  • It's our pleasure to present this long form feature of our ride from San Francisco to LA for Born Free 12. Hundreds of miles, constant roadside repairs, and 6 days of ripping two wheels. We have countless thanks to extend to the many folks that helped us along the road especially the Cabot family for hosting the rowdy lot of us while in LA.

    "Big Sur" -- Magic Castles! That Surf-a-delic guitar solo just exudes California coast soul. I've always thought that tune would go great with a bike ride along the CA coast. Thanks for using that tune in this fantastic video! A shout out to California Choppers and Mazi Moto! -- A former resident of Santa Rosa, CA.

      @@947w0rks -- Thanks a million! That tune, "Big Sur" by Magic Castles exemplifies what California is all about -- fantastic scenery, choppers and good times riding with your pals and gals. Besides being in a band back in the 1960s, I was also a fledging chopper jockey. That was before Fonda and Hopper's little motorcycle movie. Ed Roth's do-it-yourself pamphlets namely "California Choppers" were my inspiration. You cats know what to build and ride. Born Free is THE main event! Build right. Ride safe. More clicks from the good old days on the way. -- W

    That custom extended springer on that righteous shovelhead at 11:38 looks like a Columbus Enterprises springer or one from Fury. That fork looks like the one my pal ran on his 1965 panhead back in the 1970s. Thanks, Yama, for the great riding footage. It's the best I've seen on UA-cam! Ride safe, Yama, Blue, Mike, Joey, and the rest of your crew. Thanks, Joey Ukrop, for the great photo work!

    Man I feel the pain. Had a chopped 74 Ironhead. Frickin awesome looking bike. Barebones but it was a bitch. Always wrenching, finicky S&S super E. Had nightmares about it falling apart ( literally nightmares). Finally got back to good old EFI push a button springer. Whew.😅 No more kick, kick, kick. Too old for that shit now. Kudos to you guys for the patience and endurance to keep going. You’re young enjoy👍

Had a chopped Honda 500 4-cyc then a 1974 XLH 1000 with 4in over forks -then i went 'sensible" -started long affairs with BMWs and Triumphs with a few Japanese models thrown in

    ...never saw such a stubborn spindle! anyway; in all these years riding old bikes what I ha been seeing is that most of the failures are due to take the road on a bike that have not the basic service; routine service and general check out like if the throttle wire is ok... add to that, that many only use them to go "around the block" and suddenly they demand a lot for that bike...I am not saying that these are the cases, but is what I have been seeing with old iron; so the problem are not the old bikes but the lack of servicing and a few bucks to throw it to buy couple of more reliable parts.
    Cheers

And bought a 2006 EVO bike thats electric start! First time ever having one! "Electric start" But you guys make me proud of the next gen of REAL bikers! Building bikes has been the best part of my life! And the friends I've met along the way! I hope you will look back on this time in your life and smile as i do! Keep the rubber side down! And keep doing what you do! Thanks for the vids Brother!

    About the broken Honda rear-wheel,..if you tighten the rear-axle nut too much you put too much pressure on the bearings and the spacer…especially if it’s a thin one and the what happens is the friction will “weld” the bearings to the axle….and yes you’ll have serious problems.
    My buddy tried that and he have to toss the whole wheel….!
