So it STARTS! Let's engrave the 1979 Ironhead Sportster XLH1000
After I have built the engraving machine finally came the test.
I have disassembled the 1979 Ironhead and while rebuilding the front forks I have decided to engrave the alluminium lower ends.
Let us see if I can deliver a reasonable result.

ROAD PIRATES Bikers' picnic in Mangaweka on '07 Triumph Bonneville America

This little party, hang out was organised by great group of guys from Road Pirates S.MC. Beautiful location, tranquil, by the river and white cliffs. We had fun in the evening and talked to late night or early morning? But the universe decided to screw everything up. Four our riders went for a ride to near town for breakfast. Couple hours later we still haven't heard from them! Guys sent a scou...

@@wenost4350 thaaaaanks heaps
You are multi talented my friend, that's for sure. Your engraving, to me, is unreal.
@@MothershipVideos haha thank you. Some would say I'm just stubborn as and don't like to give up even if I'm hurting haha
I carve pounamu bro it’s the same process just use a micro machine dremel and carbide bits it would be faster and easier for you to.
@@manatuhou1165 hey bro. Yeah I thought of that but I think all the guys who do metal work use pneumatic gravers. Maybe due to better control or the look of it at the end or speed in not exactly sure but you don't really see anyone doing this type of work to metal with Dremels. Glass and stone 100% metal I am not sure
Epic bro epic 👊🏼💀🤘🏼
@@keironjohns2585 thank man appreciated
Rome wasn't built in a day. This is going to look great. Time to yourself to process things is sometimes what we need. As always love your content.
@@adrianyates4609 thanks heaps mister. If it was built in a day no one would appreciated. And then maybe when people see my ride on the street and saw snippets of my videos they will understand the time and hard work what went into this
Wicked work good things take time

Cool shit bro , so how do I get my hands on one of those engraving tools from?
They are really expensive. I made this one. In my previous videos is how I did it
@@WrenchingIrons hey thanks
@@mrfatbobrider1969 no worries
Awesome as bro, be careful though can get frostbite symptoms blood will leave your fingers from vibration, absolutely Awesome work.

Cool as going to good on bike
@@SimonButler-q7q thanks man. Appreciated
Very well done good onya😅
@@terrynorman8980 cheers bud
Good on ya bro... Everybody needs a little time for themselves at some point for whatever reason... Doing something that stimulates oneself and keeps you preoccupied normally helps too,whether that be just sitting at a favourite spot taking in the sounds and enjoying the scenary or working on something you like doing or going for a ride or drive whatever takes you away from the day to day bs... Hey great work bro,that's time consuming and tedious work that only certain people can do who have patience 🙄😂15hrs🤪 That's dedication and determination bro😂 Thanks for sharing bro,great vlog as always,that hardtail going to be bad ass... Have a great day and weekend brother!🔥😜🙌
@@razbishara6491 thanks my brother. Now I watch the video and think that maybe I didn't even have to put it in there but when it is raw on your mind it is hard to ignore. Thank you for always kind messages and being so damn supportive haha. Makes it worth it for me to make these videos. Thanks heaps bro again! Awesome new year to you
Beautiful mahi bro... Yes definitely can see a lot of koru in the designs... A bloody lot of work but the end result will be outstanding and definitely worth it... She will be a one of a kind ironhead... Happy New Years Mario to you n your whanau,stay safe n well n keep up the great work bro... Well done brother🙌🔥😜
Happy new year to you and yours as well. Especially lots of great health bro. Everything else work itself out if we have the health. And yes once all done she will be like none other even if only a small block.
That is really amazing bud is it kind of a koru theme? This takes me back to my brother in laws Live To Ride magazines in the late 80s. Choppers with intricate engine engraving and chrome for miles.
Yes indeed koru designs everywhere. This bike is my Ode to new Zealand

Lesley was a close friend of mine, it was gut wrenching to hear about the incident, I was heading up to the camp when I heard of their passing. Thanks for sharing some footage of their last night.
thanks buddy, yeah weird stuff to have a good time few hours before and than wake up to that catastrophe, tought time
Nice Bike bro mean
Thanks Bro!
Condolences bro from redrum mc Aotearoa .Very sad time for all us riders in nz especially for road pirates and anyone on the ride
yeah brother thank you for your message, much appreciated!!!!! yeah big loss for our bikie community!
@ it was great to see you at the treaty march in Wellington aswell you caught me off guard walking past next time I’ll introduce myself better ,stay safe
@@manatuhou1165 yeah bro please do, it is always a bit fun, i put my face out there so when people hollar at me I am always trying to put pieces together who is who haha :)
Thanks for the share, must have been darn difficult, condolences. Bet that was a long ride home from the head perspective. Lost a couple on the road over the years. I find when in the saddle, bikes are great for clearing one's head, but by golly can also fill it with memories, reminders and people past and typically when you least expect it. Has caused pause for thought on the side of the road a few times over the years. Take care and shiny side up aye, see ya out on the tarmac one day, Regards, Anaru.
Yeah bro too true. First time for me close hand. I heard about people leaving us but nothing like this . Tough days for the families. ❤️
sad as bro
Yeah man thanks
7 years ago I started a group called NZJC New Zealand Japanese Cruisers Mangaweka was the site we had for our first rally great camp site a few of the Road Pirates are ex NZJC members good group of people mate cheers for now Gary

I don't know bro . Seams to me the days of the protest are going to crap . To easy to complain on the internet . Like your self I have faced a few riot squads in my life time and people just don't stand together like they did in the old days . There was a time when we all stood together and made a noise about it and stood on the door step as one , now the shops are running out of tampons because of all the pussies hahaha
Good on you for showing up and supporting bro... That bloody sissy bar again... Take care n safe ride brother🙌
Probably too long that sissy bar. Shakes too much. Thank you brother
Was this an organised ride? I didn't hear about it if it was.
Yeah they were posting in fb about it. But posting is one thing and sharing to all bike pages is another. ... Fail
What a shame.
