Man, this has gotta be a tough one to let go of... But it's gonna make this give-away that much more special. If the VA hadn't just left me up a creek without a paddle, I'd happily throw $10k at this raffle to celebrate the 10yrs of Forgotten Angels and the many years of memories that you've created and shared with the community with this bike! Thanks for sharing for all these years, brother! 💜
That's so cool to see the Rocket 3 back on the channel. whoever wins it needs to give it back to you and tell you you have to keep it. thats your bike.
How would that make any sense. Josh has more bikes than he can ever keep ridden. Rocket 3 needs to go to someone to enjoy and keep it ridden everyday not setting all the time
@@DanBeanner-zo3ms Sorry Dan, but I must disagree here. That piece of machinery has Josh's heart and soul in it. It could never mean to anyone else what it means to Josh. You can see it on his face and hear it in his voice when he talks about his Rocket III. I can relate as I've had mine now for over 10 years and just can't force myself to part with it.
I was aged out of foster care but I was very fortunate that my grandparents took me in. I have alot of respect and admiration for what you folks do! God Bless You All!!!
The thing I appreciate the most about your content is how you can shift between bullshitting and being completely genuine and yet it comes across clearly which is which.
I'm one of the original subscribers. Every time you crack the throttle open on the Rocket III the angels sing Sunshine and Lollipops. The Rocket III is the only motorcycle that can outrun a hurricane in Florida because if it couldn't shade tree would be married.
@@kennethandes9170 I don't know if I'm allowed to say it but you know you should never use your real name in social media. It's pretty common knowledge tbh.
I remember when my brother was rebuilding his Ducati Darma engine, I put an extra bolt on the mat he had laid out, all the parts on. He spent three days trying to find where this last bolt went. I had to tell on day four, to put him out of his misery, and so I could stop laughing so hard at him. Brothers!
You inspire me to be a better person. I have struggled with addiction forever but you show me there is a better life out there than what I was living. You inspire me to do what I know I should do by your selfless acts. Thanks bro.
Thank you for all you do, really. You put yourself out there in a way that most people can’t or won’t do and at great risk to yourself. I really appreciate what you do and the awesome content you deliver on a regular basis and the work you all do for forgotten angels is amazing. You deserve a lot kudos brother. Cheers to you.
You know one of the reasons I like/respect you? You take responsibility. I don't have a forgotten order or anything. I just appreciate a guy who handles his business.
I respect your decision, your a good hearted soul. And I'll get hate for this, but I'd have to say, don't get rid of that bike. I can't give you a hundred reasons. But. You're not a selfish person ... Don't do it. Anyways. Much respect fella.
Every prior raffle I was bummed that I had zero cash to buy tickets. This time around I actually have funds available and wow the rocket three. I was so excited to see you on it again in the video and then the bomb was dropped, it's up for raffle. I know what it is like to give up something personally meaningful for something you know will help others. On one hand it is a sad goodbye yet on the other it feels good knowing it will really help someone. I am glad to help the cause and glad for the chance at Ozy.
You've worked so hard to get that bike and make it what it is, I don't think its selfish to keep it. My opinion is to keep it, keep it fool. You have already done sooo much for forgotten angles, so much man. I totally respect your decision and can see where you are coming from man
Josh, NOOOOO! I get your emotional attachment to both Forgotten Angels and your beloved Rocket III, and although it's not my place to tell you what to do with that beautiful Triumph, I can't believe your decision to part with it, particularly after your stating that you would never EVER sell it. I would hate to see it go to someone who could never love it and appreciate as you do. I understand your passion for the Rocket III as a 2 time Rocket III owner myself. God bless you for your committment to such a noble cause.
wow... an Iconic bike...definitely a "lamborgini" with what this bike has gone through! .. (ie... Josh)... can't believe he's sacraficing this bike to celebrate his commitment commitment to Forgotten Angels.. definitely a giant representive gift too show his devotion to this cause... Brap Brap..!
Never feel bad that you are not giving enough. You already give up, on a regular basis, the only thing that is actually yours to give, and the one thing you can never ever get back. You give your time. That is a finite resource, brother, and you give a lot of it.
I feel like i have not seen this bike very much in the last 5 years or so. Heard about it more than ive seen it in videos! Ill definitely be supporting this raffle. Youre a good man doing good things
I wasnt a day one subscriber but I started about 10ish years ago. The rocket 3 was your daily rider then and it was well before any of your crew was featured, like Cheyleesi. Seems like you lived a different life then, with your former relationships and friends featured and you still bar tended! Crazy you are letting this one go, but i'm not surprised given how you've sacrificed for FA. Cheers!
Good lord the Rocket 3... dude this is something I would never have thought to see. I would love to win it so I can keep it down there for you to "watch over it" and I only use it when I am there. Good luck to all who put in for this, and truly yall are amazing people that do so much good. keep up the fun vids.
