So you guys look really comfortable.
This sets a whole new precedent around here.
Antoine is working harder than you guys.
You know what?
And I'm not even going to get mad at you
because you guys are going to leave on a mission.
I'm all about missions.
What's up?
You guys are driving up to Carson City.
And there's a guy up there with a 1970 650 Tiger Triumph, OK?
Oh, sweet.
Wants 10 grand for it.
I'm sure you can pick it up for at around $8 grand.
As long as it runs good, I want it.
So you know what?
You guys--
Not going to run good.
How do you know it's not going to run good?
Because it's a Triumph.
Don't Triumphs run better than Harleys?
- No. - Yes.
The only reason he likes Triumphs
is because I like Harleys.
No.
I liked Triumphs before you were born.
And I just--
They're backwards, dude.
No, they're just different than American bikes
because the old Triumphs are backwards.
Yeah, they're backwards. So what's the problem?
It's weird.
Well, you just have to get used to doing it.
They're lame.
I'm giving you guys a break when I shouldn't be.
So go to Carson City.
Bring Antoine with you.
If it runs good, just buy it for me, OK?
Even if I ride my Harley?
I don't care what you ride.
Just go up there and get me the motorcycle.
Ready for a road trip, Big Hoss?
I guess so. You want to ride bikes?
- I'm down. - OK, cool.
Let's get out of here.
All right.
Hey, how's it going?
Corey.
Well, the bikes are back in the warehouse.
Let's check them out.
[music playing]
We do motorcycle frames.
We do gas tanks.
We do oil tanks.
We do handlebars.
We got 5,000 different parts we make here in the US.
So pretty much, yeah, if you're building a custom bike,
you're going to at least have a few parts
from these guys on it.
Well, the bikes are back here.
Let me show you.
We've got a couple of nice ones.
I think you're going to really get excited.
This is a 1970 Triumph.
Oh, it's nice, man.
I actually bought this bike in 1999 and sent it to my nephew.
And he restored this bike in three
years from a pallet of parts to exactly as you see it now.
It's actually funny, man.
I have never liked Triumphs, but this is kind
of tickling me a little bit.
[laughter]
I have a 1970 Triumph Trophy 650 for sale.
It's fully restored.
It's really a nice piece.
You don't find them this way very often.
I'd like to get $10,000 for that.
You like this thing?
Don't tell anybody.
[laughs]
But yeah, it's actually really clean.
Your nephew did a really good job.
I mean, it's just like it left the factory floor.
And it runs like a sewing machine.
It's kind of a really fun bike to drive.
Trev, you've got to realize, in the '60s and '70s, these
things, hands down, were just a better
machine than a Harley was.
They were a lot faster.
They were heads and tails above Harley in technology.
But they've kind of gone in and out of business
a bunch of times, right?
Yeah, absolutely.
I believe it was in the '70s--
didn't they run out of stock?
I think you're right.
Which is basically what made a lot of customers
switch to Hondas.
Honda was a big, big player in the mid to late '70s.
10 years ago, you couldn't find a Triumph on the streets.
They're real collectible, absolutely.
We have another one over here.
Well, that Trike is sweet.
It's as fast as it looks, too.
This is what we call our Paco Racetrack.
We built it in 2013 for the show circuit
to attract attention and bring people into our booth
and so forth.
So this one looks like it's meant to go really fast.
It's a five speed with a chain drive
because it's 125 inches, about 140 horsepower.
So this is a pretty special, one-of-a-kind bike.
What do you want for the Trike?
I think it's worth every penny of $40,000.
You couldn't build it for that.
It's a one-of-a-kind piece, and you're not
going to find another one anywhere in the world like it.
OK.
So what are you looking for on the Triumph?
I'd like to get $10,000 for it.
I think it's reasonable.
Well, I guess we've got to ride them.
I'll do the Triumph.
I'm kind of scared of this thing, honestly.
It looks intimidating.
Yeah, you really got to pay attention
when you drive this one.
It's really fast.
Did you guys bring your helmets?
- Yes, we did. - All right.
You want to go grab them?
Grab mine too, please.
Man, you guys are lazy.
Yeah!
[laughs]
[music playing]
These bikes both run great.
And I know my dad really wants to Triumph,
but I'm not sure they meet my motorcycle standards.
So it all depends if Steve wants to lay off the gas
and lower the gap on this price.
Left you in the dust, Big Hoss.
This thing looks intimidating.
And let me tell you what.
It is.
But you feel like a bad ass driving this thing.
It's definitely got a style to it.
What did you think about the Triumph?
You know, I've never ridden a British bike before.
It feels like I'm driving on the wrong side of the street.
Well, I'm telling you right now,
we got to get this thing right here.
We're going to be dumb if we don't pull back up
to the shop with this bad boy.
This bike, we'd like to get 40,000.
I'm really liking it.
But that being said, I think we are going
to end up passing on the Trike.
It seems like you guys just got a little bit
too much money in it.
And it's just going to be a hard sell at the shop.
But what can we really do on the Triumph?
We'd like to get $10,000.
Would you take $6,000?
No.
I think it's a legit $10, $11,000 bike.
I'll do $8,000.
I can go to $7,000.
You got to remember, I buy these to make money on them, too.
It's getting up into 8 and 9 grand,
there's not much there for me to make.
- $7,500. - $7,000.
That's the best I could do.
- We'll have to pass. - Have to pass?
OK. $7,500 is--
$7,500-- your dad's going to be mad if you don't come
back with that for over $500.
Even Antoine knows that.
That's right.
$7,200.
[music playing]
I think I'm going to hold at $7,500.
Maybe next time, my man.
I'll be around. - Thank you, sir.
I appreciate it.
Hey, thanks for the ride, man.
No, my pleasure.
Back to the two wheels, I guess.
All right.
Corey, over $300?
Your dad's going to be pissed.
What's up, Pop?
What's up?
You guys get my motorcycle?
No.
What happened?
Corey wouldn't buy it over $300.
The guy was at $7,500, and Corey was stuck at $7,200.
Wait, wait, wait.
What did I tell you guys to do?
Rick, I told him, buy the bike.
Your dad's going to be pissed at you.
The bike was in perfect condition.
You tattletales, man.
Honestly, no.
Dude, the deal wasn't right.
I didn't tell you to buy it because it was worth it or not.
I told you to buy it for me.
There was no money to be made it on the bike.
I did you a favor.
No, son.
I wanted the bike for myself because what do I ride, guys?
Triumphs.
So I basically paid for you guys to have a vacation.
Not you guys.
I argued to bring the bike home, Rick.
I really did.
Your son--
--Corey.
Decided not to buy the bike over $300.
You know what?
This is all my fault. I should have never sent you guys.
Thanks a lot, Cor.
Rick.
Really, you could send me on another trip.
I promise.
