- For Neil Zarama, motorcycles have always been a constant in his life, from his youth growing up in Colombia, to building his first Triumph chopper in the Central Valley of California, to his humble garage in San Francisco where he builds a knucklehead for Born Free 2024. Despite his battles with mental health and depression, he radiates a sort of positivity and optimistic nature propelled by a powerful work ethic shaped by his adopted father, the only one he ever had. He discusses the importance of working with your hands, his reconnection with his Native Chiricahua Apache roots, and the value of a long ride on a chopper. I am honored to share his story. Salud.

I have to pin this comment
He is so right when he says , “ if you build it, you know what’s wrong and how to fix it”. Wise words for all those thinking about building a bike.
Another superb production. Great filming and editing of the long version. These films are similar to Chopper Prophets' sit-down interviews some years ago and very insightful and enjoyable.
From southern California ~ Ride Forever! 🦅
Love from the Chickasaw Nation. Beautiful bikes!
Neil is one of the best guys out there. Much love my friend!
Absolutely my friend!
Hands down the most criminally underrated motorcycle channel on TH-cam. Amazing stories and shot with care and passion, legit each new drop should be an event
Thanks for this comment, it means a lot. I put my heart in this project.
I second that fully. Top-shelf for sure. 🙌🏻
I love how he is able to display all the wrong stuff that happened in history and can blame people without offending them directly. Really great. Really humble.
Saw his bikes at last years chop show in Stockton. Absolutely beautiful machines.
I would love to see more of the jewelry. Looks really nice.
Really cool bikes. He nails the tiny details
His born free build is going to be INSANE
Oh maaan.. love that cozy place and to be inside working on them bikes must be fun. The vibes are there for sure!✌😎
Man I can say these videos are good for my mental health! Thanks 👌

This is awesome.
I'm from SF currently in Sacramento, love the old bikes my current bike is an all original 1974 Ironhead, have a blessed week my friend
Dude I love ironheads. I have an 82 and it’s such a fun machine. Appreciate you man!
Brother living your dream is priceless keep enjoying life my friend
I have one of his necklaces. He's a very underrated silversmith; and you're a very underrated videographer.
This vid is dope! Thanx for all uploads 🙏🇸🇪
Once again I really enjoyed listening to the raw interview before watching the edited documentary. It's really interesting to observe the story and edit decisons you've made. Looking forward to the next one.
That one was an amazing story and some beautiful choppers of course 👍🏻
Amazing men! I am from Colombia and you are welcome, it’s really beautiful to listen to your story.
Wow! Neil is awesome!
This dude rules. Respect.

LOved it
The worst genocide in human history and it is still going on... we must never forget our roots, our history. Thank you for bringing it to light
Genocide is a ongoing human phenomenon, since existance of the human race. There’s no single root, more common roots shared by all humans.
where is it going on?
@@sqd37l In Quebec Canada the GOV is still forcibly sterilizing Native Women...
They're saying the same thing in Canada too but that's a strange definition of genocide where the population has only increased every year since 1867. Gfy red supremacist first nationalist xenophobes original haters of emigrants.
@chikor1074 exactly and it’s being erased
Keep at the stories of people
~~~ CHOPPER ~~~
KOOL SCULPTURE ‼️
thanks 。
from tokyo japan
Tokyo friends! I'm booking a flight next year!
🤘😎🤘
In Canada more than 50% of them signed their own children up to go to residential schools. Many were orphans with no parents to be found that didn't get permission to be put there.
how can this get more views?
Would you ever sale this bike brother

$30 for a basic times new roman font shirt printed on gilden 5000? C'mon
All the money goes back into producing these videos.
Thanks for watching and being here my friend, I appreciate your time 🙏
