  • Son Mai, a motorcycle builder specializing in choppers, Japanese V-twins, and American V-twins, shares his inspiring journey of immigrating to the U.S. from Vietnam. Through his RUclips channel, he showcases his builds and explores motorcycle culture, reflecting his passion and craftsmanship. Son's accomplishments as an immigrant, father, and husband are a testament to his relentless work ethic. Two pieces of wisdom from Son stand out: “As long as you're not lazy in the U.S., you won’t ever go hungry,” and the importance of a supportive partner, which serves as a motivating force for anyone striving to chase their dreams.

      Literally last few builds have looked almost identical. He has a style for sure but I wouldn't say he's well rounded. He's still new to doing this shit. Indian Larry would shit all over him... He's got my respect but as an amateur not a pro. He's not building his own frames from scratch yet like Larry...

    Been wrenching on bikes for a long time then dipped my toes in to the chopper scene 14 years ago cutting my first frame in half on a Yamaha xs650 to hardtail it. Have moved on to harleys which is probably the natural progression. I came across Son's videos and just let me say this. He is right up there with builders I've watched over the years from Jesse James to Indian Larry. I don't say that lightly. Just watch his LNSPLTBLVD channel. He does it right. No wonky ass rear fenders that don't match the tire radius. He is a true craftsman. In the military I learned the importance of attention to detail and Son takes that to heart as shown by his garage and builds. Thanks for showcasing him. Cheers!

    yesterday was the best ride of my life.
    i was riding out in traffic in LA as you can always imagine how bad it is late splitting on the car pool lane when suddenly a cop in a bike went around me to wave me to follow while he beeped his way through and cars splitting like the RED SEA... passing everyone stuck in traffic as they look like a sheep.

    Not sure how early I came to ya'll but I feel like it was close. Been so great watching the growth of the brand. The back stories are great. Makes us all feel good about following, buying when we can, and pulling for ya. As I've said a few times, you're very lucky to habe a small group of like minded friends. Most of us can't find that. Hard work and more hard work is where it's at. If you work hard... the world is yours and you have personal satisfaction. I been doing what I do 33 years now... but been on my own -alone- since 2007. Really hard to get going...hard to survive the lows and the crazy hits out of the blue... but hard work and staying with it (and lots of prayers!) Leads to all good things. Respect. 👊

    His positive attitude is good, but I don't like his perspective on bikes. It's just a business, to him. It isn't inspirational. What he finds important is money and his family. He doesn't ride (says he doesn't ride much because having kids makes him too important, and what he really means is he just doesn't ride - the short open pipes say it all).
