[iLOVEadamANDaj]

FUGGIN SICK...

[BadazzShovelhead]

Man I love the stuff you guys build. EXACTLY the way they should be clean rideable no frilly shit. The flow of the bike and the stance is great. I have an Evo crate motor in a wishbone frame nothing fancy just dependable, clean. Big fan of Toledochoppers.

[sweddehli]

in Sweden we call that engine, Early shovel.

[FUCKNUT0]

NICE SHOVEL ,SHOVELS JUST LOOK SO SICK I LIKE PAN'S AND KNUCKLES BUT MY NUMBER ONE IS SHOVEL IRONHEAD TOO

[nccamokid]

i really want an older harley i was looking at an old sporster i believe its a 73 1000cc but im only 16 bout 140 pounds and i have a feeling it would back kick me over my house, ive never tryed to kickstart one, any chance a little guy like me would be able to start one? and i was also curious can you catch a v twin on a compression stroke like an old big bore dirtbike?

[drkbart]

I get a kick out of the "where can I get the gears" questions as they don't realize thats what just the way a '69 sounds, nothing special. Always liked the whine !

[drkbart]

Last year of the "real" Hogs ! Wish I could post a picture of my '69 circa 1975.

[tammiep777]

i have an 82 shovel with boar kit, im having trouble with it puking a good amount of oil out of crank case breather hose,is it normal ,i ride it once a week and it sits the rest of the time, i dont have filter on end of hose either does it matter

[toledochoppers]

It's typical with the old shovels. Your check valve spring might be weak and need replacing, or the check valve seat might need to be remachined. They will still leak a little out the breather after they sit for a while.

[SuperUnknownMC]

@tammiep777 If it is gushing out the crankcase vent on start up, you have over filled your oil tank. Let it run till it stops puking oil out the crackcase vent. Then check your oil. If there is some in the oil tank, start the bike and make sure you have oil pressure showing on a gauge, If you have pressure, then your oil tank is filled to the proper level, and you shouldnt have that problem again.

[MegaLarsemann]

awesome bike man

[Gregg608]

Can you tell me who makes them and where I can get a set for my 78 Shovelhead?

Thx

[toledochoppers]

Sorry the bottom end on the 69 is completely different from the 78

[Gregg608]

Any idea where I can get a set for my 78 Shovelhead?

Thx

[Gregg608]

That engine sounds great. What causes the whine noise? It sounds like a supercharger turning.

[toledochoppers]

Its the gears in the timing cover

[Gregg608]

@toledochoppers Can you tell me who makes them and where I can get a set for a 78 Shovelhead?

Thx

[Gregg608]

@toledochoppers I'd like to get a set for my 78 Shovelhead. Can you tell me who makes them and where I can get them?

Thx.

[Gregg608]

@Gregg608 Can you tell me who makes the gears and where I can get them for my 1978 Shovelhead?

Thanks!

[hd79freedom]

O that wonderful sound !

[mydejavooo1]

What did you end getting out of this one? I'm looking at a 74 FLH right now, and just wanted to see what they are worth.

[toledochoppers]

$11000.

[RusW0lverine]

awesome bike, is it a hardtail ?

[mroovax]

wow

[gorditaking69]

I want a bike exctley like that !! Do you buy and resell for people ? i like the big flh fron ends but want a bobber hardtail

[toledochoppers]

I have a 1974 FLH rigid that will be for sale in a couple of months

[gorditaking69]

Im kinda in same market for something like that bike !! Do you buy rebuild alot yourself ? Id just like to find something along the lines of a hardtail cheap and tear it apart redo it myself like i want it.

[nicholasyoder]

I have a '69 I need a seat for mine. Where can I get a seat exactly like that one. That's looks perfect! Very nice cycle!

[vcMalice]

what's one of the easier ways to go about buying one of these bikes. in a couple years i'll be in the market for a good shovelhead. I don't want some 2000-something kawasaki or some garbage like that, or a new harley, but a genuine badass shovelhead. If it's as easy as going on some place like cycletrader and finding it i'd be stoked

[toledochoppers]

There are plenty of good old shovels for sale on ebay..

[pking1981]

@toledochoppers

I just got one off craigslist a few days ago... and engine looks to be in excellent shape. Just needs a tranny :)

[robalsager]

[dukeboy3]

[VinnyTheCuz]

Sick bike!

[FingerLickinGravy67]

sweet fuckin montrose, bike too

[Cheeseburgers4Brock]

Hey man, got a question for ya. I know nothing about "bobbers"...is this like bobbing the bike down to make it shorter? This bike looks nice as hell! Do you make these and sell them? What this do for a guy at my height (6'4") ? Thanks!

[BikerRussell]

When you bob a bike, you remove alot of unneccesary parts. Many bobbers look small because of the lack of parts that would normally make them look bigger. If you cut the parts off and cut the frame to get a certain look, you have a chopper.

[that1timethat1day]

Hell of a scooter, dude! Got time, check out the '79 I just posted.

[MrBeachyspuds]

man thats nice. i want one

[makmewan2]

dam whats that winding sound some kind of gear drive let me know

[toledochoppers]

The gears on the cam cover side of the motor

[naitzirc]

Hmm, if we call this a 10... from 0 - 10.. how good would you say a sportster is ?

[HonRevPTB]

Definitely one of the best Shovels I've ever seen!!! I wish I would have seen this earlier. I would have bought it no questions asked! Do you know if the guy who bought it, is lookin to sell it?

[toledochoppers]

I just got an email from the guy that bought the 69 and he's really lovin the machine..Thanx, Zander

[bludgeonbridge]

niiicE

[driftingpow]

[snowbiker111]

[toledochoppers]

Rigid / swingarm because I replaced the springs in the shocks with a solid piece. So you got the look of a swingarm frame with the lowered stance of a rigid...Take care and thanks for lookn

[1flh81]

[thecowside]

[nissansaregreat]

I bet if you were to strap on some model plane wings to your arms while riding this thing you'd end up flying. The apes are HIGH! Nice.
