At about 4:30 he says its the bike Larry died on. Was it rebuilt after or did it have just very minor superficial imperfections? It looks like a piece of jewelry to my eye. I would have thought ot would be scarred up some. Doesn't seem to be though.
I think so too. The man was an amazing cat. My old boss Roy (Royboy) Cooper owned a Larry build I think from the late 80s. Twisting the down tube was a trademark of Larry's and Roy pointed that fact out to me. We all are artists who ride; Roy Larry myself and so many others. Larry could ride his art. His bikes were beautifully crafted no nonsense machines. The balance and symmetry lent to his trick riding as well as aesthetic. Gorgeous and bad to the bone runners. There will never be another Leonardo there wi never be another Larry. Long Live the King.........Larry's builds will forever be a testament and standard set
Obviously haven't seen what next gen holds when it comes to custom bikes. Have a stroll on the gram and I garuntee you'll all change your mind. Don't be so narrow minded✊
Just FYI, these bikes found a GREAT home at the Legends Motorcyles Museum in Springville, UT. This museum is a must see for all vintage motorcycle lovers. legendsmotorcycles.com/
Glad they are going where people can see them and be inspired by the work that went into building them. When my father took me to my first car show at the Oakland California Rod and Kustom show in 1981 I was hooked. My first car was a custom I built.
As a 31 year old man who grew up watching these bike's being built and looked up to these guy's as a young mechanic, I'm getting choked up seeing how much $ they went for. Rest in Power Indian Larry 🔥
Right I’m 33 and watched all the discovery biker build offs and Larry was a legend. I would’ve thought these bikes would’ve sold for $100,000 at least.
Serious question: I don't know much about bikes at all. Why is Indian Larry so highly regarded? No offense at all, but those bikes look pretty basic to me....
It’s easy to see why Indian Larry never lost a biker build off competition.Beautiful ol’school choppers. I wonder what he would of thought of these big wheeled clowned out circus colored baggers.
I like my bagger it is a good bike, I also like 100 inch 1999 FXDWG, and I love my 1979 FXEFB Shovel Head custom. Each has and serves a purpose but I see no need for a big wheel, it's just another fad like the big rear tire custom choppers that you can't give away today.
Like most on indian larry. He liked the bikes just like what he and his team built. I have a bagger and a softail slim s. Had lots sinse 1983. Mostly harleys shovels. Twincams etc. I dont think he would like the Giants wheels etc. I dont but to the people who do i respect there decision. R. I. P. Larry. Best wishes for bambi. Scotth
@@scottherring8987 I don't like them Bagger's nor the Big wheel shiet, nor would Indian, guaranteed, the radio bullshit on bike's either, that to me is not a true Biker nor Bike! To each is own!
Great buy I grew up 2 blocks from Indian Larry's shop and used to watch him ride all the time RIP LARRY NEW owner great man to keep the bikes together Thank u
i met larry at easyriders cols oh he put his arm around me and my wife started taking pictures the whole time larry is saying can you believe all these people came to see me after all the things i done in my past i said larry you deserve this you turned your life around i said you build the bikes that we grew up on like the rat fink bike he said thanks signed my shirt shook hands and isaid keep building brother thank you needless to say our picture was enlarged and the shirt and pictures are now framed and hanging on my wall i also got one of the 1st belt buckles i will never ever forget my time with larry love you brother i bet the lord put you to work right away building him a bike cant wait to see it
@@BTadventures7 Every once in awhile YT recommends videos I've already watched. Then once in awhile YT gets it right and recommends a video like this. Thanks for the vid.
Kudos to the couple who purchased and kept them together. Even more kudos to them for putting them on display at the mentioned museum for all to see. If you have ever ridden motorcycles and might be from that era, you know these bikes are priceless. RIP Indian Larry as your creative mind will live long at the museum because of this. ? FTW
I met him at a swap meet in Ct., before his fame from tv and the build offs. He had just published an article in one of the motorcycle mags called "the Chopper as a Chalice" the article inspired me as I was having a creative block with a custom bike I was building at the time. I spoke with him for over an hour, he was very gracious and humble. He had a shop at the time called Psyco Cycles in NYC, I still have the tee shirt he gave me that day...
Larry built some beautiful bikes and I wish I had the chain bike. It's funny and sad at the same time how Larry, Jesse, Billy and tons of other talented guys and gals built functioning bikes to ride across america and they weren't making tons of money, yet OCC made millions building kickstand art that only rode for a mile at a time or wasn't very functional to ride at all. I guess that's why the real builders bikes are still worth money and you can't give away the OCC bikes these days.
Met Indian Larry once at a bike week. My friend Jeff and I spent hours watching and listening to him while our friends drank at the bars. Definitely some of the best hours of my life. So glad to see both motorcycles go to one owner.
