One man has been collecting like crazy for a long time…
Barn Find Hunter’s Tom Cotter usually tracks down collections of old cars but generally has stayed away from motorcycles, at least on the web series. The latest episode is a huge departure from that as the barn find sleuth tracks down an absolutely humongous collection of barn find motorcycles which is guaranteed to leave you impressed.
Check out the Harley-Davidson designed to be driven from the sidecar here.
This episode is actually connected to Barn Find Hunter Episode 20, where Tom met a guy named Steve in rural South Carolina. The man had a barn just stuffed with classic cars and thousands of motorcycles. When the episode aired back in October of 2017, there wasn’t time to explore all the wonderful two-wheeled vehicles stashed away. However, Cotter says viewers have been chomping at the bit since then to get a tour of that massive collection.
So, we get to see Tom make the journey back to South Carolina and get a better taste for all the wonderful vintage motorcycles Steve has stashed in his garage.
Right off the bat, we see a whole lineup of Honda motorcycles from back when they absolutely blindsided Harley-Davidson in the 60s. Many of the bikes look absolutely amazing, other than being a little dirty from sitting in the barn for so long. But as Steve points out, at least one of them has well under 1,000 original miles on it, so that’s why they’re wonderfully preserved.
