Love this. Can tell why Dale figured he is the right dude to take care of her.
Absolutely gorgeous. Can't fault it. I would LOVE that bike. I like his idea that he is the custodian (not the 'owner') of the bike.
man when John got choked up talking bout Dale i almost shed a tear, thanks for the video Matt
Hey Matt I really liked how you and John bonded over the bike your dad gave John . It’s pretty obvious how much John thought of your dad. You guys were fortunate have your dad in your life’s. Matt you are doing great keeping your dad’s memory alive. Thank you Judd Brier
Dale would love that bike. I know Dale would be proud of you Matt.
no BS, no posing, just 100% authentic enthusiasts.
I'm even guessing if there was music backing it wouldn't be big kerrang power chords it would be country. God bless.
That is a great bike...For real men of genius,..lol guys that actually know beer and bikes! what a sound!!! lucky dude!! and i learned a bit more for my frankenharley Flathead custom build..
That is one tight good looking hog .The older the better I say. Wow awesome ,this has to be one of my Loco cruising Harly. 10 on my scale,thank you guys .👍✨️❤️
Nice to see you and matt having a blast riding, that is what dale would have wanted for you.👍
Restoring that original factory gas shut on/off valve takes me back to my first H-D -- a 1950 FL in original factory trim. Thanks Dale and John! Ride safe.
Stopped at the museum on this year’s 8ball ride. Absolutely the highlight of a 5000 mile road trip.
I have a 49 Panhead motor sitting in my living room next to my fireplace.....
PANHEADS FOREVER ✊
You sir are a perfect keeper of that motorcycle. Clearly your love for this bike was seen through the previous owner.
Long time fan , love everything y'all are doing. I really like the no intro , just straight to it.
That Panhead has tons of character! Fantastic bike.
I truly miss my days with my FLH pan. Those sweet summer nights down behind those dented fat bob tanks, feeling the churn of gasoline being turned into wheels through time. You guys bring me back, Thanks.
Every time I see and hear a bike in these videos, I say that’s what I want my first vintage bike to look like. And then I see another and another.
I would love to have had that blue bike that they did a giveaway on a while back that he redone and made it look all original and he just restored it but I think that he ended up putting an electric and kick start on it to make it easier for whoever won the bike and he even found another bike just like it before he did the giveaway and that bike was also restored and the same exact bike went for a very pretty penny at auction
Cool bike since I began watching these videos, I’m starting to want a Panhead.
My dad’s was a 52 or 53, with the black lower legs as well. Even my birth year bike is a Panhead. I believe his was blue, recall my grandmother showing me a picture when I was younger. By the time we were riding together I had forgotten about the Panhead. After he passed I found some pictures, his funeral was 60 years to the day of the first Panhead image.
Fascinating historical piece, and the passion is infectious.
This gave me goose bumps to see this old Pan breathe fire!!! Amazing machine you have sir!!! Matt you have a really passionate employee of all things HD!!!!! Dale would be so proud!!!
Love the radiator cap never change it please
We will be there in one week. Bringing some friends who have never been there. Very excited
Gotta love the passion behind what you guys do. Certainly the symbol that John has on his hand. One day at a time.
The sound of it when heard from behind is more than just sweet!! See you last week of May!
I was born in 49,wish I could look as good as that bike,great video❤️
With any luck I may be down there this summer. We'll see what happens. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Matt Olson's dad built a bike for me in a tiny shed in the middle of a North Dakota wheat field. Best bike ever!
Thanks guys you bring lots of great memories back to this old man. I had a 1952 74 Pan Head. It was a great bike going from English bike to the big 74.
I bought it around 1958 and put lots of miles on it. Then in 61 got stupid and got married couldn't afford the woman and the bike had to sell it. Big Mistake.
That bike is something I would ride proudly.....😎 Thanks for sharing this Video....
Always come away from your program feeling that I got something for visiting , thank you for inviting people into your shop and showrooms like we are friends and neighbors.... really appreciate how you explain a interesting subject matter and the history. This is American Quality in my opinion
This is the channel I come to to get all my motorcycle history FACTS! I appreciate you teaching us.
I can only dream of having a bike that badass, that's one hell of a survivor
This is the best platform to share the knowledge of the museum with everyone not just the lucky ones that are actually able to visit u guys in Maggie Valley great job Matt
I love how the kicker -pedal spins when it's revved. - my mate has a shovelhead and the kicker pedal spins in time with the rpm
I love the energy and enthusiasm of these. It sends me looking for a Harley every time! Since I am currently recovering from a stroke, I still need to rehab my left hand to clutch. (Step one!)
What a machine!!!! Thanks for sharing guys!!!
Makes me miss my 49FL
I was riding it when the EVO came out, they had a hard time keeping up.
WOW💨💥....This what it's all about riding the road...Man i miss riding my bikes down the road....But i am to old ans weak now....
Thanks Matt & John 👍
Shoe🇺🇸
Awesome...u guys making dale proud.
