I love that you've made Craig such a large part of your channel. He's a genuine dude.
Yeah he ok
Yea he aight
@@BikesandBeards i have a cycle ray headlight if you need one...
@@BikesandBeards and a rear stand..
Craig is the man
CHOCK THE WHEELS!!!!! 😂
Tim's the kind of guy you can take him coffee in the morning, sit down beside while he works, listen to stories and his advice, then before you know it the sun's gone down and it's almost midnight! People like him are so valuable!!
Tim is the man
I’ve been totally enjoying this whole journey! To be honest, a lot of places don’t really show you all the behind-the-scenes work that goes into these things. so this is extra special!
plenty of channels do. you should venture out into the TH-cam universe more
@@SixWheelsDown I know there’s a couple car TH-camrs . That rebuild salvaged vehicles. But generally it’s modern vehicles. The history is just what I find interesting. Do you have any suggestions for any other channels?
@@ethandavid9800 old bikes or cars?
@@ethandavid9800 i believe Mustie1 is gonna have some good stuff for ya.
@@ezgezg8618 Honestly, I kind of like both. When it comes to older cars. I watch Vice grip garage, roadkill and a few others. As far as bikes. This is probably one of the only channels. Would you recommend any channels? If so, which ones do you enjoy most!
Bro... This junkyard series is brilliant!
Love seeing different people with 2wheel addiction.
Thanks glad your enjoying it
It's Appearing as if orange county choppers was a LIE and men really DO get along with each other and don't try robbing each other every day.
Bikes and beards appears to be bucking the 40 year trend of male attacks.
NO, I think bikes and beards IS swimming with sharks and they need protection.
Rescue harley from the drug dealer gangs and the baby boomer hoarders and YOU might be onto something.
Return it to an every man's product and a bit of sporting gentleman's passion and YOU might be getting something done in life.
But I'm certain, the drug SCUM have done a number on harley, far too great to imagine.
A whole sick generation has to die before a sportser can return to being just a sportser.
Australia has a law that turns every sportser fan into a criminal on a watch list.
A sick society that's out of control.
Glad to see Tim is going to be part of the project. That racing bike he's got is pretty sweet.
We should go and see Tim race sometime
@@BikesandBeards How did Tim find out about Bikes and Beards and the Harley Davidson? Was he a fan of the channel...or did someone alert him to it?
Blue on grey or blue on black is always incredible looking, especially if you go with that blue you loved so much and put it in the factory Harley Racing scheme but blue/black or blue/grey instead of orange/brown. (which in itself is a striking paint scheme) Also making shorty large bore racing pipes for it would be really cool. basically what you are wanting to make is called a Street Tracker, looks like a Flat Tracker race bike but for riding on the street.
I’m really enjoying this journey. Such amazing builder’s.
Man, Tim is really knowledgeable. Reminds me of the old guys I used to sit around and talk shop with as a young guy. Can't wait to see this bike done!
This project has really kept me interested . Amazing the knowledge some of these people have with these bikes. Can't wait to see the next episode
More to come!
It is cool seeing him go over it with these old timers. They all have such varied knowledge. The more they talk the better a picture you get of what's going on with these bikes.
This revival is turning out to be an awesome journey! Can't wait to see the progress.
Just realized I met this guy at a gas station in charlotte nc. His Ford caught my eye and my road king caught his. We talked for a few and he opened up his trailer and let me get some pictures of his 39. Very nice guy and wish I had more time to pick his brain. He's probably forgotten more than I'll ever know
I’m so relieved you’re keeping it a race bike. It’s going to be way cooler and the bike will have the same attitude
It was a tough decision
its great to hang around old knowledgable guys. my uncle was like that. he had a triumph bonville 1972 from new, up till his passing not long ago. his old garage looked a bit like the shop here. he knew everything about bikes and thats really what got me into them. i miss his stories
Tim : if you see this, thank you for your service! Old School Cool'' I heard many years ago that painting your motorcycle green was bad luck, thanks' for sharing your knowledge.
To add to that folklore.... I was told decades ago that the reason the pale or dark green colors were unlucky was that they BLENDED into the background of trees, grass and woods. That made the bikes even harder to see as they cruised down a country road.... and because of the many accidents caused by people not seeing them, GREEN was deemed an unlucky color.
It's not just the destination, but it's the journey and where it takes you that makes for a great story and you are rocking it.
That's so cool that Tim's working on your bike! I can smell his shop through my screen. Wish I was in his backyard to buy parts from and bs with. Great collab and great direction with the bike.
