@N4DRR impressive af, I hope I'm able and willing at your vibrant age.

@@thomasborger6548 Thomas my first ride on a Harley Davidson was in June 1956, my first crash was on that same bike, my second crash was in march 1970, my wife was 7 months pregnant when we crashed in San Antonio Tx,that baby now is 52 years old, my last crash was in 2022 in Mount Olive Alabama, 68 years of biking can hurt you or toughing you up,, life has been a good ride for me, just keep riding and you body will let you know when it is time to hang it up,Thomas you are blessed

Wow old fella sending positive vibes from Australia as we love the same girl, like an Uncle of course like an Uncle!

@@davidvanbeek7761 I watched her in her garage "SHOP" yesterday, she took her baby's out into the sun, it reminded me of the time back in 1967 when I had a 1953 HD panhead in a 1949 hardtail frame with a giant rake and springer front end,I was 27 years old and loved that old chopper,she truly loves you and I but her first love is her iron baby's,, as two old Uncles we will share our love with her and her babies

Thank God for people like him!

Meeeee toooo!!

This one runs like a top! Weems knows how to build a motor that’s for sure 👍

Yea 😎

Thanks! Was really cool getting to ride that old history piece 😄

Thanks! I’m glad you liked the video 😄

Totally 😎

Was great getting to ride it!

It really was!

It's a great sounding bike! I love it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

It was so cool getting to meet him! I love that bike and I’m glad someone like Jared got to become the owner of it. I don’t think it could have a better home!

Right!! SO cool.

Me too!!

Totally!!

Thanks!

I think so 😁😁😁

I couldn't live without my bikes!

Man, sounds like your friend is into some cool stuff!! I would love to get a little trials bike of some kind. And I’ve always loved the old triumphs

@@RedRiderCanadaBC Ok My friend had the Brand new Yamaha TT-500 ..Yamaha .. He was riding it down the road wide open to do a spark Plug check. It started raining really hard. A Lady in a Cadilac pulled off to the side of the road. He thought she had pulled over because of the rain. With No Turn signal or warming she hung a U turn in front of him as he went to pass buy her. It broke his Leg in 7 Places. He laid in Traction in the Hospital for a month and he never built the Hillclimber. When he retired from the Mole Trap Business he went into Bird Watching and Bird Banding. He was a Bachelor for many years. Then he got married. His wife lives and breaths Birdwatching too. There was another guy who worked for Millwood Honda in Kalamazoo. He was their BMW mechanic. He also had a Nitro Burning Hill Climber. His was a Norton. I have another Friend who raced BSA Gold Stars in the early 1960's in Grad Rapids MI. He grew up in the City. Married a Rich gal they bought a Farm and went into farming big time. My Dad met him buy spreading lime and marl for him on his Farm. I worked for him the summer I was 16 years old. Worked a lot more hours on the Farm and made more money. Otherwise I would have worked in the Motorcycle shop another year. I had a 1974 Yamaha YZ-80-A I put a GYT kit in it and tripled the power. Took it down to my friend Farm.. I am like 14 years old. My Dad Trailered my bike down there. By then, this guy Phil Smith had a Ossa Phanton.. they are really fast two strokes. He built a Hair Scrambles Tack around the pond. A Guy named Dave Atherton brought his two little kids out they had a Honda QA-50 .. These Two little kids riding the Honda Mini Bikes grew up to be Harley Davidson Factory Flat Track Riders. Kevin and Brian Atherton. Their Dad Dave was a mechanic for Kenny Coolbeth a few years ago. The last year a Harley Davidson XR-750 won the AMA Pro National Championship . Dave Atherton was the mechanic. Dave Brother Ron just retried and closed his Motorcycle shop in White Pigeon about two years ago. He still answered the phone Atheron's Triumph. He was a Triumph Dealer back before Triumph went out of Business. Triumph is back now they even have a new Motocross bike this year. I will send you a link of Dave Atherton racing his Vintage Norton Flat Track Bike and I will send you a link to Kevin Atherton racing for the Harley Factory .

@@RedRiderCanadaBC I started my search for Atherton's and found this bit with Kevin Atherton and his Street Legal XR-750. He is carrying a huge starter motor in the back pack .. Kevin lives in FL most of the time now. BTW FL can be unbearably hot and humid in the Summer. You were there in the Winter Remember. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wzjGMZX336U.html

@@RedRiderCanadaBC Here is a 1 mile Race that Kevin Atherton lead a lot of laps in. On the 1 mile Tracks the bikes need to draft other bikes to be faster. It's like a chess match to be in the right position to win. If you are leading you Probably will get drafted and sling shot passed. In NASCAR they call it a sling shot pass anyway . Because 3 or 4 bikes running together can go faster than one bike can run alone they run in packs. It makes for very exciting racing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7aScIOl_Isw.html

@@RedRiderCanadaBC There was a Red Flag in the race. Rodney Ferris died in that race. He clipped a haybale and went down and another bike hit him in the head. In the last couple of years since NASCAR started running AMA Pro Flat Track races they have put up more air fencing and require the riders to wear air suits ect. The announcer kept saying that they are running 130 to 140 MPH on the straights. Chris Carr and Scottie Parker are two of the all Time Greats. Steve Morehead and Ronnie Jones are still racing the Bultaco Astros on the short tracks. This race was at De Quoin Illionois Fair Grounds. These Tracks are over 100 years old. They were built for Horse Sulky racing. After the Era of Board Track racing the Tracks were high banked and the bikes ran over 100 MPH in the 1920.. Too many Riders and Spectators died. So they started racing cars and motorcycles on the Flat Track Horse Race Tracks at Fair Grounds all over the USA. This race was July 2nd 1995 ,, Joe Kopp was in the Race, his son is racing the 450 CC Single class now and doing well. The Flat Track Racers are a small tightly knit family. www.cyclenews.com/2020/08/article/archives-column-rodney-farris/ I think Shade Tree did an interview about the Lawyer / Judges Triumph. That button on the Amal Carburetor is called a tickler and it primes your engine.

