so i didnt watch everything, just the last one, and skipped through most of it..but i caught the part where he starts taking off the last wheel..
"It's amazing how quickly the wheel comes off".. then it cuts to him dropping the wheel out, and next frame the new tire is installed..

they left out about 8 minutes of "mother f's" and "G.D. rear brake caliper's in the G.D. way!" haha

That's funny Sgt Jim, of course if I filmed the entire 20mins of fighting with the caliper you would have clicked off or fell a sleep. Yes the power of editing is pretty awesome!

But you get the jist of it.

Thanks for watching!

Chris

I watched them all and like what your doing. Keep it up and maybe velocity, history, or one of them will pick you up.

I subscribed (but that means you have to subscribe to my channel too! Also thought about doing something similar with my build - making videos as I go, but I don't have that kind of time. Working full time, in school full time, and wedding planning... Trying to build a Harley in a tiny shop takes up the rest of whatever free time I've got left! Looking forward to seeing the rest of your build.

Default Nice Job!

I watched these yesterday and you're doing a nice job. I especially liked the Shotgun Shock install video. I think that may have given me the motivation to pull the trigger for my 08 Deluxe. As soon as J.D. gets my PM I should be on may way.

Looking forward to the next vids from you. Enjoy your build!

Ride Safe,

Chris