I love the fact, that the style of the harley cruisers have never really changed
My uncle built a Shovelhead hot rod motorcycle from the ground up with a springer front end that has been a little raked and stretched but not overly crazy and he didn't rake and stretch the front end but whoever he bought it from did and they did such a good job doing it you can't even tell unless you know what you're looking at because there is no weld marks or anything and it's an original springer front end too and after they got done modifying it they had it rechromed and everything all my uncle had to do was bolt it onto his bike that was an original Shovelhead frame that was also raked and stretched on the neck of the frame and he put a 180mm rear tire and a 21in front tire on it and he put the same fenders on it as the bike behind the Panhead and coming from a family that builds and races motorcycles and drag cars he didn't leave the engine stock on the Shovelhead he ended up making it have alot more horsepower and go alot faster than they did stock and a friend of his has an all original 40 something Knucklehead trike that has the original paint job and everything and he lives in Texas and he rides it to Bike Week in Daytona, Florida every year and his wife rides with him as well on the back and the trike still only 😮has the original kick start no electric start at all on it😅
So happy I jumped onto these guys/this channel.. Been binging this content for a few weeks now and am absolutely gobsmacked by Matt’s enthusiasm and the honesty and genuine love for these machines from everyone involved In their caretaking. I’ve been into motorbikes for near 40 yrs and have had a plethora of bikes. Always loved the lines of old Harleys and I’m getting my education here-who knows maybe one day I’ll get a barn find up and running.. Until then I’ll ride my Newer HD and hopefully point it in the Wheels through Time direction sooner than later. Cheers
I appreciate the thorough explanation of every part and piece, great camera close ups, sound and all around high quality instructional video well done
Awesome! Nothing better than a period hot rod!
Nice, I ended up using two fibre washers and some yellow gas thread tape to stop my 46 knuckle from leaking. Might have to get that special tool though for the future.
LEGACY will Ride ON ! 🤘🏼
Such a beautiful bike 👍
Amazing bike - someone's life in that machine.
Wow that was so cool to see. Thanks for sharing that guys....
What a kool piece of hot rod history, & looks to be a comfortable ride... Thanx !
Awesome!! Gave me goosebumps when she fired up. Love watching this channel, keep up the good work!!
Awesome to see and hear a great old road burner back in action...Pictured is me on my 73 FX Superglide custom the engine has been 91ci for many years... It's quite capable of pegging the ol'fun meter...keep'em coming...
Being a 73 itt had to be a Shovelhead right?
Awesome stuff John!
How good is that Pan great stuff fellas 🍻🇦🇺
Thats one sweet bike for sure definitely has personality
Dale is smiling.
Where do you find oil and air filters for these bikes?
I got a 49 hotrod since january.It has a knuckle frontend and bobbed fenders, as far as I know its been like that since the late 50s
I’m digging the rims on your bike!! I have a 57 pan rigid I’m working on..I call it Frankenstein!! It was basically a motor and a frame and springer forks..the frame is most likely from the 50s, the forks appear to be aftermarket but look correct for the frame. The engine was rebuilt and never run. Putting Fatboy rims on it, disc brakes, 5 speed trans from a softail in it…made my own fenders cast from fiberglass! Lost of custom stuff…
I've been riding bikes all of my life and need to stop in at Wheels through time before i leave this life
This bike is an 11/10.
I wish my 49EL looked that good.
Nice ride John
thank you, building a '49 EL, just a beginner, every detail is so important, from the guy who makes those fuel tank inserts to the gasket goo you use. Maybe can you fly up to northern Canada and give me a hand for a weekend? We have great beer up here...ride highway 93...
Tip of the hat to you gentlemen! All ways enjoy your content. See you in May.🙂
Incredible motorcycle!
I'd love to see some K model stuff if you can, they just look so cool! Thanks Matt!
Very cool. Matt keeping it going
Right on, that's too cool!
That's beautiful
Man what a ride! 😍
Friggin’ cool bike!
Real like the 49 pan it's got that look like no other
Nice scooter
I'd like to see a video series with John doing repairs and paint.
Cmon Matt, how many favourites can you have 😂😂😂
Sounds great
Man, I love a Pan!
It's so cool.
Had a 57 pan that Bobby Hoh built in 81 it ran really strong itself
had that same bike with an EL .was my first cycle and thats what I learned to ride on
i would love to buy tickets to win this one 🙂
Nice......but I do recall that "improved" front brake on my 54 panhead....which with all new parts, still would not actually stop the bike.
Mine stops almost to good! Set up just right I guess.
Someday I’ll own a panhead that’s almost as cool as this one, since nothing can beat original/touched by the WTT group.
Alright, so.
As I was starting to watch this video, I realized that I've seen this bike before.
I took 3 photos of the tank way back in November of 2013 when I visited the museum.
Lmfao he said
"Newly made vintage parts" 😂
Cool old bike
Cool beans.
Was actually just thinking it would be cool to see a 49 because of the hyrda-glide on the channel
Nothing sounds as good as a pan head
I have a recipe in my head for a Hardtail conversion to a 1200 Sportster, or if I wanna be really dumb, an 883 with a Hammer 1275, set up like the late '40's-'50's STYLE. Seeing this Bike, I would absolutely love to do it as a Tribute. No I wouldn't waste the Original parts on a modern Bike. Plenty of Aftermarket stuff to pay homage.
Awestruck
🖤🖤🖤
So I am wondering if you can just take the old one and put some lapping compound on it and clean it up to make a new seal
V Cool man
👑👑👑
You need to get out of the museum and hit the road sometimes.
I see on a lot of these old Harley's a flatter tread tire on the front. I am looking for a
