1965 Harley Davidson Panhead Chopper FLH


1965 Harley Davidson Panhead Chopper FLH from Jon Glover on Vimeo.
This 1965 Harley Davidson Panhead Chopper was purchased brand new in 1965 by the previous owner. A few years later the owner decided to heavily modify the motorcycle by raking the neck, molding the joints, adding a bates head light, Anderson pegs and a 10 over front end with a 21" spool front hub. The bike was ridden hard for years and preserved it's late 60's heritage. The owner passed away a few years ago and Ty was able to make a deal with the family to keep the bike's time capsule soul on the road. After a quick once over for maintenance and a safety check the bike is back on the road.

Film & Edit by: Jonathan Glover
Music: B.R.M.C
Production Assistants: Kurt Quackenbush, Bekah Long

This bike has soul and character that no modern bike will ever have. You can see the miles and stories in every paint chip, scratch and faded chrome.

49 Year Ride | Generations On The Road | Starring S&J Motorcycles


49 Year Ride - Generations On The Road - Starring S&J Motorcycles from Clutch Monkey on Vimeo.
Produced and Directed by Marc Bencivenga of Clutch Monkey, this short documentary focuses on the rough and two-wheel-tumble life of local Santa Rosan Steve Leandro and his shop S&J Motorcycles. Marc was able to uncover some Super 8 footage from 1974 of the 'Run To the Redwoods", which Steve was a part of, and some 1972 Super 8 footage of the influences in Steve's life to create a film that acknowledges Steve's humble beginings and honors his current impact on future vintage chopper loving generations. Except for the riding shots and old Super 8, this film was shot on the iPhone 4.

You can reach Steve at S&J Motorcycles at 707-586-1895

The Drifter



Hurley and Warner Bros. Records are teaming up to release the much-anticipated autobiographical surf movie about Rob Machado, The Drifter. The film will have a limited theatrical release and will also be available on DVD. The Drifter is directed by Poor Specimen's Taylor Steele. Word on the street is that The Drifter was shot entirely in high-definition.

Rob Machado and Taylor Steele spent over six months in Indonesia collecting footage for the film. As Indo is home to some of the world's greatest waves, it is not far-flung to believe that the world's most famous soul surfer had the surf trip of a lifetime. But the movie goes beyond that, The Drifter also documents Rob's search for life's deeper meaning. The surf trip ends up taking him on a soul-searching journey where he eventually finds himself in Indonesia's outermost reaches with nothing but a surfboard, his journal and a tent. Machado's conclusion after scoring more perfect waves than any surfer could ever wish for? There's always a new dream to chase.

Much of the dialogue in The Drifter is taken from Rob's own personal journals. According to respected surf journalist Nathan Myers, who co-wrote the movie, there is nothing embellished in Rob's candid, heart-felt passages. It is these passages, in fact, that drive the movie, from Rob's epiphany in Bali, to his ill-fated motorcycle purchase, to his decision to delay his return to California, blindly pick a new island on the map, and just go.
