- For the first time seeing if the 1976 Harley Davidson Ironhead Sportster Chopper Bobber Build will run after several years in the making. But beforehand, I had the honor of meeting Termite Offroad; some fellow youtubers whom I love to watch.

Drove a 1970's Wagoneer from Detroit to Jackson Hole Wyoming on Christmas eve 1977 with 3 friends! 🤣
Always an adventure getting from point A to point B on an Ironhead or Shovelhead. 😎
My first Harley Davidson was an angry ol' Ironhead right hand shift. 💖
Old bikes have soul.
Sounds like a time to be had!
I just got my first motorcycle and its also a iron head right shifter its all in parts bare frame trying to figure out where to start building it
Always a good feeling when they return to life and agree 50mph cruise on an older bike gives enjoyment only the likes of us can understand .
Stay safe all.
Haha, I had the exact same reaction when I brought my 79' ironhead out for the first time last year. Screaming/laughing with excitement. Such raw, fun bikes. Fair play man!
Hell ya they are. There is nothing like rippin down the road on a ironhead.....that is healthy.
Cool, i bought a ironhead in 1979. Mine was fun, but troublesome ! My old Triumph was more reliable ! Both were maintenance intensive, fun though!
60 minutes ago i came home from work on my 1985 ironhead!!!!i love it
Righteous!
So good to see that running. 👍🏾👍🏾
Yes it is.
I am excited to see the iron head breathing and I can't imagine how you feel. I remember the day it came home and even though you couldn't use the original oil tank I believe it is turning out to be a hell of a bike. Well as always ride 55 and ride free.
Been a long time coming
That old bike sounds great!!!
You are one heck of a good mechanic, brother.
Good job. God Bless.
I'm not that great, but thanks. I agree... the sound cannot be immitated.
"Shimmy sham with that ho-do flipper. Coming on strong man with that ironhead"
Dude. That boy is the funniest person I've seen in a long time. That was hilarious.
You should turn that into part of a intro or outtro.
Awesome!!!! Hope our paths cross again while you are riding it would love to see and hear it in person. Felt like an eternity watching you work on it, the wait was worth it.
Thank you for sharing your excitement , nothing better than riding some at speed that didnt exist before you built it .....life affirming .
Sounded real good! Have fun with your Ironhead! My Shovelhead is a 4 speed, It likes to cruise at 55 or 60. It's all good!
Right on
Now I can't wait to get my 71' on the road...it was a barn find that sat for 20+ yrs it's in rough shape but slowly building it....bike sounds great hoss and your nuffin but smiles awesome
😄 excellent, a kid with a new toy !
Sometimes people wonder why it is we ride.... well , there it is, in one short video ✌️
Right on!
Sweet ride! I love the old bikes especially Sportsters and Evos. 1 year ago, I moved from Boise Idaho where the riding season is short but diverse to central Louisiana where I can now ride most of the year so after I finish this comment, I'm riding! Congrats on getting that old iron running again.
I can't believe it started that quick and from your reaction I don't think you did either. Good job on the build keep the excitement going.
I grew up around the livestock haulers of the 70s and 80s... I started riding with in 81 and they'd actually pop it in neutral at the top and let her rip going downhill.. they didn't do it everywhere but places where there's very little curves
That's awesome! It's great to see the ironhead on the road!
Awesome indeed!
I love your excitement. Fantastic
Congratulations! The first time It starts is like your new kid's first cry in the delivery room.
Man it's been a minuet since you got that thing and it's so cool it's running and rideable. Drum brakes, oh man I got them too and if I didn't have the front brakes I don't know how much I would ride my bike. Brake fade is a real thing and I learned that a couple of weekends ago when I over shot a corner on some twisty's. Lucky no one was coming so it was ok. Respect these old bikes or they will bit you. Termite reminds me of my old FJ-60 Land Cruiser. 65 mph down hill.
Its Alive Its Alive. Congratulations Cory.
I still remember your first video on that Ironhead and then the hurricane happened and well... then trying to get the shop built and the insurance debacle lol.
I remember them all too well.
I remember those days riding iron heads and shovels when motorcycle riding was an adventure
I bet they were!
