I was eleven years old. Two things stood out to me then about this show. First, Broson was really cool. Second, I felt how Bronson felt. Being free to roam. Explore. Adventure. Meeting people. But, moving on not staying anywhere.

“Running down that long lonesome highway”🎼

I have his record album!

Yup show inspired me decades ago.

I watched ever episode when they came out, but I never realized at the time, that his handle bars were so wide.

i remember this show

My first bike was a 5hp Tecumsah Taco, and my second was a 1976 Honda XR75. Our arc is similar. And I had never seen this series or knew of these bikes until now. Very interesting video series. Thank you.

Have the same story , just like when my older friends would come over on all kinds of different bikes , it was always the Harley that got me excited Then Came Bronson was the best

Cool

Never missed a show

How did you learn so much about TCB? And the video clips?

Was my favorite show to watch as a kid, that and Easy Rider were my two shows that made me fall in love with motorcycles which mostly consisted of Harley Davidsons which I still ride today at 66 yrs old. My father who worked in the film Industry “Ray Nadeau” IMDB knew Bud Elon’s very well and had ran with him in Hair and Hound (desert) races back in the day

what about the chopper that martin sheen gave him in the first episode????????.......

That was my favorite show of all time,I’m a sport fan.

Loved that show!

Somewhere in my old slides, I've got a pic of me with the finished MPC kit. I got to put a leg over the bike at Cars of the Stars as the place was in decline and no one was watching. I even worked with a guy in Reno who claims to have been around the Mapes when "That Undiscovered Country" was being filmed. I do have the ASE decals on my Honda Navi but it's the dollar replica because I named the bike "Illumi-Navi." Anyway, great info here for TCB fans.

6:00 am I threw my rolled up sleeping bag out the 2nd floor window, snuck out the house, through the woods to a neighbor who had a barely running Honda 90 in the barn. Attached sleeping bag, rolled it into the field, started it up and headed up the Interstate. Later that day was picked up by the police, over night in a cell, parents got me next day. 1970, I was 14, never been on a bike, I wanted to live Bronson’s life. Utterly stupid I know. Wasn’t my last adventure.

Brings back some good memories!

I loved the show but nobody seemed to be aware of it as it was played around midnight when most people were in bed. Stupid TV programmers in Sydney Australia🤔

I was 19 when Then Came Bronson first aired. I would watch it with my grandmother who loved Bronson as much as I did. My whole life has been centered around Harleys and vintage British twins.

It's funny. 16-year-old me didn't like this episode much - too boring and slow. But 69-year-old me has a new appreciation for it. I guess that once you get older and have had some serendipitous meetings and sad good-byes, things "hit a little different" as the kids these days say. What's even more funny is that this series - especially this episode - **still** makes me want to chuck everything and head out on the road. The question now would be: Bronson-style on my Sportster? Or buy a campervan (and a trenchcoat) and do it like Katz?

The memories this brought back !!👍 thank you 👍

Fantastic project.

The genuine Bronson Harley is a Harley-Davidson Sportster motorcycle that was featured in the TV show Then Came Bronson. The motorcycle is on display at the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, Iowa

I used to watch this show when it was on television when I was a kid. But even then, I thought it was funny that he pretended to kickstart his Harley, when it had an electric start

I was between the USAF and the Army in 69, watched every episode I could. Never realized it only had one season. Wish they would show full episodes instead of partials. I loved it then.

Does anyone remember they came out with an album with the theme song as one of the hits that Michael Parks sings . My older brother liked the show so much he bought the album.

I want to see the episode where he races off road, this old guy wearing a full leather suit with a question mark painted on it. Thats about all I remember but it got me hooked on dirtbikes!

Watched the show faithfully during my senior year in high school. My first bike followed the following summer - a Sears 106cc (a rebadged Italian Gilera) at a cost of around $350. My dad reluctantly agreed to accompany me to buy it and drove it home for me. We were both immediately assigned to the doghouse where we resided for a week or so until mom got used to the idea. Quite a few bikes followed but I stopped riding when I started questioning my aging ability to react quickly enough to the many potentially dangerous situations on the road. Bronson was my inspiration and a pretty fair role model for a young guy.

My Dad and I watched the show. He taught me how to be a responsible Biker.

I had that model kit

I remember watching this episode. There was something about him banging on his fender with that Bronson rock that stayed with me all these years.

I loved that show, only one season? Too bad, 69 I was 15 years. I also ride and think about that show all the time. Glad I found your channel

😮ALL SEEING eye"...

In the back of Cycle Magazine, Michael Parks was shown featuring a Sportster give away. Just enter the drawing by sending in your name and address. I did this but apparently didn’t win 😢. I always wondered who did 🤔

where ya headed?

Why was my comment removed?

Don’t touch my hog

Vastly underated, underappreciated actor, talent. My hero back then as a jr in hs, but the coolest uncle in the world had me interested in bikes since I can remember.

Loved this show when i were young 64years long gone n alot of miles on a rigid shovel now have a dyna w/g 96 n my dads 77lowrider stroker 88inch RIP DAD. Ramblin sorry loved Bronson😂😂😂

I enjoyed riding off into the wilderness with my Honda Shadow. The time that sticks out is down the road from the Grand Canyon. Driving up and down onto rock ledges looking for a place to camp. Squeezing the bike in-between Pinion pines to hide. That was about as far as I got from Miami. It was all about getting to a place where you could see no sign of traffic or the human race.

It was crazy to Michael parks on kill bill as the Honduran jungle pimp ,dude had some acting chops ..you gotta believe tarrintino was a fan of TCB and carridine in Kung foo . Rip micheal parks. Rip David Carridine

I own a 1968 Sportster XLCH, I bought it new, and I still own it. I purchased it at Reiman's Harley Davidson from Henry & Roger Reiman. Roger was the top road racer in the world at that time and the chief mechanic for Evil Knievel. I loved the show Then came Bronson. I got a Navy watch cap, wore the sunglasses and thought I was Micheal Parks.

Wheel's through TIME in Maggie Valley NC MAY have ONE ,They have some EVIL KENIVAL BIKE'S

This show made a 2 year waiting list for SPORSTER's At our local Harley shop ! Loved IT!!

I just carved off decades of water under the bridge, to recall watching this TV series as a teenager.

Good job,Happy Harley Days, the show and parks inspired me as well. I've had 5 SPORTSTERS, I have a 2022 1200 X. 48. RIDE EASY. 😊

Always cracked me up watching him kick start the bike and you could hear the starter kicking in.

I was a Fan ! I was a Freshman in Highschool '69 It was the driving motivator of my wearing a Navy Blue watch Cap ! A habit I again picked up in the Marine Corps, at Mountain Warfare Training ! I had almost forgotten this show ! As Bob Hope used to say, " Thanks for the Memories " ! 👍😉
