I'm a TRIUMPH guy, but lovin ridin next to my Harley buddies too. Two of the best motorcycles in the world if oyu ask me. Both have their outlaw heritage at one time or another.
Limey bikes are ok, I had a 68' Norton when I was a kid. Fast, fun, loud bike at the time. Graduated to a real bike in my 20s, HD. Nothing is like a Panhead though, Nothing like em'.
I have had a chinese 125cc "Whoflungdung" for 10 years now. Still going strong. Pased my test an a BSA Bantam early 1960's Whats red and throbs between your legs? GPO bantam or Aussie posty bike. Check our "Itchy Boots" UA-cam.
I started on a friends Pacemaker Whizzer motor bike when I was 8 years old in 1949. I bought my first Doodlebug motor scooter when I was 10. I mowed lawns. When I was 14 I traded a 37 Chevy, a Winchester 12 ga. single shot shot gun and 20 dollars for a 1942 Flat Head 45. I am now 80 years old and ride a 99 Harley Softail Custom. Had several bikes in between. Rode an 84 Iron Head Sportster for 23 years. Wish I still had that old 45. Side shift on the tank and foot clutch. No front brake because the cable was broke. I learned how to keep it running on my own. I could not afford Harley parts. That old 45 was almost bullet proof. It just kept on running. After I graduated from high school I never had a car for the first year. Only a motorcycle. Those were the days. I rode winter and summer. Now I pick my days. I have been retired from working as a petro pipeline trouble shooter for 16 years. I have a very understanding wife. All three of my boys have had bikes. My oldest built his from the ground up. He is a machinist and built many of his own parts. Never was a hard core biker by any means, just always loved riding Harleys. Probably only ridden 150 thousand miles in my life.
I don't ride motorcycles.But I play music.Bikers are some of the best music fans and most fun people to hang out with in the universe.I love my biker friends and brothers.And I do believe in "SNITCHES ARE A DYING BREED!!!"
Speaking of only having a motorcycle for transportation. Around 1990 I ŕode my rigid 1976 shovel chopper from March 17 to November 26th in Saskatoon..love DAC hes been my musical hero since i was a kid..
Thank you VideoBob, for asking David all the good questions. Maybe a few of the wannabes needed to hear his remarks to spark them into some serious introspection about why they ride, and they'll wake up someday soon with a new outlook on life. Not to rag on them, but they are sort of like all the rockers who bitched about how they hated the very existence of blues music, and then as soon as blues got more popular and more mainstream, they turned around telling everyone "We were really just blues players all along", yeah...avoiding the notes that didn't fall into the five-note pentatonic scale, not comprehending the least thing about expression or feeling. Fashion victims who just HAD to be seen profiling around the town on something they could afford but didn't understand. But I'm not here to cast any more stones at this point, I just want to say that David has simply stated his mind, and from that we get a positive reaction in our gut. If I may, let me elaborate by saying that when you know every part of something , when it is you breathing on it under the knife, when you embrace it for what it is, and utter an oath of fealty to it, when you know its limitations and it's shining glory, it becomes a part of you, and all of life becomes a constant desire to remain tightly bonded with it and within yourself. It makes you what you are, and it shapes the way you approach everything else you get involved with. I wasted a lot of my life before I ever found that out. It had to just about crush me before I discovered it, but from here on out, I can die happy any damn day! David, you have more wisdom than you may know. You matter so damn much to so many people, I wonder if you are aware of all the people who are better off with you in the world. My most heartfelt thanks. Ride on, Brother!!
I've owned Harley's for over 45 years and my first Harley was a whopping $1,200. and I was an instant Outlaw. At 22 yrs old I did things that I look back on and wonder what the f**k was I thinking hanging out with known Outlaws. I have so much respect for someone that did what their hearts told them to do right or wrong. Your past is who you are!
I remember when me and my late husband were coming back from Sturgis George Christie and his prospecting members pulled in he said to my late husband he says you know I just might need to take her back to California with me my husband said to George George you don't have enough members or enough prospects to take it
@@galvatron0810 crazy the digital world is kind of a representation of a 5th dimension. Being able to see the world and the time it has gone through in a singular moment.

