Wow, truly awesome video. Great job.

Thanks Tom!

A mate posted this on our bike forum here in the UK, thought it was going to be some boring crap..but that was a classic video, well done to the pair of you...my dad gave me a 1993 Triumph Thunderbird as my first road bike when I was 19, and to do something like this for him would be awesome.

Great work guys, your Dad must be very proud of you, and your mum.

This really deserves more publicity. Throw it up on youtube too!
Very well done!

Nice Job!!

Out of all the dross on the net you once in a blue moon come across a simple yet stunning video with that magical feel good factor.

Wonder how many people call their mum an dad after watching this ;-)

Hey thanks so much!

This is just perfect. I'm so glad you not only did this for your father/family but also documented the entire process as well.

Very well done!

Wish I had a father so I could do something like that to him.
Damn, this made me cry so bad.

What a great way to honor your father! He's a lucky man to have sons such as you two.

I love, love, love this! I've already shared it with 4 motorcycle friends. We watched it at home, and at the end there was not a dry eye in the house. Everyone fantasizes about doing this for a parent, but you guys did it. Kudos! I agree, it must be on YouTube. Also, classicbikeexperience should have done it for free for all the great, free publicity they have gotten!

fantastic video!

..you guys are the greatest! Norton and Old Guys Rule!!!

Thanks guys. Your mom and dad raised a couple of good kids. Thanks for the tears and the smiles and the inspiration. Cheers.

Thanks for sharing this video with the rest of us, fantastic idea and a great result. Awesome.

Really great stuff man. Your Dad looked so happy.

Hey guys,

vimeo.com/11285536

When my dad was young (early 60s) he rode a Zündapp Scooter but sold it. When I was restoring my old Vespa, I found an add of a scooter like he rod. Unfortunately in bits and pieces. So...I bought, within four months (and with the help of my brothers & sisters) we brought it back to life, on the street & gave it do my dad as a present for his 72nd birthday.

Different cast - but the same story. Unfortunately: my video is much less professional as yours :)

- the expression on my dad´s face is the same. Especially, when realising that this is no joke - and he can ride 'his' scooter (from the time of his youth) again.

Well done, brothers!

great job, all together!!!

Thanks sooooooo much! We are super please at the response this video has been getting. Thanks!

That was so awesome! seriously teared a bit. So good.

Great video! Technically, musically, emotionally excellent. I just hope my kids steal even one of my unfinished projects someday....

Yeah, me too. Well done.

Kick ASS!!!

Hey Jeff! It's Mike from LensProToGo, I'm browsing Reddit and watching this video and I'm like wow, that guy looks really familiar. What a cool project & seriously touching video. What a fantastic gift. I'd love to do the same thing for my dad, he had a '69 Plymouth Road Runner, with the same sentimental attachment. 75k views today and counting. Gotta love the internet. Keep up the good work!

Mike

Excellent!

Great film!

Love this!!

so incredible.. cheers to you & your family!

Made me tear. Beautiful work.

It was so touching, best xmas present ever.
good job guys :)

OK, put the onions away now... sniff, sniff.

Great work guys!!!!

My father has a 55 ford that has set in the garage since I was born. He raced it in S California when he was a kid. I have wanted to do something like this for him since I left the army. Thanks for the motivation guys. Great job all around!

Nice movie, great bike and a beautiful story! Well done guys!

amazing :)

Oh guys this is awesome, I love it so much !!!
What a gift, what a lovely story.