Yes me also , but it wouldn't be called a stunt if real danger was not in the equation. He was brave and he also provided for his loved ones until the very end R.I.P.
the money is going to help his family out, which i think larry would have cared about much more than a pile of metal and wire, no matter how beautiful the bikes may have been
Indian Larrys bikes are priceless, a masterpiece of the worlds best bike builder and never forgotten, still watch your builds on youtube and they will never get old
Serious question: I don't know much about bikes at all. Why is Indian Larry so highly regarded? No offense at all, but those bikes look pretty basic to me....
You don't understand the custom motorcycle community, both bikes went to the same person to enjoy. They were in a museum for years and who in the hell do you think you are to question Larrys wife, love and soulmate. Paul Cox built his own special tribute bike to Larry and you do not know how tight the Gasoline Alley family was and is. It's been fifteen years and Larry was a very special, giving, caring person. So just stop with the stupid rhetoric.
i live in upstate NY. i watched Indian Larry ride to work every morning. i worked on the Williamsburg bridge on the brooklyn side 1999-2002 he rode from Manhattan to Brooklyn to his shop on Kent ave. i use to go and see him do his build bikes at the shop he was a really down to earth guy . Paul cox was there also doing his Leather.
Indian Larry would have been happy. Seems that money went to people he cared about and The dude that brought them knows what he has and will take very good care of them. It might seems like he paid a lot for them too but given inflation, he paid about what he would have if he had brought them back in the late 90s/earlys 2000s when they were built, maybe more because he wasn't selling his main ride unless you offered something insane. Choppers were big then so you had to get on a waiting list if you wanted a bike from any of the big bike builders. Some people paid 100,000 in the early 2000s for OCC bikes that wouldnt be worth shit today and ride like crap. Larry's was a ture master craftsman who took pride in his work and not the money, that was the reward for quality, that's getting rarer and rarer today!..... 🤘???????????🤘
Memories are priceless. And these bikes weren’t made just by anybody. But by Indian Larry. A bad ass legendary bike builder. These bikes are priceless as Larry would say. They are an extension of himself. Sad to see them sold off. I know I wouldn’t do that no matter how much money I got for them.
MADNESS.... I know plenty of old farmers who had spine damage driving hard seated tractors, so a life time on these things is crazy... I'd rather have a pair of springs than spinal damage !!
It’s a shame that rich boomers price bikes like Indian Larry’s out of the market. Those bikes deserve to be ridden and ridden hard Now they’ll live out the rest of their days sitting in a collection never to be ridden again
Roman and Brandon he passed doing what he loved riding and entertaining people unlike you two living to type shit on a computer to get your sad little jollies
I got to meet him at Columbus Ohio at an easy rider show...it was him and billy lane and Paul yaffee...he was in sweat pants with a wife beater and house slippers...Very Humble and polite. We chatted several minutes and never acted like an arrogant ass or like I was bother...I believe he was a genuine person that was riding that ride for all that he could
I tried to buy the 2nd bike but I only had 10 grand and got outbid I was really sad that I didn't win..I really thought I had it man im still sad about it..Larry was like a mentor to me and really needed that back. Needless to say after this auction I started using again and now a full blown heroine addict again
@@Hannya-d2h thanks my friend I appreciate the compliment! I'm still using everyday and I also got my new girlfriend to start shooting up heroine with me. To be honest I actually enjoy my addiction a lot of people don't. Also a lot of people are made about my new girlfriend also just because she is underage and I'm 23 yrs older then her. But I love her
It is very difficult to understand, in what situation, after Larry passed away, is Bamby, I am usually someone to keep memories, but today I would say, that it would not be fair, to judge that it is wrong for them to be auctioned. WE ALL CARRIED A CROSS ON OUR SHOULDERS; AND NOBODY IMAGINE HOW HARD IT IS TO FOLLOW ::::RIP Larry.
@@gaideas1416 Yes. They have also ruined it for the common man to get into a 60's muscle car. We are having to get the more obscure cars and trucks. That's fine. I have my '53 F100 and my '62 F100. See my profile picture of my '62.....and my dog. It ain't perfect and shiney but, I like it. I'm making it my daily driver.
I actually would have thought these would have sold for much more. There are motorcycles that have sold for more. Most West Coast Choppers have sold for the 150k range, and Jesse James is still alive. Given the history of both and Indian Larry, I was expecting anywhere in the 300,000 to 450,000 range for each. I would have said 250,000 would be the min.
You NEVER see an OCC bike go for this price. OCC bikes were not for riding, they were for showing. You can buy them all day long for way under 20 grand.
In what became is signature performance, while standing on the back of his moving motorcycle, Indian Larry fell, caving the back of his head in. He was killed instantly.
The day indian larry passed away choppers died along with him larry is forever a two wheeleed chopper legend i think if he was still aluve he would be racing vintage bikes with billy lane's sons of speed viva la grease monkey rifa siempre
Well I didn't personally know indian larry. But we had a lot of somewhere philosophies. And I can tell you in my opinion, That he would think at some point. Past around 30, -40 grand. Respect is one thing. And a sucker is born. Every minute.