1976 was a fantastic year...this motorcycle proves it. ;)
Love how you still have that first time rider giggle, awesome job Amigo, from Cape Cod with love..Chuck
Thanks, Chuck!
Sooooo cool. Very happy your Iron Head came out a success. Hopefully you can get that other tank working. God Bless and enjoy that old beast. 👍
they sound like two Kool folks. I will check out there channel. I really like your new shop, I hope there is no trees around it. I'm like you, I live in Hurricane Ally. I live in L.A (lower Alabama). I might take a ride over your way one-day and camp out. Ride Safe Tramp. I enjoy you videos.
Sometime this week my 76 XLH total rebuild will be ready to roll. Totally stoked, thanks for the motivation!!!!
Right on!
Thats awesome brother sounds good too had a huge smile on my face when it cranked great job amigo!
Can't express it enough!
Man it was awesome watching this bike run. I knew exactly how you felt riding it for the first time. Sounds like a strong runner to!
It's crude, and I can dig it. It was good meeting you guys. We're gonna come up your way soon enough.
Nice! I'm resurrecting a '78 I got out of the blackberry bushes.
Alright! That's awesome. Sounds great. Always nice to see you happy man. 👊😎
Hey Cory That is awesome, I feel the excitement. My girlfriend has a 74 Sportster, and when I ride it especially in the city you have to be so aware of the brake and shifter. Like you say though it sounds great and is fun. You are an amazing mechanic. Stay safe and say hi to Kim.
Thanks, Joe. I'll do that.
Way ta go, Cory!!! Yup, a long time coming but it LIVES!!!
Awww yeah. I have been watching this series and finally get to see it go!
nice you got it on the roadjust finished up alot of the small things on mine and waiting for the weather to break with all the rain to test it out. congrats on getting it finished nothing like seeing the end line
Great seeing your excitement
Thank you, Nancy.
I’ve got a 74 hard tailed. Awesome and like they said “raw” bike. Love it!
She’s alive!!!
Well done young man
I love classic ironheads. Hope to get one after my current build. Massive respect for the hard work brother. Keep makin the sweet content.
Thanks! Will do!
Congratulations on the iron head !
Thanks, man!
Congratulations Tramp! Nothing like first start up of something that started as a box of parts. You'll get used to the right hand shift. Way back in the dark ages of 1974 I was running a DT 250 Yamaha and a 66 BSA for the summer. Couple of unplanned, hard downshifts and you adapt.
It's odd to to say the least.
Watching your videos takes me back when I was younger my brother and I had paper routes there was a biker guy all the time I'll go collect from him he had his Chopper in his dining room I thought it was weird as I got older I respected that and now I knew how much money he had into it he and all his biker Buddies would give me shit because I used to like the sound the newspaper made on his aluminum screen door he would tell my brother for me to stop that shit had a lot of love for that man
Congrats to you, been there, nothing like bringing an old vehicle back from the dead, nothing to compare it to
Different than normal? Ha, all your videos are different than normal. It’s why I like you. God bless you brother.
Thank you, man... That means a lot.
Cool chop, loving it as always!
It's cool to see it running especially after I heard the story about how you acquired it and what it means to you
It's a different kind of an appreciation than the Tramp's first startup.
Smooth Brother, I remember the first runs after a build
Nothin like it, huh?
@@SaddleTrampTV No it sure isn't. Seems like those bikes are the ones I like the best. Getting ready for our memorial day flag ride here. Planting flags for those of our family no longer here with us. Pistol Pete
That is awsome...you got her running!!!! Lot hard work right there.
You got that right!
Had a 1972 xlch chopped out, man that brings back a lot of memories.
I bet it does.
Good job. I remember when they were new. Your garage is nicer & cleaner than the harley dealership that bike was sold from. How times have changed.
Stealthily turning your garage into a bike-shop w/o the wife catching on until it's too late. I like it 👍
Lol
There's that kid in a candy store again....🤣😂🤣 COOL
Ooh yea,sweet sound there Mr Tramp. 👍🏼👊🏼
Yeah! I’m stickin around.
You're the man!
Wow man great video. I'll definitely go check them out and by the sounds of your voice you can tell how happy you were man to have the ole ironhead going.. Good job.
Thank you, Carson. It was a happy day.
