I can tell ya that BILLY is a solid human being he took the time out of his busy day and replied to my comment he had some real advice for me and I’ll never forget it thanks 🙏 BILLY 💪🔥🐐you’re absolutely the GOAT 🐐💪🔥
Billy Lane & Ryan Kruesi have been my two favorite channels for the last few years…words cannot express how awesome it was seeing you two guys together! Best Episode ever!
Billy Lane, Russell Mitchell and Indian Larry are my absolute favorite builders. Almost inspired me into thinking I could build a chopper from scratch in my garage with no experience.
You can. It will be a huge learning experience and will take time.. but with the internet and TH-cam you can ABSOLUTELY do it . NOBODY built a chopper before they built their first chopper .. everybody gotta start somewhere.
That’s how it would be for many of us if we met you guys, I’m coming to the US from Australia next year I would love to pop in and say hi……definitely wanna come while an event is on
Billy is a legend in the game no questions asked. Such a humble man for creating such a name for himself and his companies. Hard to find in today's younger crowd.
Ryan, this is the first time I seen your channel and I loved it, I'm a Billy Lane fan myself,had the privilege to get to visit his shop back when the build off shows was going on. My wife and myself got to visit with him in Columbus Ohio at the Easy riders show back then also, nicest guy you ever wanted to meet, and to take time to set at the table and talk to us, it just made our 9 year old grandsons visit to the bike show a big deal for him. Years before that Indian Larry's bike got stolen in Columbus and he had his key laying there where his bike should have been, as big as bummer as that weekend had to be for him he set and talked to us about a hour. So I don't think alot of people has the right out look towards the motorcycle community. Best people in the world. Could set and listen to Billy talk about those old motors all day but I have bent your ear long enough, so because of this video I'm now a new subscriber to your channel. Thanks for the video I will be looking forward to seeing more from you. Thanks again and stay safe.
Wow. This is an amazing video. I have been binge watching Biker Build Off Indian Larry was my favorite, Billy was my second favorite. I just recently have been binge watching Billy’s channel and this video popped up. I’m glad I clicked on it. Billy is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to motorcycles. This made my day 👍
Best show I have ever watched you guys blockhead and the legendary Billy Lane I could spend days at his shop watching listening and learning from him Well done Tony from Australia
Billy lane was the dude that got me hooked on motorcycles when i was just a little dude watching his show on discovery channel glad to see u guys collab
This merging of worlds is awesome. Lots of cross promotion and hopefully serves all of you well. Thank all of you for inspiring ppl to do bikes. I’m in Melbourne australia right now and we cannot get apprentices to join the trade but I feel like you guys will definitely drive more into the industry….I always knew I’d ride forever but one of the moments that kicked off my love for the trade was seeing Billy’s hubless chopper back in 2006 I think it was.
Man Billy & Jessi where rock stars in my eyes back in the day. My dad had a custom bike shop from 2000-2008. Every minute I wasn’t in school I was in the shop turning wrenches with my dad. Some of the best times of my life. Love what your doing man.
This was one of the best episodes ever for sure. Billy inspired me greatly to continue fabricating by hand when everyone else was buying all the machines I couldn’t. Awesome to know Ryan is a big fan.
Big G'day all at Team Kruesi & Blockhead family also Billy Lane from Down Under 🇦🇺 Awesome content & priceless talks about stuff. Love ya advice your giving the 50
Billy Lane following Ryan Kruesi on TH-cam WOW! What an outstanding video! You guys made motorcycle history! Billy is such a gentleman. Met him at Javits center in NYC probably 20 years ago. He continues to inspire the masses!
I'm 65. Been doing the Harley thing for 20 years. This is your best video yet. That was a very special moment with the risers. Also, how can you not just admire and learn from Billy's humility and down to earth attitude?
Your reaction to Billy giving you Indian Larry risers is why I'm a fan of yours! You are not only a funny, smart ass, smart mechanic but you are so genuine and all real talk! Awesome, bro...
Amazing video I grew up watching Billy and all the guys on Discovery. The Indian Larry risers is amazing, I would’ve teared up too. A room full of legends RIP Indian Larry 🙏
Billy Lane. Let’s respect been through it been through a lot came out the other side. Came out with class. I try to do that with myself. I’ve been through it. God bless and God bless America.
I have a choppers inc shirt got it probably 20 years ago “trust no one” on one sleeve, “money is fake” on the other. Great show! Bring back the Chopfather!!
Cool video. Billy pulled into your yard in Sturgis on his Devil in a red dress bike , no paint yet. I think it was 1999. He was looking at the Knuckle Head Power motors . I’ll never forget that.
Crazy I’ve been in yalls neck of the woods these last two years and got to meet yall and to see yall in my neck of the woods and ride the roads I’ve road down is pretty freaking cool!
