Can’t say it was the best in show since I didn’t see the other bikes. This is one of the most incredible builds I’ve seen though. Follow your heart.
His design and build ethics is the true essence of what bike building is. Trusting intuittion and just letting it flow and engineering the thing in auto pilot might seem wreckless but to witness it is magical. Its ahigher form of the biker addiction🎉
Wow! That was fukkin beautiful! That's always the other side of a true artist's heart, to envision such beauty into manifestation, and not have some understand what's going on inside of the creator as they manifest it. It's more and beyond the motorcycles, it's the raw beauty of the hearts behind them!
Thank you for sharing a piece of your awesome world with us. Many blessings to you your beautiful family and awesome friends.
Ride'on 🤙
Great documentary and build. It may not of won, but many of us who attended the show went to see your bike in person. It was impressive to see in real life. It’s something you can take pride in having built, no matter the end result.
So glad I watched this video. I was involved in accident in Nov and totaled my dream bike but your right we move on to the next project. Your video 100 helped. Ty. On to bigger and better.
Keep doing what you're doing.
Great story and real motivation 🔥🏆
Man you are talented
To think this didn’t win is absurd, I remember walking back to shoot more and more photos of this, every time I had downtime. The creativity and execution on this bike is fucking insane.
Awesome Video! Awesome bike man! I love the bike and think it looks sick!!!
That Oscar Mike banner is what's up. Thanks for supporting Noah and the OM family.
To watch this a see and here the passion you have is awsome the bike was amazing to see in the end keep on doing what you do.
That bike is some amazing work, wow! What a fabulous film, thanks to all of you.
This was a well-made documentary of real man being honest and open it delivers, beautifully. Awesome inspiration to self reflect.
Love your choppers. I've attended BF and appreciate your work.
Keep on keeping it real!
This was so well filmed and documented hats off to you brother. This is truly amazing craftsmanship you have set the bar with this one! ✊🏽🇺🇸
The sad thing about any event awards ceremonies etc, is that a CLICK can develop this machine is a real work of art, Indian Larry believed that it is a high form of art the Bike is Outstanding and a credit to you, stay strong and ignore the begrudgers...
you where robbed.. seeing it in person was so amazing (i love gold) and to stumble on this video i love it more man, take it as a win this bike will last through time it ain’t no gimmick it’s timeless
This was just amazing!! 🤘
Great bike, story & documentary.
I saw the "winning" bikes and I was absolutely shocked yours didn't place. I just knew it was going to be 1 or 2. The attention to detail on yours was just way above the rest.
Wonderful art, no matter what. Brutal All-In work on it. Wow!
Your skills are truly impressive. Congratulations Josh. Your bike is awesome. Happy new year !
Excellent video. Love the ending.. tasteful brother..
Absolutely fantastic work and attention to such detail 👍love it
Great doc, Josh. Really enjoyed it and very uplifting. Congrats man!
I really like the bars you made for the bike. I’d like to have a set for my springer softail
Amazing work ! So cool 🤘👌💪
Right 👍 on guys cool bikes...
Killer! 👊🏻⚡️🇺🇸
Competition and award shows are just for fun. I’ve participated in a few. I’d Win some and loose some. “Clicks” develop and they always turn political. Still a great way to show your work off. Keep that mentality and never get let down. With all that said, you built one beautiful bike. Keep doing what you love.
I always feel that those who truly deserve to win do not necessarily reap the awards. Fame and money always go to those who chase them, quite the opposite of true creators who often do not get anything.
Who's the animal that thinks it's a good idea to play music when someone's talking. Brutal!
It just goes to show ya, when is enuf ever enuf. The winner was picked by all the builders. This is the prime example why I only hang out with back yard builders and retired at 50, just so I could do more riding with beginners n enjoy the times they break on our lil trips. They all think I'm just an old bum n that's how I like it. You guys take care n make sure ya spend time wit ur families! Adios
I hate to say it. . . But this bike pushed into the corny territory of bike building that Orange county choppers occupied. Like where every little piece has to be special somehow or made to look like whatever. It's a piece of art, yes, but it just checks the boxes of complexity for the sake of it. Doesn't look like that thing has a soul to it or the rebellious spirit that a chopper needs. It's almost a theme bike. . . .