I guess his ole lady was more interested in the $$$$$,,,, I am a bit pissed over it, but maybe that Is what Larry would have wanted,,,,RIP GREAT ONE,,,, 😎✌✝💕💕💕
*KUDOS TO THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL/BIKER BUILD OFF.. FOR INTRODUCING THE WORLD TO INDIAN LARRY. REWATCHED EPISODES WITH INDIAN LARRY COUNTLESS TIMES. FAST FOWARD TO INDIAN LARRY SEGMENTS*
These bikes were built by all the guys in the shop, Paul, Kino, chromers, paint shop guys, eng. And transmission shops…not just Larry. Give credit where credit is due.
I met Indian Larry at a bike show in Kingston NY about 2004. He had a few of his bikes there , they were for sale and you could have picked them up around $45,000 cash. I saw one of his chain frame bikes, and a few of them had double barrel shotgun barrels for shifters. Gret old school choppers, too bad some one talked him into doing the cross that one last time

Larry was the best. His partners or maybe Billy lane shoulda bought em rode them. I bet Larry would've liked that.
I dont think Billy Lane has a drivers license anymore
larry would have shit himself if he saw these prices on his bikes
Nobody but Nobody could out build Indian Larry.
I was glad to see the same guy buy both. They belong together and I hope he keeps them together.
Yes I agree
Most definitely. Those bikes are legends that need to stay together forever.

See my profile picture of my '62.....and my dog. It ain't perfect and shiney but, I like it. I'm making it my daily driver.
Ralph you are so right
Sold way to low,a real part of motorcycle memorabilia built by a really great man an builder. RIP Indian Larry.
I got to see his bikes at the Easy Rider show in Houston not long after his death. RIP brother.
never be another man like Indian Larry rip respect
I actually would have thought these would have sold for much more. There are motorcycles that have sold for more. Most West Coast Choppers have sold for the 150k range, and Jesse James is still alive. Given the history of both and Indian Larry, I was expecting anywhere in the 300,000 to 450,000 range for each. I would have said 250,000 would be the min.
You NEVER see an OCC bike go for this price. OCC bikes were not for riding, they were for showing. You can buy them all day long for way under 20 grand.
This video brought me to tears R.I.P Indian Larry
In what became is signature performance, while standing on the back of his moving motorcycle, Indian Larry fell, caving the back of his head in. He was killed instantly.
I know what I do if I had that motorcycle I have in my bedroom
The day indian larry passed away choppers died along with him larry is forever a two wheeleed chopper legend i think if he was still aluve he would be racing vintage bikes with billy lane's sons of speed viva la grease monkey rifa siempre
This bikes-national heritage.They place-Museum.And only their.
Well I didn't personally know indian larry. But we had a lot of somewhere philosophies. And I can tell you in my opinion, That he would think at some point. Past around 30, -40 grand. Respect is one thing. And a sucker is born.
Every minute.
that guy has an amazing wife... epic
I guess his ole lady was more interested in the $$$$$,,,, I am a bit pissed over it, but maybe that Is what Larry would have wanted,,,,RIP GREAT ONE,,,, 😎✌✝💕💕💕
*KUDOS TO THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL/BIKER BUILD OFF.. FOR INTRODUCING THE WORLD TO INDIAN LARRY. REWATCHED EPISODES WITH INDIAN LARRY COUNTLESS TIMES. FAST FOWARD TO INDIAN LARRY SEGMENTS*
Both bikes are displayed at Legends Motorcycle Museum in Springville Utah
Would love to see his life in a movie with Norman Reedus as Larry😎 Absolutely work's of art! Hope they ride those bikes.
Norman is as down to earth as larry was. That would be the coolest motorcycle movie ! RIP Rat Fink 🤘
These bikes were built by all the guys in the shop, Paul, Kino, chromers, paint shop guys, eng. And transmission shops…not just Larry. Give credit where credit is due.
1st bike Sold for $205,000 (not including auctioneer's fee). The other one sold for $150,000.
I met Indian Larry at a bike show in Kingston NY about 2004. He had a few of his bikes there , they were for sale and you could have picked them up around $45,000 cash. I saw one of his chain frame bikes, and a few of them had double barrel shotgun barrels for shifters. Gret old school choppers, too bad some one talked him into doing the cross that one last time
These should be in his shop, in NY, auctioning them. Bikes is like robbing the mummy tomb, should be on display at his shop. People are fucked.
A fram of chain?? No there no stability!! Thats only Show bikes no rear suspension!! Nothing for curves, i dont understand whats good on this bike??
Serious question: I don't know much about bikes at all. Why is Indian Larry so highly regarded? No offense at all, but those bikes look pretty basic to me....
*WONDER IF BILLY LANE OR JESSE JAMES NEW ABOUT THE AUCTION. THEY SHOULD OWN THESE TRULY ONE OF A KIND BIKES* ANOTHER HAND CRAFTING BUILDER, SIMILAR TO INDIAN LARRY, SEEMS MOST APPROPRIATE, NEXT TO A PUBLIC MUSEUM
