    I'm loving the idea that the younger generations are getting back into original style choppers and culture, it was said necessity is the mother of all invention, this can be directly applied to the home chopper builder where parts and money are restraints for the new but not the old.

    I like the color Elvis chose and that he kept it frugal on the build.

    Love seeing shadow content. Between this, heartbreak Moto, cassa customs and LNSPLT, UA-cam is ripe with shadow vids. So helpful for making my own build. Budget build forever 💪
    Love the vlx600 as a custom platform.

    Just got to the movie question. Elvis would make a dope recast of Benny from the sandlot. He already got the vibes with that mariners cap.

    That front tire is from a Brazilian manufacturer. It goes for "technic tires".

    • @LatchkeyKidX
      @LatchkeyKidX 7 місяців тому +2

      They fine as long as the joint stays between the tree clamps and you don’t go like longer than like 6 inches

      Aww man not this again 😂
      PSA to anyone who has negative feelings about fork slugs: All the negative things you’ll ever hear about or read on dated forum entries sent in by people who lived through the 70’s will all scare you off.
      But back then people would use hollow pipe or solid stock that was the diameter of the threaded portion (smaller diameter than the forks) which left a gap in the triple trees. People would over-tighten the top clamps of the trees to try to clamp the “slugs”. Doing this would of course weaken the clamps and either the makeshift slugs or the triple tree clamps would eventually break.
      Fast forward to today, slugs that are in production are all machined out of solid stock with actual structural integrity. Nothing like what was being backyard boogied back in the 70’s. Take Bones for example (video link here: ua-cam.com/video/WXgE3I2J0GA/v-deo.htmlsi=FqICXrqAMyBA6xzR ) Over 700,000 miles state to state running slugs.
      In short: don’t let old stories from the 60’s and dated forum entries scare you away from today’s structurally solid machined parts that are sold/distributed worldwide by reputable companies and manufacturers.