WEPA!🔥🔥🔥 I had the same experience two years ago when, mid bike week i chose to skip a day of king of the baggers to go meet my idols at Blockhead Garage! My timing was impeccable and they invited me back to an amazing ride to Ace cafe later that evening. I’m forever grateful to justin for that invite. It was the highlight of 2023 Daytona bike week.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
DUDE.. I love Your content Ryan, and I've been a Huge fan of Billy's forever and a day. See ing You two together, and how candid Billy was with You was beyond Rad! Thanks for sharing Your visit with us man.
The ones that got Me into Bikes was My Cousins they raced Dirt . Then I found Easy Rider 1969 von dutch John Harman who cleaned Up Choppers in the 60s some 70s . Tim Bell . Hells Angels choppers . Gyspy Jokers Bikes . Im talking Back in 60s and 70s . When the Fat rear tire came in . The ones I knew . And Me was grabing flat tred VW tires. The widest rear Tire we went .
This was the one that made me subscribe. I hope you do some collabs more often. Nice to see one builder admire another builder. Billy’s content is frikn awesome. Both of you guys are cool dudes
Man do I remember watching all the biker build offs and out of everyone that was on the show Billy is definitely the one I would love to meet the most What an experience that must of been ! The jealousy is real
Cruisin thru my hometown 🤘..grew up rippin dirtbikes around cocoa beach just north of choppers inc.got an ironhead sportster at 16. Billy and indian larry gave me the spark to start customizing my harley. This was badass video
Great video, but I mainly watched to find out why Billy was no longer in Tennessee. No, just wish the best for you all. You all do things to keep us average joes passionate about riding. Love ya!
The guys like Billy, Larry, Jesse, etc are legends. They really did shape the next generations of riders. I was in 4th/5th grade when these guys were all on TV and I knew then that was the life I wanted to live. I’d steal my dad’s PVC and chop it up and make motorcycle “frames” in my room 🤣 20+ years later I’m still balls deep in to Harley’s and making shit cool. I’m no builder, no “master” mechanic, but I’ve built a solid enough foundation to hopefully leave something behind for the kids behind me the same way 👊🏻✊🏻
I remember very little of that show. I can say that i was watching orange county choppers and west coast with jeese james when i was ten. Hated the orange county builds but was enthralled with everything motorcycle. Now i gotta go back and look up these episodes with billy. You all have been a huge inspiration for me. Its been very depressing having my ST stolen after trading my road king, but i have hope for the future. Blockehead inspired me to go back to arizona and do mmi next year with my G.I. bill. Now at 32 yo i think i finally know now what i want to do with my life. Blockhead lead me to follow kruesi to which i have now bought his gloves and got entered into the give away. 🤞here is hoping i get that bike and can get back on 2 wheels again. Also chris is the fukin man. He responded to a question of mine on his sickwideglide page. I didnt get the answer i was looking for but i may have asked it weird. I feel like im rubbing elbows with important people and in the bike world you all very much are.
I can tell ya that BILLY is a solid human being he took the time out of his busy day and replied to my comment he had some real advice for me and I’ll never forget it thanks 🙏 BILLY 💪🔥🐐you’re absolutely the GOAT 🐐💪🔥
Gerald Morelock would disagree.
Billy Lane & Ryan Kruesi have been my two favorite channels for the last few years…words cannot express how awesome it was seeing you two guys together! Best Episode ever!
100%
Thank you 🙏 there’s more to come
Ditto. Looking forward to it.
I have met Billy a couple of times. He tells it like it is, and holds back nothing. Honesty and openess are big hallmarks of good people.
Yeah it's so much better to see than lame blockhead
Love the little voice crack when Ryan got given the risers ❤
It was real
Def my fav part of the day, lol
Such a nice gesture from billy. The sentimental worth of anything with that question mark on it, is just wow
Billy Lane! This was awesome to just listen to him talk and tell stories!
Ask him to tell you the story about how he got behind the wheel drunk and killed an innocent man.
Billy Lane, Russell Mitchell and Indian Larry are my absolute favorite builders. Almost inspired me into thinking I could build a chopper from scratch in my garage with no experience.
You can. It will be a huge learning experience and will take time.. but with the internet and TH-cam you can ABSOLUTELY do it . NOBODY built a chopper before they built their first chopper .. everybody gotta start somewhere.
I’ll Add Paul cox and Jon the painter to the list
Billy Lane and Kruesi… WOW!
That’s how it would be for many of us if we met you guys, I’m coming to the US from Australia next year I would love to pop in and say hi……definitely wanna come while an event is on
Billy is a legend in the game no questions asked. Such a humble man for creating such a name for himself and his companies.
Hard to find in today's younger crowd.
Billy and Indian Larry are why I got into motorcycles. It's was super rad to see this wealth of experience in one room talking Harleys.
It was a great experience
Ryan, this is the first time I seen your channel and I loved it, I'm a Billy Lane fan myself,had the privilege to get to visit his shop back when the build off shows was going on.

Thanks for the video I will be looking forward to seeing more from you. Thanks again and stay safe.
Thank you and welcome to the channel.