Ey Josh... thank you for beeing you. I.. just been sitting here this last year... and sometimes life takes everything u got... i feel inspired to stand again ...your a good dude
I was legit just thinking about this bike last week and your journey with it when talking to some friends. Wild but still an amazing thing to do for an organization that you have built such a symbiotic relationship with. Hope to finally come down in March.
Shadetree I built Poison Ivy Telecaster for Forgotten Angels to Raffle and 1996 5oth Anniv. Telecaster with Gibson Scale Length Flamed Maple Neck, Ebony Fretboard, SS6105 frets, and 3x3 headstock that I spent a month painting Custom Pickguard, to date it is one of the Best Instruments I ever created. Maybe we will finally meet now I have beaten Pancreatic Cancer and can possibly Thank many of Shadetree family that kept me in their Prayers as I fought and Beat Cancer
Hey Josh, that must hurt to give up the Rocket. You are a good man. I've started watching your channel because of the Rocket III. I loved it so much that I bought a 2022 Rocket 3 R, but yours is so cool that I bought a 2005 Rocket that chopped up and made a bobber out of. Cheers from Connecticut.
just wanted to say the stickers i got from you are awesome,i was pleasantly surprised to to the fat pokemons in there as wel,my beautiful grand daughter loved those and the Harley Gayvidson Sticker is proudly sitting on my rear guard on my Triumph America. thanks again Josh.really appreciate you guys and your contend.peace
I mentioned the Rocket 3 in the comments from the last video and now it magically appeared. The mighty wizard has listened to the smallest cult pawn. She still rips 🙌🤘😎
BROTHER.......I commented way too soon. My 1st video i watched was about the Rocket 3 and then a few videos later is when the 2nd gear broke. I hope whoever wins the Rocket 3 cherishes it as much as you did. Scott's legacy lives in that bike forever🤘
Hey bud, if you haven't already, please make sure the coils have a good clean ground the whole way to the engine. Check the resistance between where the coils are mounted and to the engine stator plate. If there's excessive resistance run an extra ground wire from the coil mounting location tobthe engine. Hope this helps. 🙂
Bad people doing good things, bullshit Josh. I’ve been watching you since 2012 and I’ve seen you grow as a person as well as a personality. I believe you’ve always had a good heart, but like most riders you put on the brave motorcycle front for the world to see. If you were a true badarse you would never have gotten involved with Forgotten Angels. Also Bert wouldn’t have let you have bikes on loan for a long period of time ( eg Road King Kong ). Keep up the good work brother from another egg.
Swung for the fences on this one, didn’t ya Sir? A bit of education on the miracle that is precision machining and valve adjustment, pouring your heart out about a bike that means so much to you (relatable to EVERYONE here I think) and paying homage to the great organization that is Forgotten Angels. I don’t think you’re gonna have a problem raising funds with that masterpiece. I need to get you down to Coppertail, Sir. Been too long since I’ve seen ya.
After a smoke you can lose things easily, they might be in your hand all along. 😂😂 I once spent half an hour looking for my phone that was in my shirt pocket. Easily done when you have several layers on against the cold.😂😂
You are amazing!! I would like to know as much as you. I have been riding since 1970. I do my own service work to a point. Oil and filter changes, tires, exhaust, stuff like that. Your the man.
HAIL TO THE KING BABY. That mechanical beast had its reappearance long overdue. For every thrust of the throttle, the angel combustion shines a smile upon us, representing the blessings of the mechanical gods themselves! It's really sad to see it go, but I do understand the need you feel to give it away. What was a staple is now an emotional burden. And no, wanting to keep it doesn't really make you materialistic
I've never been a Triumph fan... but I've always admired that one. I am damn glad to see you still have the old rocket, even if I am jealous of it........ and right as I'm typing that I got to the part about it being raffled off..... D00d... thats..... damn....
Amazon has diesel heaters that will work well enough for your garage on those cold days, we use them in cargo trailer for thawing snow machines out and they work well and cheap to buy and operate
The cb750k engines have soft valve seats and valves from the factory. They were made when leaded fuel was the standard, and the lead provided lubrication. The valves will wear when running unleaded fuel, and a lead substitute should be used.
No. Don't quit, go back to school, you can look at a CB750 repair manual online. How easy is it to set the Timing? Quick Check they are all firing in the correct pattern.👍 30:50 edit, good for you, complete new wiring loom! 👏👏👏👏👏
Well, I’m certainly pleased to c the Rocket III again, but I’m not pleased to hear ur parting ways w/it. Forgotten Angels, tremendously wonderful cause but, the Rocket III? Wow!! Shade, Wow! Hey Lali and Doodle McNoodle, I keep pestering u 2 to get Busa’s or ZX-14’s b/c I believe in my heart u’ll love ‘em. But, this is an even better opportunity. The only trepidation I have is both of ur inseams (fwd controls).
The Rocket 3 (and Barf Party) were what you were riding the most when I started watching this channel. Sad to see it go (unless I win it) but at least it's going to a great cause.
