Triumph / A story about second chances and vintage bikes.

[@skychaser59]

The world needs more Weems.

[@weemsmotorco]

There is one of me!

[@TheMotoShaman]

I got that same nostalgia feeling for old stuff, and judging by the color of our beards we make that list too. Cheers fella!

[@weemsmotorco]

Old Stuff is the best!

Hi Jared been watching your content as a result of your association with Shadetree.Ive been riding Triumph for quite a few years and It's refreshing to see someone from across the pond promoting England's finest in the land of the V twin. Keep up the good work,Martin

[@weemsmotorco]

I will continue to do my best!

[@Rideon187]

I'm happy you made it! The world needs more people who care. It's a better place because of people like you who care!

Thanks Friend!

[@jimbt719]

I appreciate this video in so many ways. Thank you for filling us in on your back story that for me was just eluded to up til now. We all have one. My dad before he he passed on to the next world told me" We live here an now" I took that to mean , Do the best I can every day. Thank you for sharing and doing what you do every day. As I have commented so many times,Hell is in the details. The best to you Sir, and your family. Well done.

[@weemsmotorco]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

Scaring me Jared Weems, The nature of cancer is that it never goes away. When my first wife and I lost her battle she was still buying me old woodworking tools. She'd sit in the shop and watch me restore them to use. The "Old Men" built it right I still say and admire them for it. Taking a piece of furniture or a tool and extending the usefulness and life to it, is what the original builders hoped for. Jared you are the only person I would allow ride my Uncle's 47 Indian Chief, because you appreciate. Please my friend do not hide from us if you are ill again. As always you are in my prayers as is your family, not for the wonderful bikes you build or your Service to our Country, but for your dedication to your family and God. With Love and Respect, You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

Brilliant video jared 👍, take care .Thank-you for sharing your reason to live , i feel honoured. From one triumph lover to another "dont stop building mate 👍 " See you on the road one day ...maybe 😁 Peace out ✌️

[@weemsmotorco]

Much appreciated!

[@ssstryker6136]

Vintage is a state of mind. When you walk out to the parking lot. " I hope she starts." Small victories lead to great rewards.

[@weemsmotorco]

Love that!

[@theadventurousrider]

That was a very interesting background man. I agree there is nothing more fulfilling than working with your hands and restoring something.

Glad you enjoyed it

We are lucky to have you on youtube. Big thanks...

Thanks Joe!

[@johnbeard8013]

Hello, only just discovered your channel, follow several similar to what you do here in the UK. Great to see what you do and say about it, love the "shed built" motorbikes and continually amazed with the ideas you come up with, I'm not in the same universe as you but you do inspire me to have a go and enable me to stop and think to work round things. Always loved Triumph motorbikes, currently have 2004 Thruxton , I'm currently working on, sorry not as old as your bikes but i know i can ride without taking a rucksack full of tools with me - just in case! Thank you, John.

[@weemsmotorco]

The Thruxton is my favorite modern Triumph!

[@ds3customs703]

You’re the man Weems! I’ve talked to you at every major show I’ve been to (Fuel Cleveland, The Congregation etc.) and I’ll be at Mama Tried again this year so I’ll have to find you.

[@weemsmotorco]

Be sure to stop me and say hello!

[@skittlesmcdittles]

I love this journey for you, Weems!

[@weemsmotorco]

Yay, thank you!

[@2WheelsNcoffee]

Love the video, the way it has this subtle tv docu-series vibe to it 👍😎

[@weemsmotorco]

Glad you like it!

[@harlycarly4358]

Just stumbled on to WEEMS Motors. Incredible story. I have been riding nearly 50 years, owned my first bike, a 1971 Triumph TR6R from 1976 until 2021. Sold it, my 1975 Superglide, and my 2001 FLH and "quit" riding by 2021. I was miserable. Almost made it thru 1 summer, but I picked up a 2015 Indian Scout in 2022. Turns out to be a really nice ride for me, though a bit high tech, quiet and smooth. Checking out your videos has got me lusting for another BritBike. Gonna subscribe, and can't wait to dive into your world. Thanks for what you do.

[@weemsmotorco]

[@weemsmotorco]

Thanks Friend!

[@mainframe64]

Awesome, I would love to see this. I miss the custom bike building scene. I especially miss seeing older bikes being put back on the road

[@weemsmotorco]

You and me both!

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

My Sportster went from new to used to old to classic to vintage. And so it goes. Enjoy them now.

[@Peewee1957]

You truly inspire Mr. Weems. Not many older Triumphs up here in Canada but I find great pleasure in making my own farkles (custom bike parts) for my modern Bonnie.

[@weemsmotorco]

Keep at it! They too one day will be "old"!

[@piasprojects]

Jared, phenominal video work, but whats even better is your story! I have seen some of your work in person and it is outstanding, we briefly chatted at the Forgotten Angels campout where Dave and Cindy got married. Keep doing the great things you are doing! I look forward to seeing you at a campout again! Also I started a small KZbin Channel, currently working on VWs but i will be incorporating my motorcycle as well. Maybe i can build something 1/4 as cool as what you build!

[@weemsmotorco]

Glad you enjoyed it! I love me some air cooled VW's!

I've followed your channel from the UK and enjoyed it for a while now. I don't have your skills but I can appreciate the work and the passion that shines through. I am a bit of a Triumph fanboy but currently only own a modern one so it is great to see the passion for the 50's & 60's Triumphs being kept alive. Your story and your positivity about the bikes is inspiring and it is brilliant that we all get to share in your passion via KZbin.

[@weemsmotorco]

Thanks and welcome to the channel!

That needs to be on Discovery, don't slow down or it might catch up with you, that's why I put out two videos a week, keeps me busy and the cancer is inactive, I think it's because I don't slow down.
