- Last minute chopper changes, are we gonna make it? Mock-up has gone “ok.” Last minute I found and switched to a cooler rear fender which means Jeff Phipps needs to tweak the seat. Now we send off the frame for powder and the tank and fender for paint.

If it makes you feel any better , I once built an 80 cu in shovel head chopper in 14 days on a bet! Painted running, down the road hard tail in 14 days. Won the bet! It can be done, so hang in there.
Hoping you do make it because I can’t wait to see it at Sturgis. Can’t believe that we’re inside of 10 weeks already. Time flying by.
Coming together nicely, I enjoy the chopper updates. Can't wait to see the final "Beautiful Loser"
Like seeing an actual bike build. It's not an OCC show. You're doing great
No better
I really love how you both just stop or slow down for your Daughter....
That is so important for everything more then what Mother's and especially Father's.
It's the little things children remember for their whole lives.
You have no idea when your kids that are 27 or so and out of no where go remember when we did that thing when I was 8.....😢😢😢
Yes it makes you very sad but yet very proud.
Now to make him get out of race cars and a nice relaxing bike.
Bykerdogrv now just outside Ft Meyer's Beach
Can't wait to see it done
Hi da Monk, it's getting there, definitely seeing progress, keep it going,it's gonna be ok.
Hope so!
6 weeks? You can do it 💪 if the wiring turns out fine, you will get it done way before your deadline. Cannot wait to see your face when the beautiful contenders engine starts for the first time . Have you considered live streaming that event? Would be mega cool 😎
Building a chopper it always changes. It seems the chopper will tell you what it wants and what it wants to look like. Great job, and keep up the great work.
That’s exactly how it’s going. This fender is a huge improvement, it just set me back a day.
NOT a Problem.... nothing like coming down to the wire on a project.
You aren't the only on complaining about the heat & humidity in Florida. Sister in-law in Daytona was saying the same thing you were just yesterday. Looks like you're progress on the bike is normal. A chopper is always an ongoing project. But from my outsider's view you're making great progress and it's coming together nicely. Can't wait to see the finished product.
I know you have too many Tex to read them all but please thank your father for me. I’m a scout leader. We put the flags on the national cemetery in Nashville with the other troops in the area made a point of actually reading the names before we put the flags in front to remember them ❤️🇺🇸
👍👍👍👍
Thank you
You can do this it's turning out awesome 💯 so far can't wait to see it in Sturgis I hope
Fingers crossed!
As long as you’re having fun with it that’s all that matters ….cant wait to see it when your done
I had a great day 63, sweating and ride about 300 miles. We had the Byers Lake Memorial Park run today. It's 147 miles north or Anchorage. Beautiful day, so lots of bikes were out and made the run. I figured without counting about 250-275. Home now and it looks like it's about to rain.
Looking great. Can't wait to see it finished
You are getting there
I like it.😁👍
Another vote for the new fender. much better. love the attention to the little details, even ones you can't see. Because the build isn't about the competition... its about your personal growth.
Perfectly put. I appreciate it!
You must really like abusing yourself....... but I believe in you and your many many talents Bro!!!! Keep up the great job!!! I hope you Dad is doing fine and thank him for his service.
From the too!
Good morning Da- Monk! The chopper is coming together and looking good . Keep up the great work!
Thanks 👍
coming along nicely
Yah RIGHT. Thats what he said.
Overkill with JB Weld? Bro, save some sanding. Your welds can't be that bad!
I'm enjoying your journey.
Love your vids. Keep em coming
Love the chopper updates!
More to come!
looks like progress is being made! also looks like you have some encouraging commenters here too! lmao
I think you need a mini split in the garage!
More heat less wire smooths welds out
Please don't trust that bracket weld. Shorten your wire stick out and get closer.
Oh yeah, I spent a long time after fixing all of that and doing the underside as well. She’s solid as a rock now!
I love the JB weld idea. Cleans it up nice and if you didn’t do it some asshat would point it out. Take pride in what you can hide.
You spend endless hours in your garage. You film your show in the garage. You work on your bikes in the garage. You have a truck, a car, a mobile home and ten motorcycles. You live in Florida. There's nothing worse than high heat and humidity. Why don't you take The one last step and add AC. To your garage. Just curious.
People don’t understand that step. I restore 2 stroke bikes from 100 cc on up you know to keep me sane. while I’m bolt on building my SG, a little more custom on my brakeout and basically a restore on a friends sportster. So I got a GT 380 2stroke. With those I make them run and find missing parts,. Make notes rip it all apart powder coat the frame and spall parts then freshen up or rebuild the motor. Hope I can find all the bolts after powder and paint and put them together 3-4 month minimum project and that easy compared to what you doing. Building a road race bike from the ground up and it’s been so slow going.
Thanks for showing your frustrations so I don’t feel alone. 3am I’m going in the house.
Ohhh, we care!

Hey Pro, any cooler if you're on the water down there?
AJ 👊🏽
I think so, but I’m about 15 miles inland.
Pro-Glass, filler. You gotta know how to mix it.
