from the 20s and 30s are so interesting, as Harleys of that time had quite a strong position here in Finland, too. H-D was actually one of the most common motorcycles in Finland in the 20s and the 30s. "Most common" of course in the context that the country/market was quite small, but there were hundreds of them on the road during the period 1920-1939 (and there are quite a few left, too). H-D:s were used by police and the army. The V-twin was the most common, but the army had also a dozen of the Model W Sport Twins, 600 cc boxers (1919-1923). None of those survived, as far as I know. The big H-D customer was the forest industry. The bikes were used in forests that could not be reached by cars, as there were no roads. They were used by to map areas to be logged, document logging projects and doing business with those who owned forests. In winter these forest industry Harleys pulled big sleds (some of these can be found in museums), as much of the logging projects took place during the winter. Some Harleys were of course bought for other purposes, but they were few. Some were used in long endurance races, which were quite rough in Finland, but the H-D:s did quite well. PS. One of our presidents never had a drivers' license for car, but drove a Harley in the 1920s.

This motorcycle was built for my great grandfather, Horace Woolery. He had his own manufacturing facility in Minnesota. Thanks for keeping his legacy alive! ❤❤❤😊

[@patrickduley405]

I’m so glad you guys are making these great videos. Can’t wait to come see you all when you finally open

[@billyhellboy6138]

Georgous bike I just can't help but want a vintage like this it's bloody perfect

Wow, what a bike! Nice sound.

[@marcuslambert2162]

gots to visit there ,has got to be the best place on this planet to be in .

[@bobhoe]

I can't believe you don't have more subscribers. I hope to visit your museum someday

[@dw6506]

Plan on at least 1 day and then you could go back the next and still see machines you hadn’t before, and great people working there with so much knowledge

[@fidelcatsro6948]

yeah this channel deserves more subs!

[@Wooley689]

I can't get enough of these videos and bikes. Last time I was there I only made it a 1/3 of the way around and still didn't see all that was in that third. Never made it to second floor, looking forward to the next trip.

[@TheBustedNut]

That thing sounds good!! Nice bike for sure!!

[@Klassiccycles]

That's a great little machine. But yes Matt it really does need to be ridden. Get some heat in it and fuel through the lines.

[@MGMan-ce7sf]

Wow! What a sweet bike. Beautiful lines; almost more British than American looking. Like a 1930s Ariel or AJS. Wonderful!

[@rodr8228]

Great place need to visit again

[@mikekovacs5392]

By far my favorite channel. Can’t wait to visit in June !

Such a great machine

[@alangatortholl565]

[@user-sk8ts3cj7f]

People have been personalizing their motorcycles for as long as there have been motorcycles. Beautiful bike. The art deco style is evident in the 30’s era Harleys. My opinion, I don’t care for the latest Harley models. I’ve added visiting Wheels through Time to my bucket list.

[@danoneill2846]

Thanks !

[@thinman8621]

Sounds good as I listen to it run on this cold, January night.

[@dereksyth133]

Wish I had one of there, one of a kind. If I didn't leave it to my son I'd put it in there museum... After I rode the crap out of it. Lol

If you guys need a test rider/ spit polisher/ janitor/ extra set of hands just let me know! I'll gladly take a bullet for the team!

[@aarondalton2223]

Look at this one of a kind Harley Davidson silver paint!! It's the only shade of silver like it in existence. A worker in the harley factory only shit it out for two days and half of that batch was lost in a 1933 fire. Someone was huffing the silver paint and smoking cigarettes at the same time. After the fire a midget who worked for Harley found a half of a pint of the paint. Ultra rare, one of a kind, and scammed from some unsuspecting soul so it could be here in the museum.

[@Charger389]

Fairly silent bike for having such a short exhaust system. And idles really nicely..

[@bradwiebelhaus7065]

Cool

[@waynedavis7245]

Great motorcycle, looks like it was a head of the times .

only thing i can think that the founder would say now is that where are there state of the art racing machine....i hate seing how harley was at the forefront of racing but said fuck that and we should build slow as fuck boulevard cruiser that cant turn and brake...

It's not a HD if it doesn't leak oil and leave you pushing it down the street.

[@tomeells6067]

"Needs ridden" I can help you with that.

[@Polaris88Reid]

Something in my gut questions weather one ☝️ was just built . My grandfather knowledge was uncannily with Harley Davidson’s edit some one else has something similar . So many that are 1 off a kind to 1or2 off variance

[@derekcollins1972]

Sorry bud but I can't follow what you are trying to say.

[@browngreen933]

Actually one off example is not hard to believe. Guy Webb ordered it this way and Harley-Davidson built it. One off because nobody else wanted or ordered one.

[@harpomarx7777]

You seem to know a lot about engines ... ... and yet you call them "motors".

[@browngreen933]

The word "motor" is very old, older than gas engines and electric motors both, and means something that goes. Perfectly correct usage.

[@johnniethepom2905]

That's why they call them ' motorcycles ' and not enginecycles !

[@Ceemysix]

When you change out an engine, do you clean up the “engine mounts” or the “motor mounts”?

[@carllafong7489]

Here we go again with the old "motor engine" shit. The world will never lack for pedantic nit pickers
