- A slideshow of my 1949 EL Panhead Chopper Inthrew together for the 2023 fuel Cleveland Show. Had some parts laying around, bought a bunch of parts, figured it would motivate me to knock out another one. Hope you guys enjoy and thanks for checking out my videos, I appreciate all the kind words. Take care you guys & gals!
1948 - 1965 PANHEADS Then, now, always. 🇺🇸👍♥️✌️🇨🇦
Of course! The old stuff is the best. Nothing compares, never will. I’d rather work on an old bike all week long to ride in the weekends than be seen on a big chunky, ugly oversized computer…that’s just me though. Everyone’s aloud to have an opinion, I’m not asking anyone to agree with me.
Liked what you said about frames. I feel the same. Cool Sled !!!
I like to change my bikes around. I like to have the option of going from chopper to stock…I don’t see a point in fucking up something that doesn’t need improvements. I think molded down tubes looks tacky and over the top. I think log gooseneck rakes looks ridiculous. Plated rear axle plates and hard tail sections looks silly. Not for me man. But that’s just my opinion. Thanks man
slick chop
Thanks man!
Awesome bike
I want to buy it :)
Thanks man! I appreciate it dude
Fair enough 👌
That thing is awesome. I wanna build one so bad I just have no clue where to start
Thanks man. Go to your local motorcycle swap meet, find a couple of cool old parts you like, over pay for them because some kid who has a really bitchin instagram says they are cool. Then build a bike around it man…but do it for you, do what you like and make it yours. Buy a manual, and never buy a frame or motor that doesn’t have a clear transferable title. Thats what I can tell you…you’ll get there if you want it bad enough. Take it easy man! Thanks for kind words dude 🤙🏼
@@EverythingsClassicGarageI agree a 1,000%. Find a motor or donor bike (good numbers, clear title) and just get after it.
Everybody's got to start somewhere. It's fun, it's better than spending your money on crank
Cool bike. Finding old harley stuff like that here in the uk is ...well, you'd be either really lucky or have alot of cash 😅.....i guess if it's old british stuff it's alot easier but original old harley frames etc...easier to fly to the states i think.
Hey man, I started with the old British stuff. I love it! It’s the same thing here man. You have to have deep pockets. It’s getting hard to afford stuff or just takes longer to pony up the cash to pile up parts but I love it, so somehow I make it work. It’s therapeutic for me. If I can’t do it i wouldn’t know what to do with my life. I don’t have social media and I don’t own a television. So you gotta have something…thanks for the comment man, build a bitchin triumph and go smash some gash! Those are words of wisdom for you 😂 take care man!
@@EverythingsClassicGarage Thanks for the reply. Yeh , alot of old stuff can cost but i guess it's a good interest to have . I ride an evo engine custom hardtail chop that i managed to get put together 25 years ago with alot of help from people who knew what they were doing...cause i didn't 😅...i learned some stuff though and as is with choppers, it's changed a bit over the years but it still does it for me ....keep on ridin and buildin 👍
Hell yeah man. I think whatever it is, British, Harley, Evo whatever, if it’s cool it’s cool and the most important thing is, it’s yours. It can evolve. It’s a fun hobby, and I believe with the older stuff if you’re gonna build something go full ass not half ass. Buy the shit you want in your bike, you’re the one that looks at it everytime you walk into the garage, not anyone else, it’s your rock show! Fuck yeah dude! You too man, thanks for stoping by and talking choppers with me man. Take care!
No Facebook or Instagram for me either but I do have a telly so you got me beat! Enjoying the vids and shorts mate, thank you. UK/Triumph/AJS
dude thats right in my neighborhood, right across from echo park! what film is that in the intro? Bitchin pan and the genny shovel too!
Thanks man, that’s wild. This one is Cycle Savages I think 1967? Don’t quote me on that. Great movie man, I love the old ones!
Any of the gas tanks for sale?
I think I should ride the shit outta that scooter if you don't! lol !
I know, I rolled right into another project after finishing it and with work and shit, I just got lost in another project immediately after. Motor is brand new, it’ll be fun to get out and surf this thing this year. Thanks man!
If you are just throwing together a piece of shit chopper why spend all that scratch on the frame ?
Because someone once told me a long time ago if you’re going to do something do it right you. Go full ass not half ass
Well, I guess you better get back to work cause you got a long way to go 😂
Ha. Guys! Hold up! We got a real professional here. Let’s hear what he has to say. All joking aside. Don’t be a douche. He built the bike for him. That doesn’t mean I or you have to like it. So if your opinion holds no value, which it doesn’t, sTFu.
Man,I really let you down…I’ll try harder next time
@EverythingsClassicGarage
I checked out your other videos & really liked the 69 chopper.
It appears that you had a vision & applied some skill & efforts to carry it through.
This 49 is just a rolling cliché, you just follow the same hipster Fuel & Mama-tried formula as all the others.
You stress about a 3 month deadline on a project that could be done on a weekend.
I guess I'm just a Douche because I'd rather be riding & wrenching than spending my time hanging parts & David Mann posters on my wall ?