So cool. Old dudes who've forgotten more than you'll ever know about bikes... It's also cool to watch Craig and your's progression in terms of knowledge and knowing the direction you want to go with the bike. Hogspeed, gentlemen!
✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Couldn't agree more!
There’s something magical about watching a restoration journey down memory lane, the mellow conversation with old gold gentlemen. It attracts the likeminded folks who also respect things or people that are old but gold.
From your last 3 episode,I've learned more about Harley's than I had my entire life.Thank you guys,and to the ones teaching us.
I don’t ride, but this is still one of my favorite channels.
Tim reminds me of a lot of the old blokes in the VVMC that are close family friends of my old man and uncles.
Quiet, experienced, and a straight talker; My favourite kinda person.
Really cool avenue you guys have taken... I loved the treasure find ones and drive home.. but taking it up a notch here and rebuilding is just pure TH-cam greatness!
Thanks
What a legend. I love listening to people like Tim.
Tim is the man
Tim is the kind of guy I could hang around just listening to all day. So much knowledge and such a nice guy. Everything you asked he replied immediately and knew every nut and bolt which should be there then every modification possible too. Thats truly special and something we are losing these days.
It makes me wonder why not so many people mess with their bikes anymore. Most people don't go past a can and power commander these days which seems a shame when there are so many options out there.
The "old timers" of vintage bikes are such a great group of people.
I love your vintage bike episodes!
I would’ve slept in my truck too if I got suck in Lancaster. Poor guy! Thank you guys for starting this series! I can wait to see the finished product!
Me too and Lancaster pa. Is the only Lancaster worth visiting
@@BikesandBeards I'll have to see up there one day!
I’m excited to see the finished build!!!
Really like the turn this channel has made, each video leaves you itching for more. Great stuff guys!
Truck in 4x4 and wheel chocks, no runaway trains!
This is the first time I've seen Craig learn something new and be basically at a loss XD
Haha
I'm totally enjoying your junkyard WLA Harley-Davidson project, and can't wait to see the completed motorcycle.
I like the classic Japanese motorcycles manufactured between 1969-1983, I think they were great bikes, especially the 1976 Suzuki GS750, 1975 Honda CB750F Super Sport and Kawasaki's Z1900.
I struggle with faith, but I like that you put poignant Bible Verses into your videos. I like what you do. I like the original patina of your Junkyard WLA but I think you were right to do a full restoration on it. Personally if you don't go back to red I think the motorcycle would look great in Olive green with a golden brown saddle or even with black. I just think the green would give it a great rugged look, without being too military like in style. It will good to see what you decide. Thank You for what you do and for reaching me with your kindness and sense of adventure. Regards Gary.
Probably the coziest video I've seen so far on B&B channel. Thanks a lot.
It's so cool to find someone that still works on the old bikes. You are very lucky.
Yeah Tim is great
So i dont even ride motorcycles or even have that much interest in them yet i cant get enough of your content. Part of it is the fact i've lived in lancaster county for 35 years and can relate to all of your videos as i drive the same roads daily but the bigger part of it is that your just genuinely awesome, interesting, and i love your manner of going about life. thanks for the content... maybe one day ill get to shake your hand and say thanks in person ..
I had a 65 pan head newly rebuilt in 1977. I sold it in 78 . I vibrated for a week. I been kicking myself ever since then. I have owned several since then including a 2011 Tri-Glide.
I love the build, just started watching this. I came over from Matt's Off Road following The Rokon. I live in Cambodia and my wife was the Director/teacher at Calvary Preschool and thinks she was your preschool teacher. We know your sister Cait both from LCS and here in Cambodia.
It’s so fun you bring all these knowledgeable and experienced people on the show. I’m not a mechanically capable dude whatsoever but I could listen to these guys talk about motorcycles all day. Much love keep up the good work ❤️
that was cool to see the WLC, My grandpa rode one in the war for Canada in the 40's as an MP, he told me they would weld right angle to the front vertically to head level and as you rode down the road you would hear piano wire pinging that had been strung across the road. I have a pic of him on one during the war
Sean, I have to say I'm really pumped about the final outcome of this bike. I didn't think I would be interested in this old of a motorcycle but I am now!
I think that its great that you and Craig like to listen to some of us older blokes and the best thing is that you always make sure to say who does your engine work on specialist work,you talked about the guy who helped you to turbo and tune your Harley its just fantastic to mention some of the people who help you out with getting parts,and fabrication it would be great to meet you guys but my days of travelling are over now but Still you never know..
