His Father Dale (RIP) was the guy that started it all and it looks like Matt learned quite a bit from him. I'm glad he is keeping it in good hands. When Dale had his Harley shop in Ill. I went to check out a new bike...Ten minutes later we forgot about buying a new bike and he was giving me a tour of his museum, for 2 hours starting bikes, letting me sit on them and told me he was going to sell the dealership and moving the museum...His knowledge was insane, I'm glad Matt soaked it up and has kept it going as the museum that runs.

Every MC enthusiast owes themselves a pilgrimage to Wheels Through Time. Dave was such a great guy. He spotted the Indian patch on my jacket and introduced himself and guided me to George Hendee's personal Indian. He took the time to chatted about Indians, sharing some of his knowledge and showing me other Indian artifacts of interest. It seems that his son is of the same caliber as his father. Great museum and good people.

So very gracious of Matt to give you his time and amazing knowledge. He is truly a chip off the old block as his dad was the same way.

Met this guys several years ago while going through the museum with my dad and grandfather. He brought out a vintage Harley with a sidecar and gave us rides on it while doing crazy stuff like wheelies! What an awesome guy and great memory.

LOVE the direction the channel is going. When SRK was selling bikes I would learn all about bikes that I could buy. Now I'm learning bike history! Can't believe this is free content! God bless

I owned a 46 and a 48 Chief and the shifter was on the right and the throttle was on the left. We switched them to the opposite side like a Harley since I had a 1933 Harley at the same time I had the 48 Indian. It made sense to have the shifter and throttle match the Harley for safety reasons. I live in Alabama I'm retired I know these old bikes.

I could listen to Matt talk about vintage American bikes all day long.

[jbradkilpatrick]

Matt and Wheels Through Time are awesome. The hospitality you get there is second to none. That place captures the soul of American Motorcycles.

[Homeboy]

This man's knowledge is just unbelievable. Could listen to him all day. You to Craig. Shawn not so much. Lol

[greengrowlocks]

Imagine a guy that preaches when a vintage motorcycle expert is saying something interesting about the bike..

[JBird]

I like this guy who is going over the bike. He is very knowledgeable and has one of the baddest collections of vintage motorcycles I've seen

[jamesadams]

Great to see you back with new videos. Missed your site.

[Whacintosh]

A Chief build series after the WLA? Man this channel is just going to keep going up and up. It’s like American pickers for bikers lol.

[yoshit]

Matt is the man. His dad is looking down with a smile on his face

[brandonwright]

Matt has forgot more about vintage bikes than I'll ever know.

I wouldn't do much of anything to that Indian other than a few little items...it's much cooler crusty than restored.

If this is where your channel is headed I'm all for it.

Matt, u need to pitch the overhead door tracks up to keep tension on cables when u open door fully .also extension springs can be put on bottom of cables to prevent them from coming off drums

After I bought my Triumph from you guys I found SRK cycles, (and even before I bought my bike from you) Bikes and beards very addictive. I got worried about the future of these channels, and that bikes and beards would disappear once SRK closed. With this kind content both the WLA and the Indian project I find a lot of people getting very addicted to this content. Kudos Sean and Craig!!!

[southpawscientific]

Always like hearing an expert expand on a topic, especially regarding motorcycles. Matt has no ego and is a wealth of knowledge. Not a big fan of American bikes but find these videos fascinating!

[jamesireland]

Comment section always makes me laugh always a handful of know it all professionals. Who are usually wrong no matter what the content is always handful of negative people. Don't know why some just can't watch and enjoy the content lol. Have a good weekend and stay safe Jimmy from North Attleboro Massachusetts
