    To be honest, the unedited bit at the beginning seemed just fine to me.

    CUT!!! Take 2 and action!! Brother we could listen to you blabber on for hours! Wish i knew 1/10th of what you and your dad know

      I wonder how popular a series where once a month, he releases a video where it just blabbers on about various motorcycles with no real purpose in mine, just talking, and sharing his knowledge. I think Id watch it.

    Thought the uneddited bit at the beginning was comical, not everyone is perfect n this makes me respect the channel more ngl, it shows how much work can be put into these videos

    Matt, just learned of your father's passing. You have my most sincere condolences and my utmost respect. Dale's encyclopedic knowledge and passion for motorcycles has most certainly been passed down and lives vibrantly through you. Thank you to Dale and yourself Matt.

    Every morning I can click on a WTT video and learn something new about transportation history before I even get out of bed in the morning. How cool is that.

    Hey! I had a 1948 WLH. Bought it from a Harley dealer that bought a railroad car packed with MilSurp WLH machines. They were "brand new" never assembled scooters. This was 1966. I was in high school. He cleaned off the cosmoline. Painted the frames black. Springer front fork. Painted them various colors (red/white, blue/white, green/white, black/white, white with various color accent striping.
    Mine was black/white. In 1966 for $350.00 I rode it home. My all time favorite Harley. I always liked the side valve Harleys. Not speed burners but always got me home.

    I like seeing how dedicated you are at giving a great presentation. Once this pandemic has eased going to make the shore to shore trip to see WTT.
    Back in the 80's had a 49 WL as my primary transportation. Loved it! Now wish I'd never sold it. Unless I can find a basket case, I'll never be able to afford another.

    Only been to WHEELS THROUGH TIME, one time, best time I have had a any kind of museum, or show.
    You and your crew make everyone way more intelligent about the history of motorcycles, and the culture that pushes it along.
    I will be back soon.
    You are exactly like your Dad , your knowledge is endless.
    Thank you very much for your hospitality when I was there.
    I love the way you start these bikes, and the way you ride them through the museum. I own a couple of later Harleys, but I love all things on two or three wheel s.

    My first Harley was a 1941 45ci Sportsolo I got in 1969 I paid $300.00 for it. I worked on it for a year with the help of my cousin who was an old Harley mechanic. I had it one summer until a truck backed out in front of me and totalled it.