I really like this guy and im so stoked you got him to build your transmission, i bet hes bummed about not getting that motor but hopefully he'll find one, it seems like hes got plenty of performance parts for his race bike though.
What a fountain of knowledge you found in Tim. I could just sit in the corner and soak up like a sponge.
This Is the most badass channel on TH-cam and Sean is an insanely lucky man at work and home and deserves all of it and more.
Love this series so much, can't wait for another episode
Have subscribed to your channel like 2-3 months ago and waiting every episode. Nice stories with old school folks who still doing their stuff and showing their rarities and telling more about old harleys, how they works how to do better and stuff. Keep doin such a good content! And waitin till I see WL in complete! Keep safe, greetings from Estonia!
Awesome, thank you!
You guys have made 2 new friends that are very knowledgeable in motorcycles. Great people to know!💯👍👍🔥🔥🔥
This is the best channel on TH-cam thanks for the great content I really like the way the channel has moved this has kept my interest the whole way and I check daily for new videos keep up the good work fellas
Thank you so much
Yall land up with the best people, to talk too about old bikes, can't wait to see yours come back together.
Great update. I'm looking forward to the next update.
Hey brother, thanks for giving the shout out about my past comment on painting the bike PINK, it made me laugh and smile, I'm sure you know I was just kidding about that color, cheers to your show, I'm completely addicted to watching all your episodes, you guys seem like cool people 🍻
Whatever color you guys choose is going to be super awesome and I can't wait to hear this bad boy run!....grabber blue!
I love how involved greg is with the videos guys. I like him and Sean's narrations
Just a amazing journey so far, love your posts, reviews , and bikes.
I grew up around Bikers like him. My old man and his friends. Just knowledge of bikes. Great video Bikes and Beards!!
He is a wealth of knowledge and a nice bloke, on the colour for your bike….I had a 92 Sportster in a vintage sort of creamy yellow with brown on the tank so dark it looked black until a closer inspection, the bike continuously got good comments on the paint. The yellow/dark brown combination gave the bike a very vintage look like something out of the 40’s or 50’s, I rode into a coastal town too meet up with a lady not knowing a bike show was going on….parking was a problem so I paid the $5.00 entry fee and lined it up with other bikes and went on my way to the local pub for my rendezvous knowing I had secure parking. Several hours later I went to get my bike, the organisers of the show found me and explained they had been looking for me as my “Sportster” which was stock except for a set of slash cut pipes, diamond back seat and a pro charger air cleaner had won the trophy for best evo bike of the show! As you can imagine the big twin evo owners were not happy claiming a “girls bike” had no place winning the best evo category!!!! As it turned out it was a peoples choice voting system and the factory paint was what influenced the result, so in the end I got secured parking for the day and a trophy all for $5.00! When the show was over the organisers came across to the pub where I was staying for the night with my lady friend and we drank and laughed all night about the huge upset the Sportster caused the big twin owners with the trophy made out of a beautiful block of hardwood and a piston out of a G4 Matchless motorcycle that once held an Australian speed record sitting smack in the middle of the table!!!!! Best $5.00 I ever spent! Cheers from Oz 🍻
So many folk with so much knowledge and experience to drop. Really enjoying this process.
Blackout lights on WLA's weren't some "little square lights", they were covers that clipped on over the standard 4.5" round spotlights & had a small, rounded visor over a small rectangular opening to allow you to see just enough at night to see where you were going. There were additional blackout covers for the headlight & the twin taillights as well. The visors were so that none of the lights could be detected by any enemy aircraft passing over.
Great episode guys. Yes that Shop and Tim would be a great place to visit and see history. Thank you Tim for showing and giving us a history lesson 👏.
Glad you enjoyed it
Bringing this guy back in was a good move. He's a genuine hotrodder and turned out to be a righteous dude...I wasn't so sure the first time lol. Thanks again, this is becoming addictive, I can't wait for the next video.
What an amazing journey you guys are letting us all tag along on. I LOVE this!!!!
I’ve got to say I really love that you’ve gone towards classic vintage motorcycles lately it’s good to learn about these old historical bikes and the racing history of it all… when will you do a board track racer ? Lol
Sean this is one of the greatest channels on TH-cam. You certainly knocked the ball outta the park on this one .
