Ryan's Chopper wedding Feb 3 , 2012

Ryan is marryin his two sweet choppers the day before the show it is gonna be a super fun party I cant wait.

Frame Fixin @ Haifley Bros.

 I had been stressin for the last month about my frame being super tweeked. The front motor mount was bent all to hell the lower legs were smashed all to bits and the front right down tube looked like an arch in a rainbow and time was runnin out to get her done for the show.  Well Kelly and Courtney over @ Haifley bros cleared their jig and got my baby all sweet in a day, Courtney is a maniac when it comes to bending tubes and fixin stuff perfect. He will "rip the TITS off" anything you got. He put a new down tube two new bottom rails, straightened the motor mount and put all the tabs and goodies back perfect. So If you need your frame repaired, straightened, hardtailed or  whateves the Haifley crew can sort you out in an instant and for a super good deal. I love you guys

I heart dipped flames and David the danish Swede

My sweet brother David the Danish Swede who is one of the sweet FUCKER'S came to visit. We had been talking about him coming out to visit for a little while now and he finally came. I asked him a couple months back if he would paint my tank for my knucklehead and he blew me away with what he did. 

We talked of all different ways to do it and he came up with the sweetest idea of all from the boys back in time. I shot some pearly white to start and then  he laid out flames that you only see in dreams. Then he started. Dippin in water with paint on top. It  was the way to go and it turned out amazing. First we did teal green and blue mixed for the first set of flames then purple for the second flames it was super fun cause we had no idea of what we was going to happen with it. My sweet holmbre krash striped the flames which topped it off and then one more coat of pearly white on top. MY sweet squirly brother kelly from Haifley Brothers made the tank with the beautiful dished heart and his big brother dougy did the clean bodywork. I am so grateful to all of you and cant wait to get the beast all finished up and on the road. Love Jeremiah

True Arizona Biker Established 1948 "Morris"

I met Morris just about two years ago. He strolled in with another friend of mine, Jim, who told him about me and the little shop. Since the day I met him he has always been so genuine.  Another real man from an era I wish I could have experienced. He has always been willing to tell me about his adventures in life and motorcycles. He was born and raised in Phoenix and has seen the city grow and grow.  He remembers when Phoenix was all desert, north of McDowell Road and cattle ranches had more population than the city itself.  It was a time when the salt river ran free through downtown.

He showed me a couple of pics that first time.  I was amazed and shared them on the blog. About two weeks ago, he finally dug out the rest of his pictures and shared them with me.  I was speechless.  Morris really has some killer history in this state. He got his first 1938 knucklehead at the ripe old age of 16 in 1949. He used to run around all over Arizona, from Prescott to Nogales, Mexico, with a small gang of friends who had Indians and Harley's.  I couldn't imagine what it must have been like. Dirt roads and trails, truly amazing I bet for sure.

Morris sold his 1938 in 1952 for $200 bucks when he married his wife Virginia, so they could get a new refrigerator. That same year he was drafted into the Army and went to Korea.  He served his time as a Vehicle mechanic. When he came back from Korea he had two children and got back into motorcycles.  Later on down the road his son got the bug for bikes and they shared that relationship together.  In 1995 Morris tracked down a basket case 1938 and rebuilt the bike of his youth with his son. His son sadly passed eight years ago.

He has a beautiful collection of old Indians and Harley's, and still love building them.  At 78, Morris is still going strong.  His sweet wife Virginia is alive and well.  He is a true piece of history in Arizona.  He is a man from a time when men were men.
Thanks so much, Morris.
Love your friend Jeremiah
