massive collection of motorcycles and parts all for sale. part 2 of my abandoned junkyard exploration Music: I'm Letting Go Musician: Josh Woodward URL: www.joshwoodward.com/ License: creativecommons.org/licenses/...
That is soul destroying seeing such hoarding mentality. It just heart breaking how many memories could have been made had they been salvaged properly ☹️💔
Not only amazing but to a true lover of bikes for 50 years now, it’s sad all those bikes are there, with the smallest amount of maintenance they’ll run forever basically. With a magical parts room I’d rebuild every one that was salvageable. Thanks for sharing
He has sold some bikes. It's nice to see them get saved. I've actually bought 2 vehicles from him and gotten one back on the road. Thanks for watching!
I'd have to spend a couple a year's there to rescue some a the better bikes ...' on a short stint though noticed a few cb's & xlr's & a kawa Ltd.. worthy of hauling outa therw & restoring...
Wow, that's a lot of motorcycles. I saw a few bikes I'd love to get my hands on. My first bike was a Honda SL 175. It would be cool to restore one for nostalgic reasons. But, my all time favorite bike is the 305 Dream. It kills me to see them rotting away in this woods. I'm glad he's letting them go so they can be brought back to life. Fun video.
That was my first real bike too. ‘71 or ‘73(I forgot) in gold metallic. I road it to HS almost every day. Hated those dual carbs and it was geared so low I could not use it on the freeway. Still I loved it. Think I sold it in the 90’s for $200 bucks at a garage sale😂
@@flatbrokegarage its been getting more of a riding season than it used to be. In 23 yrs it's gone from a 3month riding season to about 5months. Climate change lol. But we have some long straight aways here. Where you can open up your bike for 8 to 10 minutes mine flat out will run 223 mph that's some serious moving. I've been faster but I sold that bike so I wouldn't kill myself.
This man is a friend of mine he's 90 years old those bikes have been collected for seven years he's made a very good living selling parts off of them. He recently retired but may find him there sometimes in the morning and he will give anyone a very good education but motorcycles, Racing ECT
There must be 2 guys with this many bikes 😆 who would have guessed. This guy is a buddy his name is Steve. He's about 70 years old. Lives in Polk County
OMG!!! I literally had to stop this video every 3 or 4 seconds to see every everything. At least half a dozen Honda CT 70's, more two stroke road bikes than I have ever seen and my first bike ever , a Kawasaki KV 75 made this video about four times. Wow, just wow...
Wow. I’ve always had a love of scrap yards all I ever saw was potential. Love bringing bikes back to life. The joy of resurrection has a feeling that just can’t be beat. Some say just buy one already done. Funny I work on there bikes. Those who share the passion understand
A bunch of bikes have been saved from there. I like to see them back on the road. I've bought 2 cars from him and have them on the road as well. I totally understand what your saying. Thanks for watching!
Came here for the bikes and saw the Suzuki LJ20. I am currently restoring one. Boy, I wish I could get my hands on it for parts. Those are super scarce!
I’m 65. I see a lot of nostalgia here. Not much here will ever run again. I think this guy would make more money just l turning this into an open air park with a small coffee stand. Plenty of motorcycle minded people would be happy to drop a tenner to spend some time wandering through here. And hey, might just sell something.
Since the video has came out, the owner has been selling bikes and meeting guys from all over the country. It's n8ce that bikes are being saved and he gets to meet guys that li e bikes as much as he dose. Thanks for watching!
I definitely love to get my hands on some of those Honda '90s and a CT 70s bring them back to life That's a place where if I had to pass away that would be the place to stay 🤣
Yeah, once the weeds start growing in the engines you are going to need a lot of restoration. You can leave a machine sitting in a low moisture area for a long time, but not in the foliage.