Thanks for watching and joining us with this
@@BikesandBeards Absolutely! I have been meaning to get up to see you but I was hit on my 1957 Panhead by a F350 eighteen months ago and literally had to learn how to walk again. I am a chemical engineer but I love restoring old bikes and I am working on a Porsche 916 GT factroy race car that I found in a muddy field in Western Pa three years ago. I have not even gotten it off the trailer because of the accident. I also have an XS650 bobber that is 3/4 done and an ATLTF build off "mud" mower. I am out in Phoenixville but I would love to come out some time and visit.
Super cool guys, I'm lovin the direction you've taken the channel in.
I’m so glad that your getting into old Harleys. There is so much cool history behind them.
So happy to be a part of this build!
Awesome!! Stoked you guys get to have more fun with it making it into a old-school race bike!! Opposed to having to keep it all original.. excited to see how it goes!!!
now we can throw a GSXR motor in it
The bike is well past being original!
@@BikesandBeards Sean you are literally my favorite person in the whole world but please don't do that 😂
So cool you brought him on board to help you out. Very interesting guy, and knowledgeable.
Great show, looking at all that history
Helicopter gunner, man that is bad ass! I was close when I saw his remove before flight keychain last video. Also my wife grandparents live in Lancaster, and her grandfather worked for Harley Corp back in the day I am sure he will notice you riding that around town when you get her on the road. Going to be a sweet ride.
thats cool
Paint it blue but inspired by the Crocker multi tone paint job. Would be one of a kind awesomeness!
Great show Craig and Shawn!
Been loading, and unloading equipment, daily, fot 32 yrs. Never had a truck roll on me like that. But.... Always fun to see newbies mess up, and no one gets hurt, and no damage. Wish I had video of all the other screw ups I have done!😆
I really enjoy the dynamic between you and Craig it seriously makes all these videos awesome
I'm so glad to have found your channel from mischief Maker and that you are going to be working on Ed bike from Matt's off road recovery
This is gold, if there’s an award for you tube content this should be nominated😎👍
P.S. loving Craig voice over bits, you two make a great team (and very one else behind the cameras).
there is and we never are haha
Don’t know if anybody mentioned it,still watching the video,most people who use Glyptal in race engines use it to aid in oil drain back. He is also right about using it on old castings,most early aluminum castings are very porous and the Glyptal does a great job of sealing cases and castings up. Just be sure to keep machined surfaces taped off or plugged when applying it. I have a set of the WLA cases also that new old stock from gov’t inventory. They were still available from places like J&P cycles the last time I got one of their antique catalogs but that’s been a while. Check out eBay if you’re looking for nos WW2 45parts,Matt Walksler usually has some available on there,pretty sure that’s where I got my gaskets and Linkert parts. Another good source is from another eBay seller, 45jeffjeff which has a lot of inventory in Canada of leftover war effort parts but there are plenty of sellers who have those parts available. Good luck with the build.
Really looking forward to this build.
Really big hearted old man..
Respect..
WOW, what a show!!! Hope you will do more like this...
Endless bike knowledge....this series is getting sweet....thx
Great scripture, great video! It's gonna look great when y'all get it finished.
I am loving this WLA project!
Awesome episode. Love this journey!
Awesome video, learned a lot about older bikes.
Mad respect so much knowledge and nice that he was willing to help you out
As usual, you have made this series one great, fun ride. Keep on motoring.
More to come!
Exceptional content! That was splendid! Thank you for you work!
Man I would be like a kid in a candy shop . WOW so many cool things to look at .. love it
This wla series is great, lovin' it. thanks!
Can't wait for the WLA to get done and can't wait for Ed's bike awesome content guys.
Bikes and Beards! A Jamaican favourite youtube channel (and resuce rebuild:) ). Bless up guys, awesome content!
Loving this series and the verses man, keep up the good work! Blessings to the SRK Cycle crew. 👍🏻😇
Interesting; I like it when you guys visit the specialists. It’s great having an insight to the real America, from the uk
Your definitely going to race this wla In a vintage class! AND I CANT WAIT!!!
glad you're keeping the fenders
This is more fun to watch than the old retail sales thing. Better. Plus Craig is cool.
Great job Craig and the other guy.
Another great show thanks guys, nice to see the old bikes and the F100 looked great. And Craig, red is only faster if you have a white stripe going down it. The Mustang must have shown you that lol.
Looks like you've got the dream team there on this build👌
The right approach for the bike, it’s history, and what you have to work with
I don’t know what the algorithm is doing for these WLA videos, but they are awesome, I like them better than the older videos