Hey, Saddle Tramp!! Congrats on getting the '76 Ironhead on the road!! I know full well what you mean about it taking years and you wonder if it will ever be done and on the road. I just finished my dream bike; a '49 FL Pan that I began building in February of 2015. It's an "Easy Rider" "Captain America" tribute bike. Enjoy that Ironhead!! I've never owned one, but a lot of my friends had them back in the day, and they're a blast to ride!!😊😊
Thanks! Will do.
Bad ass chopper man!
Congrats brother.....she looks good and sounds even better. Ride safe
You’re my Hero!! Kudos on the Ironhead. We need to ride soon.
I agree
Yay bro I’ve watched you since I was a teenager and now I have my own Harley ironhead and when I got her running I was a lil bit more happy but hey right on bro🎉
Dig it, man. Heck yeah!
I have a 1972 XLCH IM BUILDING great video old bikes are COOL ...The Older the Better
I agree!
✊😎
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s
Sound's real good. Keep Your knee's in the breeze Brother. 🦅
Will do!
Congrats !! ... Sweet Ass Bike ... It goes to show with Patience , Determination & Hardwork ... in the end it all pays off.
Nice one. Glad to see you moving on.
It's alive! The look on your face when it fired right up........Priceless
I know, right? Lol
Nice. Working with the town. Trying to get building permit. They want to start building. bike sounds great. Can hear the excitement in your voice. Enjoy.
That was a great video. Loved your excitement riding the bike. Great work! Hellllooooo Missus!!! Love you guys- you do great work!
Thank you, Missy!
The iron sounds great and Nice people you met.
Awesome brother
this is EPIC to see this rolling down the road! Well done! cool video good sir!
Epic is a good word for it!
Wagoneers are damn cool. I dig everything old and classic. Love the videos!
Heck yea Sir I dig this video. FANTASTIC WORK IN ALL WAYS
Haunted house on 2 wheels, now that's funny! When my friends ask me how my '65 runs, I tell them that it runs like a jack hammer, but yeah, it's also like a haunted house on wheels as you never know if you're going to make it home in one piece. :-)
ITS ALIVE! How happy did you sound lol, awesome to see it on the road mate, congratulations
Thank you, my friend.
She sounds good!
Great to see it up running and going down the road! Sounds awesome! You best buy another project to keep the content coming so we can all stay tuned!! lol great work Corey
With a shovel, an ironhead, and 3 other Harleys... There's always something.
AWESOME My Man! It's FINALLY Alive! Congratulations!
Yes! Thank you!
Congratulations Corey on the Iron. I’d say the difference between an Iron getting you there over an EVO is the appreciation level one has for an Iron making it problem free. We ironically took maintenance free to the next level with the Evo lol.
Yeah it's somewhat a sense of accomplishment.
That's awesome man
Thanks!
Well done. Yep, love the sound. My first Harley was a Sportster, that was over 40 years ago. I put drag pipes on. I loved the sound but the guys I rode with didn't. When we rode together there was a pocket they didn't want to get into.
Corey, you started that bike up and it sounded awesome but I said to myself I'd never want to trust it dpwn the road.....but then there you go laughing and loving the ride. Great to see you feelin life! Thanks for Sharing!
Nice fix, nice bike. I wish my back roads near Atlanta were that void of traffic.🤓
I hear ya, man.
cool man. glad you got to ride it. it does sound really good. good vid
Congrats 👏 sounds great 👍
Thanks!

The bike... Don't know about the run yet.
Glad to see you riding it got a sportster I will ride no brakes got to work on it, also need get mid controls for to im short don't like riding like in a hammock anyone got some parts?
IT'S ALIVE!! 😲 Never thought we see the day. What a great feeling that must have been for ya, like a kid with a new toy but you built it✌😎
Yeah really... At one time I was starting to think it wasn't going to be anything more than a shop ornament. That started bugging me, so I had to see if it could live.
Been a while glad I stopped in!
Thanks for stopping by!
Great vid - Good mix of content ... Almost like a 'magazine' style
That feeling of the bike firing up first time after major in-house surgery - A feeling that cant be beaten.💥👍😀
Name suggestion for the '76 ... 'Resurrection'
Well said, Sidney!
I think rat rod Bob lives in Mississippi. dragging fly is what we call it in the trucking industry
