I’m 75 and no legend but I just bought a another shovel basket and I hope I get to finish this one too. If I can’t ride it I know a young fella that if he does enough putting it together I’ll give it to him.
Aside from the Larry Pierce videos, this has to be one of the best build invite videos. To me it feels like the beginning of what should be an hour or so documentary on Tom.
Legends never die and legends are never forgotten when it comes to the end of their day they just kick start their bike and write off in the sunset and aren't seen again but they are never forgotten and they are always remembered...
I love his style...I love how he´s not playing to be the worlds toughest and hardest rocker n´ biker. I love his how he´s thinking... I think he´s one of few TRUE bikers...
True saud.. At least he live life he want,Freedom,humble man,giving inspiration doing what he love,..and best part is that he was companied by a good carring Lady whom love him bcoz of what he is..
Nah man obviously the real bikers are the old timers nowadays on their bagger just complaining about how the younger generation doesn't understand what being a "true" biker is. Tom fugle is the real old generation of biker
@@TwIsTeDxGuArDx damn true... All these old heads calling people "hipsters" and "posers". Like come on. Ever thought about the fact that its just a lot of fun to chop and ride a bike? That its fun to hang out with friends? Nah that never crossed their minds. Obviously all us youngsters are doing it for our "social media profile". Garbage. As if its so prestigious to ride a chopper lmao... Tom is one of those man that got it. That understand that life is about fun. And thats it.
Indian Larry, David Mann, Tom Fugle and now Arlen Ness. All the guys that were doing it when I was growing up in the 70's and 80's are starting to leave us..... Damn.
@@sopascat7 Right on sir! I get discouraged when I see Big Wheel, Easter Egg bikes with 10 million amp stereo's doing the 20 mile and 40 Grand thing sitting in front of bars. Then I see some kid gettin' it on blasting down the road on a bike built to RIDE, packed for a long weekend run that is going to cover MILES. Then I know everything is going to be alright. Ride on...
160 people who dislike this short film, why. This man was a true founder of the chopper scene and represented the true meaning of being free. As free as a man can be
Thank you Tom, thank you Mrs. Fugle for the inspiration of doing what we want, my wife is just like you. When I stare at my bike she says go ride. I am 72 so every chance I get and she lets me, I do. Thanks much
You are a legend my Brother. Living free in a country doing its best to destroy it is not an easy task. We need more superhero’s and role models and you sir are both.
I spent many hours with Tom in his basement. He showed me how to use a torch, the right way. I love how he thinks. He loves to make art, and I love him for it. Way to go Tom..
My buddy and I ran into Tom at the Yokohama mooneyes show ,he absolutely had that sparkle in his eye and you could tell he just loved being there , had the grin and enthusiasm of a of young kid. Just inspiring .
Man, I would have liked to have met that man! I'm 40 years old, I grew up in TN and I've always been taught when someone older than you speaks, you shut up and listen! I've worked in the Construction industry for the past 16 years and I've had the privilege to meet older men like Tom that can build cool shit like that! Thanks and God bless everyone!
Killer vid, Tom you are bringing back so many good times. Im 63, the doc says Im at least 70 insides. I have built many choppers too. I could go for ever. But thank you
He is and will always be a legend on this world and the world he created for us that love and enjoy choppers. Rip Mr. Fugle. You taught us how to proceed into life doing what you love.
I've had the great opportunity to meet and talk to this guy a couple of times a few years back when I lived up around Sioux City. It's so cool that they did a tribute to him because I've told quite a few people about this dude and how awesome and real he is and how the blue panhead he had with him at the time I met him was and is the most beautiful chopper I've ever seen in my life! I wish I could find pictures of it.
These are the lessons to be learned. This man built chops before discovery Channel. Now he's getting his dues. Young cats will never appreciate what the old cats made. Respect
Mad respect for Tom . Anyone who loves two wheels and wind in their face knows that he didn’t waste a minute of his life building and creating his bikes! Godspeed!
Irredecent multispectral paint, saying and remembring that is harder than building the bike !! I am 73 and just bought an FXDR love it, long life and great health and keep the wife by your side Bro. God Bless
Both are so laid back,makes for a great story that it's not scripted ,no star lighting and makeup just life and the reality of it not cut and reassembled .
Well we here in Australia can sure appreciate your beautiful work Tom. A perfectionist with limitless vision. Thanks for the privilege of seeing your dedication !
Classic example of what it really is and means to be a real genuine 100% biker that lives and breathe the culture and people with his artistic mechanical visions and abilities are precisely what has always been what separates motorcycles,riders and enthusiasts from the rest! Ride on old boy
RIP...Tom....I wanted to tell you...as long as you remember what you did in this life thats whst counts. He has re entered no doubt...maybe a Latino boy again...with a irresistible attraction to the neighborhood bikes...
A man, a choppername those of us who w been here for some decades become familiar to. Tom are pretty much a cultural institution. Tom w always been around.
