The original story was in easy rider magazine he lived in Green Bay and would ride it to Oklahoma in the middle of the night police shot him on his property

​​​​@@slickdoglong3669Why did they shoot him? Like, the _real_ story. How would I look up information about the situation? I don't think googling 'Bill RoaDog death, which is all I know, will come back with great results.😢

​@@slickdoglong3669why?

​@@mrtechie6810seems like a question you could answer using the very internet that you're already on.

​@@KenanTurkiyeprick.

Hahaha at least an inch

Seems to me that it was the same when he got off it as it was when he got on... Maybe it was not the beard that grew :D

Wow that’s amazing

Bill said it rode so nice down the road you could shave while riding down the highway

I think the engine was green like the fenders when I saw it , I don't remember any red at all

Ishpeming. Not far from where I live now. Da yoopers tourist trap was fun when I went through as a kid.

@@poopsmith6853 my grandparents bar is now the American legion post 114. That's where I saw the bike and that's where I grew up

Same here,i Saw It in a local motorcycle magazine for unique and historical bike

4 bangers for ya 😂

The exhaust is longer in this bike then the car it was originally designed for lol

I still can't figure out why this guy thought that was the best long haul bike its a handful heavy an under powered

@@adamthomas4638 sounds like a perfect idea! I did a cannonball in my truck without ac in May Missouri made my windshield green 😂😂

@@adamthomas4638 I'm assuming most of his long haul riding was out west lol

You bashing whistling diesel and Kentucky ballistics? Lol

@@zandersmith2466pretty sure those were both direct @ them lol. Way too specific

Just saying

Super cars corn fields I only know of one

How is Kentucky wasting money when that’s the content he makes😭😭

Thanks for watching

BOOM!! thats where I also first saw it.

Not only is a road trip a requirement, you need to do the four corners on it.

@@BikesandBeards my 1st time seening it ( or a really good clone but kinda dowt it, probably the original as its just to weird for most to copy and hard as well to copycat ) was after work and at the/my miss's/her-girl-friend's/partners home being on the front steps/front-yard going down us30 in overton NE heeding to Kearney ne and thinking o that's clever but ugly 🤮 and "rat-rod themed 🐀", didn't know that it's a 50/60's historically important and $$$ bike or the man behind it ect, and yes im in a similar situation career wise so i can respect him as a millwright and temptation to transform myself into a full mechanical engineer in the automotive industry or areo-space industry with the goal of mars/going to space/prestige ( and $ ) that comes with those types of achievements sorry im a proper crocker/indinan/v6/vavllacary-or-v8 ( insert 426/or/440 here ) type individual, and my 1st/only bikes so far are KX125 1990-95*? ( sold it to pay for my wedding 👰ring lolz after high school graduation day/same month ) brain fart-year and my dad's/borrowed goldwing 80's/90's GL1800? gone/sold for mom's kitchen table lolz 😂something about her worrying about me being injured or dad dieing/her being a ( late-90's/2000's ) widow with kids anyways im more into car's/hot-rod's currently as motorcycles 🏍aren't something i have room for ( Idaho/Utah/Montana/Portland-ect* 😉 apartment +roommates and winter and outside only parking ect nowadays, in 2013~ it was different for me as i had a lexington/Lincoln ne rented-home with a small 1-car/tin-Lizzy garage unheated and could actually have seen myself ride/motorcycle to work ect ) and the bigger thing is $$$ so my 60 charger and k1500 win for now

@@irvhh143 that's sad...and a terrible waste. Can't believe the cops shot him.

yeah, I wouldn't crow about that tbh

@@BN1960 it’s like getting a old car from history

*I sat on this bike in 2000 (Chicago). Buzz was in the other room and I jumped on.* *Torque effect steering issue is well known in helos and balanced on a twin rotor (spinning opposite). You might be able to mount an opposite side dummy driveshaft that spun opposite direction to balance that out. Maybe it's a simple design like a drill or angle grinder hidden in the frame with a flexible shaft (mandrel) extension driving another unconnected shaft on the left side.*

I don’t see it as a part of motorcycle history, I see it as the creation of a confused individual. Someone obviously wanted a car, but just didn’t know that they could use more than 2 wheels. It isn’t fast, doesn’t handle good, doesn’t look cool, isn’t comfortable to ride or anything that is important in a motorcycle. It’s the dumbest failure at making a motorcycle in recorded history. It has no value except for showing how dumb the creator was.