Totally an awesome bike!

They really are!

Glad you came!

Yes!! I hope you get some good riding weather soon! I took mine for a short, chilly ride yesterday.

I hope so 🙂

So sad when people have to leave their bikes behind. I really liked riding this old thing though!

Was a great opportunity to ride this thing and one I won't soon forget!

😁 Thank you! Happy you like the channel!

You're very welcome!

Yea! 😃

Thanks 😄

Thanks John 😁

Thanks!!

​@@RedRiderCanadaBCWelcome...UR...Damn Lucky...U Just..Rode A Picice Of Iconic HISTORY !!!!!

Yoooo another Aussie red head, hey!

Well welcome to the channel! I am glad you are liking it 😁

Yea he is pretty cool for sure

I met his daughter but his wife wasn't home I don't think. Next time though!

Thank you!! I really enjoyed making this one 😁

Thanks!! I had a great time in FL.

Thanks!

The bike is awesome!

Definitely a cool story behind that one hey!

I love that bike!

Totally!!

Thanks!! I really had fun doing this one 😁

Glad you liked it!

Thank you for your support!! Those V-Stars are pretty good bikes eh! I just sold one to my uncle and he loves it.

Totally rad!

I am 😊

Haha yea I was smiling a lot during that trip and I cannot wait to go back!

For sure!

Every bike is different. I cannot do this on my shovel cause I can’t get enough momentum. Plus my leg hits the shock on the way down if I sit on my shovel to kick it.

I could easily get use to a bike like this!! Just once around the block and I was already picking it up 😎

😁😁

Hahah thanks!

So we don't have to be righteous, if we're just old? Sweeeeeet

@gcanaday1 righteous AND young and appreciates what a cool chick she is.

@@scottmccullorg Thank you Scott 🙏 I really hope to meet a good God fearing young man some day soon.

@@gcanaday1 😂

😁

Yea it would take a little getting used to on that old thing. But wouldn’t take long! I really liked riding it.

I've always loved old Triumphs also! And I got to go for a short little chilly ride yesterday 😁

Glad you enjoyed it!!

I've always really like the old Triumphs too.

As long as I have been watching your channel, I have had the feeling that you looked like someone but I couldn't think of her name.lol 😅 I am old 😂 and yesterday I thought of who you reminded me of it's Janis Joplin. she was a Beautiful woman too and you look almost like her . I mean that as a compliment hun believe me. May God Bless you and watch over you always.Amen 🙏

Hahahaha thanks... I guess you're alright too 😆

Hahaha oh man it would be so cool to have an old Triumph built by Weems! And the only limit on how many bikes a parson can own is their garage space lol.

@@RedRiderCanadaBC I’m 100% certain it will happen!! lol that’s exactly right. I hit max capacity a while ago so I’ve got some at mums and some in storage 😂

Such a cool piece of history!

Totally cool eh!

Yea!!

Almost that time Trev! And yes, Weems is a total gem.

😁😁

It was an awesome experience! And I love Triumphs also 💕

​@@RedRiderCanadaBCThe way I look at it the fact you were able to meet Weems and ride a piece of history was the icing on the cake. I must admit it makes me a little bit jealous but at the same time I happy for you though !

It really is.

It wasn’t harder to kick than my shovel lol. I just was expecting it to be easier than it was so wasn’t really throwing my weight into it enough.

Glad you enjoyed it!!

👍 🐾

I like that idea…. Mr Weems could probably get you setup for a great British build. 😊

Hahah I think I need no more projects till the ones I have already are done 😅 Shop is definitely getting cozy here.

Thanks!

Awesome! Thanks 🙂

He's a pretty cool dude

I’ve actually always appreciated the old Triumphs! And, I think I like them before I liked Harley’s to be honest 🤫 😅

@@RedRiderCanadaBC yes, they are classics plus they're easier to kickstart. Strange how the TR's clutch was always stiffer than my Sportster's. So it goes, eh?

Thanks!!

Thanks!

Thank you!! Welcome to the channel 🙂

I really liked riding that old thing.

He really is!

Haha maybe!

Hahah well I could always have the best of both worlds 😆

Never heard of those guys!! Maybe I'll check em out. Do they have a channel?

Yes a channel here and a podcast. They interview people from moto RU-vid, influencers and moto people of some fashion or another. They really enjoy the Kool-Aide. And they host a meet up once a year as well. Weems just did a project with them too.

😁 🐻

Yea he's a good one for sure!

I'll post a short later with some of the missed attempts!

😎

Always! 😆
