My mate had a lovely Triumph chop, old school. He was on the M2 going to Reculver in Kent with a group of us, but he took a wrong turn and ended up heading for Dover. Then the valve gear inspection cap unscrewed, fell off and all his engine oil Poured out followed by a huge seize. One conrod was almost tied in a knot!
Thats just the way i like them, just enough parts wrapped around an engine to make it function as a motorcycle. No bags no touch screen, no fairing, no stupid stereo, god how i hate baggers.
A bit of hair-splitting here, which some may well disagree with: some of the bikes described as "bobbers" are actually choppers. A "bobber" means that stuff was removed from a stock bike, and the rear fender shortened (or "bobbed") but the frame remains unaltered. When ya chop the back end off to put a hardtail on, it's a chopper -- whether the neck has been raked or not. The first "digger" shown is what a digger really looks like; the nice chop at 8:09 isn't a digger in any way. That said ... what a wonderful video, of some terrific custom bikes!
I've always heard the triumph hard tails without raked front ends were bobbers.IDK. I saw one guy call the not too radically raked ones "chobbers". Thought that was funny.
The orange bike at 2:50 is a Phelon and Moore Panther. I had a 1965 model, 650 cc single. Not fast but plenty of torque. They were frequently sold with a sidecar. Made in Cleckheaton, York.
Nice video of chopper videos 🤙👍🤣😅 11:23 advantage of double Norton motors?? 👀 Expected some video of British bike chopper in UK Cheers from 🇦🇷 Argentina 🏍🏍
I remember back when i traded my only car a 1972 chevy conv. even trade for a radical Trump Chopper, my father thought i have went crazy. The Temps dropped down to 16 Degrees 6 months later and i`m trying to drive it to work and my dad had pity on me and sold me a van on payments. Thank you Jesus for Helping us even when we make bad decisions.
I only saw 1 bike in there that had a seat a chick could ride on, and I don’t think any chicks would try get that close to those exhaust pipes. My old Triumph chopper even though it was rigid frame probably had more chicks on it than all these bikes combined. I also used to carry a smaller woman size helmet. They really appreciated that after the last 10 rides they had to have a size 20 skid lid bouncing around on their head
You have to have a pillion seat, the number of times ive had ladies come up and want to have a ride with me...unless these guys are all married....like me haha
A guy I was working with showed me pictures of bike he was building. I asked him where the chix ride? He said on little pad on the fender. I said, no they’re not! I told him “ you don’t like chicks do you?” Ain’t no chick gonna ride on that. Girls like to ride on motorcycles. ( period ) Girls like a secure more reasonable seat to ride on, Girls like a nice ride on a motorcycle - not a terror filled ride from hell. I found that out many years ago.
Nice effort and credit where credit is due but after a lifetime of riding Norton 750cc and 850cc motorcycles plus riding beside some very well built and fast Triumphs the purist in me has led me to ask the question WHY ?.
They may be British engine's, but their definitely not British built. It was nice to see, and hear the Panther, I had a 600cc single as a kid, I'm sure you can imagine how hard it was to "kick over"?
Hey my video is in there hahaha. Cheers!
which one?
@@garethkeemore13 the one with Mohawk skinny jeans and a small shirt i think lmao
Instablaster.
I love triumphs, choppers , diggers , bobbers! Great video!!
Love the old brit choppers and the sound of them i grew up around them
Thank you- reminds me of the good old days for sure. I had a 54 Triumph and a 67- a Speed Twin and a Daytona

Great Video......No FUCKING MUSIC..NO TALKING.....JUST RUNNING MOTORCYCLES......😀😀😀😀😀
That's how to make a bike video - no commentary just lots of engine noise - congratulations
The second one is gorgeous..

It's not a bag it's a purse. Get it right. Sheesh.
Ya have to put the beer somewhere...

@@pauliebots Partly right -- early Triumphs were hardtails, OEM! So anything stripped from them to lighten the load, would indeed be a "bobber."

Mine was Imperial star but I change clutch housing to AJS 500 due to it was more sophicater than BSA which used cork instead of clutch plate now.
Beautiful... motorcycle...my friend....👍😎🇧🇷.....here in Brazil....love ❤️... Chopper..s
That double Norton at the end omg looks like one he'll of a road rumbling beast...
Oh, my, that bump felt good.
That low rider bike at the .045 mark was a lot like a bike I built using a kustom frame and tank from Arlen Ness back in 1968-73 period
That is one beautiful build. I did one similar to a 1960 pre unit. Diamond tank, and slammed with springers, no goose neck though.
great bikes great roads and great weather, now that IS the American dream,