@@adamr9215 found the guy who's GF he stole XD

I am pretty positive society doesn't care about two dudes riding a bike. It 2023 not the 1990's

Of course lol

@@fenrir7969 if Matt was riding the other one, id have to put my money on him to win. Sean is a great rider but Matt is fearless!

I would definitely watch a " Roadog Road Trip" video!

Absolutely not I like your videos lol and want to keep watching them

YES

#25 on trending, congrats!

would not want to miss a road trip with it ! Awesome video ! Crazy machine !

Thanks my friend

I don't think it's stupid. But I wonder how many beers it took to build it. The engineering is on a whole nother level. If Johnny Cash’s “One Piece at a times” Cadillacs title weighed 20 pounds. How would you even class this monster?😄

That passage is about morality, not things you like. It's not a good idea to take bible verses out of context, many grifters and servants of satan do so to confuse and mislead people. When we do it in innocence, like you did, we make it harder to spot the liars.

Ugh

sometimes not so accurate but nobody is perfect, yeah a little hard to take sometimes but whatever

There is more than one mechanic in the world, was looking to see if someone besides me picked up on that. Good job.

Or would it be the opposite? For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.

Most auto engine crankshafts turn counter-clockwise when viewed from the rear looking directly at the flywheel. That would mean turning left is in the direction of crankshaft rotation. At 11:15 you can see the crankshaft spining toward the left (counterclockwise) if you are facing forward.

He was going to slow, I understand the caution, but at a point you are just increasing the risk of something happening. Like anything on a bike, commit, and there is a speed to do it at.

Someone didn’t watch through the end of the video…

Me and my buddy were there too. We rode from SC to see the museum. I didn’t get to watch the filming as much as I would have liked cause the museum was awesome.

Hanging out with Matt is always a blast, and he is genuinely that awesome

@@BikesandBeards get the original Boss Hoss and I will be impressed

So unexpected, yet so hilarious lol

God works in mysterious ways

You read my mind

yea, looks like a hilly billy home brewed bike

​@@zack9912000call it whatever you want The guy who built it was an aerospace engineer Ugly as it might have been the bike was 100% functional

No you're not we are attracted to stuff like this 😂

It won't be everybody's cup of tea.. but that's the life and brain work of an engineer right there.. people in the metal work and engineering field often get an aching to do something different.. something that nobody ever thought of no matter how insane other people may see it.. but that's what got William Harley to build his first engine, isn't it.. No intent on any offence or confrontation.. just trying to point out that if there weren't "Wild Bill's" in the world, we'd still be riding bicycles instead of internal combustion engined vehicles.. Much love to you all.. Ps, just wanted to reflect on a funny coincidence. . Wild Bill's name was William if I'm not mistaken.. William Harley was also known as Big Bill.. must be in the name I guess..

That and you have the jacks…

Agreed, I think more people have walked on the moon, [12] than have ridden that bike.

John Parham

@@Ari-pw6nu he also went by Jack.

​@@robcreel4257Yeah, Jack was always a nickname for John. But my uncle was JACK by birth (christened as such) and my aunty insisted on calling him John because that was the "proper" name... drove us mad! 😂😂

well, it does look like it was made for a 7'2 guy, lol. Controlling it probably wasn't an issue for that guy.

Gelbke was Bill's last name? German, Eastern European ancestry? His parents know Albert Einstein in late 1930s?

Iron Duke.