Saw Coe at the star lounge in Raleigh N.C. and while I was having a beer at the bar I realized that the old guy next to me was Coe’s dad and after I bought him a couple of beers he said if I wanted to get Dave’s autograph I better get it quick because he was putting him to bed after the show. Dave was a little off his game that night kept forgetting some words or what part of the song he was at but nobody cared because this was David Allen Coe and he was in our town performing for us and it was great...
@@Cojamc I also met his wives selling T-shirt and cassettes and you should never call a man a liar that lived it while your puny ass was probably shopping at Kmart with your mama while the event was going on you little piss ant mommas boy…
Wow that is freaking crazy! I decided to watch this video a second time a few weeks later and just realized the interviewer is freaking video bob on UA-cam!!! Lets goooooooo!
Rode a 1100 shadow across the american midwest camping under the stars the entire way through sun and storms. A harley someday till then ill love my honda.
I did start out on a small 500cc Honda. Then a 900 vulcan. Then a 1300 yamaha. Now I have a road king and man I love my Harley Davidson but yes we all start out on a Honda or some other bike lol
I remember in the early 80's when a guy finally got his first Harley, all our people would build a big bonfire and throw the rice burner in it as celebration. Those were fun days.
@@arthurmchugh5184 it was a different time. Let it go. You probably weren't even born yet. Hasn't been like that, since before I started riding Harleys in the early 90's.
@@PanM8 fuck you! I started riding in the 70s and I wouldn't be seen on one of those chrome air compressors!! Just back from 185 miles on my 85.000 mile Ducati!! 😁🏍
That is exactly the kind of shit that will keep me from EVER getting on the CHROME BAND WAGON! people like that makes me despise HD riders in general!!
Don't give a damn if its a moped or a boss hoss I ya love 2 wheels it's all the same, trust me I've rode em all, each and every one has a personality, and all of them scream FREEDOM!
Everyone has a "starter" bike. For me, it was a '68 650cc Triumph. Then a '70 750cc Triumph. Then came the Honda 750. Then all the Harleys came into my life. A couple sportsters, then a Electra Glide Sport, then a Tour Glide, and after that a Heritage Softtail and then a '03 Twin Cam Softtail . I've been riding for over 40 yrs now. I rode in a club for a few yrs, and a whole lot more yrs as an independent rider. Which ever floats your boat, just ride!!!
Man, I would love to get one of those old '68 or '70 Triumphs! Even now sitting here in '23 those old bikes just call to me. Like DAC said you could fix a lot with just a pair of pliers, a screwdriver & some duct tape or wire. Being able to maintain & fix your junk on the side of the road if need be is a part of freedom & independance so many bikers past & present sought.
Mystical your story sounds an awful lot like mine. I started with a tote goat worked up to Honda Suzuki’s then I went for quite a while without a bike then I got a bull taco to 50% five speed it used to be Jim Pomeroy in Evel Knievel‘s training bike Knievel work for Pomeroys in Yakima anyway, I finally got me a Harley at 68 years old. I was able to afford a old 99 Electra glide custom. It was all I could buy just the other day. Can’t wait till it gets here so I can ride it.
Let me sum it up like this this...back in the old days when you'd see bikers, you'd think, "I'm in danger!" Now, when you see bikers you think..."Oh cool, maybe they got gum!"
+Drew Arriola I love him, but the wig's not fierce. It just looks odd. He's such a fucking legend, and doesn't need it. Just shave the dome...www.wdrb.com/story/22605297/benefit-held-in-louisville-for-country-singer-david-allan-coe
Bought my first real bike when I was 18 it was a used 1965, 650 Triumph Bonneville that was in1969 and my first HD was a 1973 FX back in the AMF days.Sold my VW bug and Triumph to get the loan. Out the door for $2,500. a hell of a lot of money back then for this broke sailor. I was stationed in Little Creek, VA and he is right about not made in the USA the front forks had Japan on them. My first accessory was a repair manual. You had to learn how to wrench your bike back then.
Met DAC several times; scared ,not too bad and then, yeah, he's alright ! He wore the colors , owned only a IRON HORSE ( LOL) and wrote beautiful songs .He " called me by my name " once ( he recognized me) and yep; 1953 PanHead ; saviour ,Amen frame ; belt driven & suicide shift ! BEAUTIFUL ; my first ride ; a toddlerwith my Daddy ! Anyways, everybody has a story and he OWNS his ! There's more to him than what most people know ! Respect is earned and DAC certainly has earned his ! Oh, and I love your story ; 99% ••• lol 😊
I remember watching my old man and friends, in a long line, against a curb, the hop up and down, sometimes in unison, other times at multi intervals, god bless DAC and RIP SKJ, may not be pretty but it runs like a top and hear the cow bell.
Ask him about the Panhead song: She's hard to get started She's always so cold In the mornings I find her - She's looking so old There's so many miles I've been down that road once or twice She's not much to look at When we ride thru town But I know when the chips fall She won't let me down She knows how to run And she don't run around on her man......
In the words of the great Waylon Jennings( a True Outlaw)..."Here comes Big, Bad, David Allen Coe, Comes to town to fight the system...double parks on music row".
Hate that I'm young enough to miss a lot of music I love today. But at least I didnt have to go through the HONDA-Davidson years. Cant believe all the AMF stripe shirts and logos at the dealer now. Made feel proud carrying out $1000 worth of Willie G chrome past it all.
When I started getting into it as an older teen / young adult you had to wait for for 6 months or more to get a new bike unless you wanted one of the few that were on the show room floor. They held there value also. Now the market is flooded with dressers that weekend bikers got tired of washing and parking on the drive way on Sunday afternoons. Only a fool or a person with way to much money would buy a brand new one today IMO when you can buy an utra classic or similar with under 40 thousand miles on it for 6 or 7 grand used. I have seen them with well under 30 thousand on them for under 7 grand. that will hold it's value for resale. You can buy it in the winter and ride it for two seasons and sell it the same as you paid for it and it's still a good de
Harley Davidson made its bones off 1%ers, of course they will never admit it. They pander to people with lots of cash. I bought my first flathead 45 chopper for 450.00 dollars. Second bike 56 panhead frame with brand new 1977 shovel motor for 2k in 1978 boy times have changed!
I've got an old beat up 90 f150 for hauling stuff if i need. Other than that im on one of my bikes. All year around. Hell sometimes when the ol lady takes the kids to the store i dont even ride with her. I just follow on my bike.
He's the man for us country music lovin'H-D Riders,he's ole school,and so am I.Sandman 1%ER. Court Jesters M.C. Prez. DAC,wheres your song of the old Panhead?
Saw David Allan Coe in a biker bar in Fairmont,WV many many years ago. I'll never forget it. What a show.
You have to respect a guy like David Allan Coe who earned everything he has. I would love to see him in concert some day.
patluvsvettes he played a one off unannounced outside of Pittsburgh in the early 00's...he was great, exactly how you'd imagine.
Ask the people in Eldon, Missouri about DAC....
me me not 110% sure how to take that...that is one vague yet ominous post, man.
Josh Dredd .. He ripped a bunch of towns folk off after he skipped town from his "museum" he opened in Eldon. My family was some that got stuck.
I wish I could like that 2 times!!
listen to at least one DAC song every day. Thank you Sir for the tunes
i knew his former manager in Johnson City TN, about 25 years ago. She was a great Lady!
So true.. I started on a little Honda mini 50 in 1974ish. Had many brands over my life.. finally my 1st Harley at 54 years old.