I just bought a 31 yr old Honda four hundred superfour ,every single bit off paperwork come in a bag .I got every mot it has done all old taz discs ,i had it out at weekend for frst time and she rides beautifully,suspension needs sorted for my weight ,but that’s it .well pleased
@@johnkoury1116 they are in southeast Tennessee, the email link is at the end of one of the junkyard videos or you can email me at flatbrokegaragetn@gmail.com
@@flatbrokegarage I saw that , thank you. My best friend buys bikes and restores them . He has found and sent fifteen or twenty restored bikes back to Japan where they went to executives of Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Honda. Some of them were not even restored. They just wanted the bikes.nI really wanted a couple atc 110's to take apart and build a fat tire bike from but then I saw that one already made at 11:42 or 8 or something right before that cool 2 cylinder race car with the woolly boogers on the back..You have some awesome videos my friend. I am starting a RU-vid channel because I am starting a small engine repair and machine shop business leaving life in Big Pharma as a chemical engineer due to the way they think...My first video is where I was at this awesome scrapyard in Ringold's Pa and found a Yamaha three wheeler that looked like someone dropped it out of a helicopter . I bought it and I am going to restore it on video.I will email you in a few. I have to go move my car in this 25 degree weather we are having....
Those Suzuki 4x4's were made specifically to fit in the box of a pickup. I remember my local Suzuki snowmobile won one for selling so many sleds one winter. He had it in front of the place in the back of his pickup for advertising, for years.
It's a shame this one is so far gone. I watched a RU-vid series on some guys restoring one. Think it was @fabrat channel. I guess not many made it to the U.S #fabrat
Wow ! I think every make and ModelMotorcycle out there had some type of an affect on my life many of them i owned or had ridden either that model r one very close to that year or Model ! i was a Lucky guy to have many aquantances that rode and would swap out with each other plus We had a localRental Repair Shop that kept a wide variety of Motorcyclex inStock as I grew up in a very high Tourist Area
What a shame it will probably get crushed love to have that 68 or69 cl 350 and a couple of the ct70 among others I saw this place is a gold mine for builders seen a lot of tanks and other parts that would make good money on ebay lot of classics there.
Amazing collection , every bike has a story, you could write easy 10 books if you knew their stories the peeps that bought and rode and got rid of there 2 wheel freedom machines.
It's been interesting just meeting some of the people that have come to buy them. The dedication they have to saving them and the story's why they are.
I saw a blue Honda cb360 1975 in the bush, I have been looking for one of those bikes for a while now. I could rebuild and bring that one back to life. Shame to see that being so neglected. Wish I knew where this place is.
Everything is for sale. He has sold a bunch after this video went up. You can email me. I can get you setup with contact info. The yard is in southeast Tennessee. My email is flatbrokegaragetn@gmail.com
I dont get emotional on these the bikes where bought just like this before going to junk yard to recycle it but this guy has bought and stored and so so so many good parts available 😂😂😊😂😊
Haha. A skid steer with a ripple and a couple of 40 yard boxes would be a good start. There was a place like this down somewhere outside of NYC that had much more than this. They were in collapsing warehouses as I remember. Think they burned or something. Kind of an addiction, no?
No way he could still have titles for all them street bikes and oh my goodness them Camaros yea I understand the SS is worth more money but the none SS ones is still awesome in my eyes
greed is a bitch. I'm sure he's had lots of offers on particular bikes but that same interest gives crazy old men the idea that its worth more to someone else just bc ur interested in it, the deal will fall thru & the bike simply rots forever when it could've had a home..
I am so sad... humans..... in a hundred years our great grandson's and granddaughter's will be cursing us for the trashed we left behind! Imagine that 😮
When us Brits think that 2/3s of the British motorcycle industry output at its peak was exported to North America , we should be heading here to help repatriate some of it!
There's a smaller place located near me, about half the size. I've always gone there to look around and dream about what could be found if someone took the time to sort through everything. However, it's unfortunate that, at least in the one near me, they're quite reluctant to part with any of it, and the prices are exceedingly high. As far as I understand, it used to be (and to some extent still is) a cycle shop. The owners are semi-retired and generate income through repair work, but over time, the bike parts have turned into more of a collection.