Late 80s, 90s I had a T120 rigid bar hopper. Fun bike.
Muy buenas motos, y excelente video! Saludos
Thanks so much, some mad machines. :)
Just what I like to seek. Beautiful bikes, no helmets, no safety gear. Just get out and enjoy, no pressures 😮❤❤❤
I see no problem if it's just a low speed cruise to the local store or something.
Art in it's finest form!
I think Triumphs makes the best looking Choppers I had had a few.
Projeto Chopper .
Sucesso JAWA TINO .
Double norton is very cool, bet thats got surprise torq in it!!!
Everyone doesn't need a Harley. I always like the Bober style low down biker style looks like home built.
Did someone say 'everyone needs a Harley"? - because, yea, they dont.
@@StupidEarthlings yeah I should have wrote wants a Harley Davidson no one needs a bike to ride
Old school choppers look awesome! 70's an 80's
NOT chopper, no no wrong term. bopper have right, old school bopper.
@@mattivirta bobber you mean?lol
@@derekcollins1972
Maybe he meant The Big Bopper😂
@@mattivirta chobbers
Still seeing these amazing bikes at classic motocross scrambles in the uk
Those are some sweet bikes.
I have always loved My vintage Triumphs. But since my new knee, I’ve developed a taste for an electric leg.
87 people disliked this vid....Probably all electric moped owners
Very cool video
Cool thanks mate
格好いい👍
海外はやっぱり違うね。個性が最大限に引き出されて最高😃⤴️⤴️
Хорошая подборка. С качественым звуком двигателей😊
That TWIN Engine Norton!😝
That was cool
I love old Triumphs ❤

Man that digger 👍👍👍👍
Nice Panther.
the norton was different, but which one was amazing?
Gypsy rose was out of this world, and having owned and ridden a panther for a while, that ;)
Starts right away with UUUMMM UUUMMM UUUMMM UUUMMM, outa here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like Triumph is the engine of choice.
I am not into Harley's or cruisers or bobbers but I like the 70's choppers with British power , or Yamaha 650 or Honda 750 motors .
I remember British bike gangs when they transitioned from triumphs to honda sohc 750, and xs 650 motors, so you're correct.
Love that norton bobber
This is a real WTF? video but I liked it !
Some beautiful scoots. I loves me some British steel. Hipsters know they're dorks...don't they?
I don't think they do.
I don't think they do....
how much is the fuel tank capacity of the bike?
2nd bikebadass... nice rear tire.. good idle
That double Norton is a death trap, much less getting your pants legs caught up in the pulleys
Loe that #2bike thanks for sharing.
Very nice
Nice 👍
You have to have a pillion seat, the number of times ive had ladies come up and want to have a ride with me...unless these guys are all married....like me haha

Not just choppers , bobbers also ;)
fuck bobbers they are all chopped =CHOPPERS fuck your twenty first century lingo
@@camgnilpe9300 chobbers
0:40 saved us from "another boring bunch of choppers".
I have a bsa that should be in this video, I just have to get it running
Great machines
Love my Triumph America 03.. but keep the exhaust keeping both legs warm ok.
Superbe vidéo 👊👍

Exelente video felicidades
Thanks!
Nice effort and credit where credit is due but after a lifetime of riding Norton 750cc and 850cc motorcycles plus riding beside some very well built and fast Triumphs the purist in me has led me to ask the question WHY ?.
It’s either in your blood or it ain’t
66 is my favorite of these but not real big on ape hangers. The chain shifter on the rat bike is just absurd.
Likes the Norton.
BAD ASS Sloper! For Sale?
I’m 58 going to build me one more before I’m too old Triumphs Rule
Hell yes. Life too short. Do it now!
As Arnie says .... do it do it now!
suspension that works at your age,
Just turned 60 finishing off a 1980 t140e ,back to my youth ! Go for it
Jawa 350 twin at 63!
Almost there.

Music
😍
Comment about the bagger : if we all felt that way there would only bluegrass music. Would be fine ,but life would not be as fulfilling
nice
i love triumph twins
Мне интересно как обстоит дело с синхронизацией у мота с двойными и т.д. двигателями...
and norton twins,i had a 750 fastback
That first one looked like a rush job,that excellerator cable hanging out there was plain lazy
What the heck is going on with the last bike...2 engines 😳
Anyone know where to get a stand like the one on 2:40 ??
They may be British engine's, but their definitely not British built. It was nice to see, and hear the Panther, I had a 600cc single as a kid, I'm sure you can imagine how hard it was to "kick over"?
6:43 💪😎👌
Yeah man, Brit Bikes.
Who needs toes I gots a Hogslayer!.
I love the semi swastika mirrors
I love this bike, however, the "bars" are ridiculous. Must be way lower and compact, with good steer leverage.
6:47 1966 Triumph Chopper is the kind of baby thst I want to own.
Forever Two Wheels
Those Brits know how to build um
Wherei get a t110 or a royal Enfield?
Those bikes may have been born in Britain but they're 100% American.
Real bikers wear boots common Sense isn't that common anymore smart bikers wear helmets
❤❤❤❤so rad!!!!!(
Spoke wheels are the best.
sounds like its doin 100 mph but looks about 25 mph
those triumphs are lil thumpers
Fast noch geiler wie ne -Harley....