If you can't start something that has a kicker you don't need to be riding anything. A lot of guys can't even hardly start a dirt bike.
ah don't worry about the starter, the whole damn thing is electric now.
I remember watching my old man and friends, in a long line, against a curb, the hop up and down, sometimes in unison, other times at multi intervals, god bless DAC and RIP SKJ, may not be pretty but it runs like a top and hear the cow bell.
Made my life a lot easier, except the fucking thing breaks, and drains my battery saves my leg sometimes tho...
, but it makes it a lot nicer for us old guys with bad back
Seems like a really nice guy
We call them RUBS " Rich Urban Bikers"
Cherie I call them A-holes.
Why dont we hear more of these awesome musicians?
Because he is a true Outlaw and the music industry does not like him
Nothing but respect for this man, laying down some real knowledge.
Ask him about the Panhead song:
She's hard to get started
She's always so cold
In the mornings I find her -
She's looking so old
There's so many miles
I've been down that road once or twice
She's not much to look at
When we ride thru town
But I know when the chips fall
She won't let me down
She knows how to run
And she don't run around on her man......
In the words of the great Waylon Jennings( a True Outlaw)..."Here comes Big, Bad, David Allen Coe, Comes to town to fight the system...double parks on music row".
CAPTWINEHEAD the difference is Waylon had talent
rock n roll he also wasn't an outlaw....
If you ever heard Waylon say it. "Avoid David Allan Come if you can."
@@rocknroll7316 you must not know much of the guys music. He’s also written hits for some of the best
Love riding my old Norton hi rider with my Harley friends etc (RUBs)

Hate that I'm young enough to miss a lot of music I love today. But at least I didnt have to go through the HONDA-Davidson years. Cant believe all the AMF stripe shirts and logos at the dealer now. Made feel proud carrying out $1000 worth of Willie G chrome past it all.
David Alan Coe and Harley Davidsons forever.
If David Allen Coe wants to call a Goldwing a Redwing, you let him call it a Redwing.. he’s fuckin David Allen Coe!!
Before his time. He didn't give a fuck and did what he wanted. Such a fuckin outlaw, that the outlaws wouldn't even tangle with him.
I started out with a Honda, and I think I'll stick with it
lol That is insane. My step dad is a truck driver and he has one. He isn't a criminal either. Just a hard worker.
I ride a Harley Davidson Sportster and it's the only thing I own.

When I started getting into it as an older teen / young adult you had to wait for for 6 months or more to get a new bike unless you wanted one of the few that were on the show room floor. They held there value also. Now the market is flooded with dressers that weekend bikers got tired of washing and parking on the drive way on Sunday afternoons. Only a fool or a person with way to much money would buy a brand new one today IMO when you can buy an utra classic or similar with under 40 thousand miles on it for 6 or 7 grand used. I have seen them with well under 30 thousand on them for under 7 grand. that will hold it's value for resale. You can buy it in the winter and ride it for two seasons and sell it the same as you paid for it and it's still a good de

*DAC is a legend*
Harley Davidson made its bones off 1%ers, of course they will never admit it. They pander to people with lots of cash. I bought my first flathead 45 chopper for 450.00 dollars. Second bike 56 panhead frame with brand new 1977 shovel motor for 2k in 1978 boy times have changed!
I've got an old beat up 90 f150 for hauling stuff if i need. Other than that im on one of my bikes. All year around. Hell sometimes when the ol lady takes the kids to the store i dont even ride with her. I just follow on my bike.
That's right Ohio baby..oh yea..David Allan grew up here. Belmont County!!! USA
DAC is my HEEE-ROWW lol. Sad to see him getting on, but also happy for his longevity.
I thought I was the only one that had those thoughts, good to know .