I will be buying some raffle tickets to support the Forgotten Angels and if I win that bike, JOSH / shadetree. Surgen will be its caretaker and I’ll have a bike to ride whenever I’m in Florida for you to step up and give that bike away brother I liked you before but just a lil bit more. Know Keep doing. what your doing So i stay tune
As a northerner yes 40 is warm I love 40 degrees I can do 40 degrees all day. What I can't do 90 and above. Can't do it don't want to do it amazed that you do it most of the year. The point it's about what you're used to.
Dr. Shade-Tree, yes, it's me! Again! You remember, the guy who could not believe you chose the 48 as the NUMBER ONE XL YOU didn't care for! (I'm sorry, but didn't you give away a 48 a while ago??) Have you ever thought about doing stand-up comedy?? I'm serious! You are one, bright and funny dude!! Keep doing "good things" you "bad boy"!! As you have long believed and known to be true, it really is better to give than to receive!! Love ya!

I run the NOCO Lithium NLP14, Group 14, 500A Lithium LiFePO4 Motorcycle Battery. It is smaller than a group 9 battery. And it doesn't die like that other brand.

Hope to see you sometime when my bike is finished and I have some time to come and visit and look at some houses and go to some job interviews...-John
40 degrees???? Amazing!! In Detroit, as long as there is no snow or ice, I ride down to 20 degrees or so. Just gotta dress for it. I'm jealous of your weather....
going to be grabbing a few tickets for this one. its been awhile so its hard to say, but i think i started watching your channel about the time you either got the rocket 3, or had done some upgrade to it and where testing the 0-60 on it way back. not going to lie, i want it, but that is your bike man. if i win it, it will be well taken care of, and if you ever want it back again its yours. you and that bike in particular inspired me to get my temps and my 1st motorcycle. that didn't end well but i regret nothing lol nor am i finished making bad decisions i should probably regret and wont. sorry i haven't commented much or at all really over the years. but i do want to say, thank you for the inspiration. riding motorcycles was something i wanted to do since literally before i can remember apparently ( literally) but people kept talking me out of it over the years.. i may not have ever started riding if not for shadetree and his rocket 3.
Grab a ticket to win Shadetree's personal Rocket 3 to celebrate 10 years of Forgotten Angels

I'm building a honda 750 chopper bit by bit. I KNOW I Will be able to follow your lead and be Rollin again by summer!
Wow, your first bike on TH-cam at least that I remember. Been watching since the first
Giving an old machine TLC and giving away a treasured possession? Buddy you'll make santas nice list. Your a good man Charlie Brown.
Finally got my Shadetree Army T-shirt in the mail! Worth the wait!
I appreciate ya brother!
Damn dude! Letting go of the Rocket 3. Wow. If I win it, it'll live up here in Portland so you can come visit it anytime you want!
I can't imagine what that cold/snow is doing to y'all down there . try to stay warm and keep the faith that it will warm up soon .
They wear sweaters during 60⁰ winters. They are fine. Just another sweater season
Your awesome man!! I am impressed. I get you. Tough thing to do. You will be blessed.
So sorry about Scotty . Hawai’i Bike Kahuna loves you and you, David Cindy needs to do a Hawaii trip brah!
Today as I watch this video I see that the temperature in Tampa is 70 degrees..I would go with the bad rectifier..Go with a more modern rectifier....Gosh I miss Tampa...Love ya Brother..I have been with you ever since the crazy girlfriends that you lived with...I was wondering if the rogue's gallery of girlfriends were still there in video form...lol... Hope to see you sometime when my bike is finished and I have some time to come and visit and look at some houses and go to some job interviews...-John
"25 seconds of uninterrupted existential staring" cracked me the fuck up.
I've owned my Yamaha roadstar 1700 for 20 years 😂. Needs a new highway light casing but other than that it runs perfectly.
40 degrees???? Amazing!! In Detroit, as long as there is no snow or ice, I ride down to 20 degrees or so. Just gotta dress for it. I'm jealous of your weather....
Freezing is honestly kind of warm
Your friend would be proud of you.
40 degrees & raining can be rough. gotta work on motorcycles sometime. fingees do get cold😅. snow in north Florida😊.
going to be grabbing a few tickets for this one. its been awhile so its hard to say, but i think i started watching your channel about the time you either got the rocket 3, or had done some upgrade to it and where testing the 0-60 on it way back. not going to lie, i want it, but that is your bike man. if i win it, it will be well taken care of, and if you ever want it back again its yours. you and that bike in particular inspired me to get my temps and my 1st motorcycle. that didn't end well but i regret nothing lol nor am i finished making bad decisions i should probably regret and wont. sorry i haven't commented much or at all really over the years. but i do want to say, thank you for the inspiration. riding motorcycles was something i wanted to do since literally before i can remember apparently ( literally) but people kept talking me out of it over the years.. i may not have ever started riding if not for shadetree and his rocket 3.
SHADETREEEEEEEE ARMYYYYYY
Sorry I missed the premiere. Love y’all!
Love ya brother!
