Dan & Rhino from the Low Life Podcast | Garage-Built Choppers, Harley-Davidson & SmokeOut 26

Mon, 20 Jul 2026 15:00:00 -0400

Garage-built motorcycles aren't just surviving—they're driving the future of custom motorcycle culture.

This week on Shop Talk, Chris Callen sits down with Dan and Rhino from the Low Life Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about building motorcycles the right way, learning through experience, DIY fabrication, paint, punk rock, and the community that continues to keep chopper culture alive.

The discussion takes a deep dive into the Idle Hand Show, exploring how a grassroots idea evolved into one of the country's premier garage-built motorcycle competitions. Dan and Rhino explain why builders who fabricate, paint, wrench, and finish their own bikes are at the heart of the event, and why helping another competitor get to the finish line matters more than taking home the prize.

Chris and the crew also break down Harley-Davidson's renewed focus on motorcycle culture with the introduction of the 2026 Deadwood Bobber, discuss the launch event at Harley-Davidson headquarters, preview everything happening at SmokeOut 26, and spotlight Jay Souza's incredible Indian Four chopper headed to the Legends Gallery.

The episode also features Chuck Garrick's internationally inspired Shovelhead, the return of the Gunstock Hill Climb in Laconia, SmokeOut giveaway updates, and a preview of upcoming events in Sturgis, including the Cycle Source Custom Bike Show, AMCA Vintage Day, Run to the Line, and the Mini Bike TT.

Whether you build motorcycles in your garage, ride every weekend, or simply appreciate the people preserving custom motorcycle culture, this episode delivers honest conversation, industry news, and plenty of the two-wheel bullshit that makes Shop Talk America's favorite motorcycle talk show.

• Dan & Rhino from the Low Life Podcast
• Garage-built choppers and DIY fabrication

What Is a Custom Motorcycle? The Great Motorcycle Debate On ShopTalk 345

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 09:00:00 -0400

This week on Shop Talk, we're diving into one of the most debated topics in motorcycle culture: What is a custom motorcycle?

Before the debate begins, we're joined by Kirk Willard of the Motorcycle Riders Foundation and Bob K from the Independent Motorcycle Aftermarket to discuss the latest issues affecting riders and motorcycle businesses across America. Topics include motorcycle rights, right to repair legislation, anti-profiling efforts, and the ongoing work being done to protect the freedoms riders often take for granted.

Then the conversation shifts into a spirited discussion about custom motorcycles. What separates a stock bike from a modified bike? Where does a resto-mod fit in? Does a motorcycle need fabrication work to be considered custom, or can bolt-on parts and personal vision be enough?

The crew shares stories from years of building bikes, attending motorcycle shows, judging events, and living within motorcycle culture. Along the way, they discuss fabrication, aftermarket parts, show classes, judging criteria, and how the definition of "custom" has evolved over the decades.

We also stop in with Mid USA Motorcycle Parts for a look at one of the industry's longtime suppliers before returning to one of the most entertaining debates we've had in a while.

If you're into custom motorcycles, choppers, motorcycle rights, bike building, motorcycle culture, and the people who keep this industry moving, this episode is for you.
