Check out this week's feature focusing on the David Mann Chopper Fest here.

In this episode, Truth interviews Walter from Kickstart Cycle, Cheap Thrills Show, and the Gypsy Run. The two discuss Walter's background in music (Walter was road crew for Anthrax, Alice in Chains, Bon Jovi, John Cougar, etc.), motorcycles and the motorcycle industry, the realities of running a motorcycle shop, motorcycle events, being on COVID lockdown, and more! Be sure to listen after the sponsor shout outs Truth and Walter got into even more motorcycle tech talk!

"Hey, everyone, unfortunately, we had to change the date of BF 12. There's just too much uncertainty in June and with the current global situation, we honestly had no choice but to make this difficult decision today. If the event was even possible in June and that's a big if....we would not have been able to give you all the show you deserve and expect from us and everyone involved. We completely understand this new date (September 26/27 ) could be an issue for some, but we sincerely hope you can understand what we are all up against. This is uncharted waters for every person on this planet. We want to make sure we provide the best event possible in the safest conditions possible. We are working with all the local agencies to stay on top of any issues that may come up. We will know more in the coming weeks and let you all know as soon as possible. We thank you all in advance for all your support and your patience. We promise we will get through this, have a killer show and honor all commitments. Be sure to follow @bornfreeshow for updates. We'll see you in September." - Mike and Grant

Conceived by S&S founder and brought to market by his son George B Smith, the Classic Two Throat carb and matched air cleaner served as a performance milestone in the v-twin space for over a decade. Now long gone, they are still a hot commodity for in-the-know chopper builders. Inspired by the unique style of their Two Throat intake, S&S has created the new Tribute air cleaner cover and wrapped it around their contemporary Stealth filter system. The forward facing scoop shape provides a distinct air flow advantage and we've always loved the look of this air cleaner, so bringing it back needed to happen!
S&S has a Stealth style air filter kit for most HD models and the Tribute cover bolts nicely to all of them (available as a complete kit or cover only) in chrome or gloss black.
The performance advantage is significant (up to 6hp on the M8 platform!) and most of the late model kits are CARB legal and warranty friendly.
Check them out on their site or contact your local dealer here.

"It's very depressing to be making this announcement, but State and County officials have officially shut us down for The Hanford Cycle Swap and Show. Anyone that has already purchased a spot for the 52nd Hanford Swap will be receiving a full refund soon. These shutdowns are hitting us pretty hard (like they are everyone else), so please be patient. Contact us if you have any questions or concerns." - Otto and Hater
