Welcome to The 1DOWN Podcast. Bringing good people together to share good conversations. "I can show you better than I can tell you". 1DOWN celebrating 30 years strong!
The 1DOWN MOTORCYCLE CLUB VAN. This van was dedicated to my motorcycle club. The van was our chase vehicle. The inside was a passenger van and I think it sat up to 13 people. The van would provide transportation to those that wanted to participate, support, and enjoy a Sunday Funday with us if they were having transportation issues.
This was my very first van I ever owned. I purchased this van when it was totally busted and I gave it a complete make over from head to toe. This was was dedicated to the Adult Entertainment side of my business. The inside was like a blacked out van limo with captain chairs and a bench couch that folded down into a bed!
The 1DOWN BIKER SUPPLY HOUSE VAN. Nissan NV3500. Fully built out with motorcycle loading ramp. This van was dedicated to my motorcycle shop but I didn't use it for customer bikes. It was on used to transport my personal bikes. I used it a lot duirng the filming of Sons of Anarchy when I had to tow and trailer my bikes to be used on the tv show.
It's been 30 years for me standing strong every day breathing life into 1DOWN. I what I do cause it makes me happy. I pay no mind to what others do nor how they do it. I wanna say Thank you to all of those that have continued to support me over the years. Thank you to each and every one of you that pray for me and send me well wishes. My name is GOLDIE DEWITT Owner and Founder of 1DOWN.
This is my 2014 BMW GS1200. This was my very first Adventure motorcycle. This was truly THE GAME CHANGER. When I got this motorcycle it was the beginning of a 10 year journey of me walking away from Harley Davidson with the intention of never returning, but little did I know, I would be back. I say this now, and I say it with pride, if I had to choose to live my life with only 1 motorcycle, it would be an Adventure motorcycle either BMW or DUCATI, most likely a DUCATI Adventure.
This is where it all began. My first step into the motorcycle world. It was back in 1992, I decided to get myself a motorcycle and I didn't even know how to ride one. I found the one I wanted. I rented a U-Hual and I went to pick it up. My High School buddy at the time went with me. He knew how to ride, so I figured he'd teach me the ropes and help me load it and unload it from the U-Haul. We got the bike back to my apartment and he gave me all the instructions I needed to hear and just like that, I was riding up and down the street with no hemet. The California Helmet law went in to effect in 1992 but people were still riding without one for a short bit. This motorcycle was a 1989 Suzuki 750 GSXR. It was the big boy back then. The next step up was the GSXR 1000. Now that was the beast! Back then, people would put the 1000 motor into the 750 bike to be slick! I think I kept it for less than a year. What happened was something I could not refuse. One day I rode my motorcycle to school when I was attending Chaffey College, and a asian kid in a Red Porsche 944 rolls up next to me while I was parking my motorcycle. He gets out of his car and he says, "Hey, mom parents bought me this Porsche but I want a motorcycle, do you wanna trade"? Of course I thought he was kidding, but he was 100% serious! I said, do you have the pink slip? He said yes. He then asked me if I had the pink slip to my motorcycle, and I said yes. He said, OK i will meet you back here tomorrow morning at this same time. I said, okay! Next morning I couldn't get there quick enough! I got there he was sitting in the Porsche waiting for me. He told me he DID NOT KNOW HOW TO RIDE A MOTORCYCLE! I didn't give 2 shits! I was only focused on getting the keys and pink slip to that Porsche. He asked me could I teach him to ride. I gave him the same instructions my buddy gave me and just like that, he rode off into the parking lot and I jammed up out of there in my new Porsche! We never crossed paths again. 100% TRUE STORY! - Goldie DeWitt
This is my 2014 Harley Davidson Fat Bob Dyna. I named this one FAT AZZ BOB. This Dyna was filled with premium parts and of course a 120R motor with some upgrades! of course my signature D&D exhaust, custom suspension, Lyndall brakes, corbin seat, 16 inch T bars, and a few other extras. When it came to the Dyna game, I was the absolute King. Exactly why I became known as The Dyna King!!! - Goldie DeWitt
Well, this is my very first Harley-Davidson motorcycle. It's a 2007 Harley Davidson Softail Deluxe. I got it brand new from Pomona HD. I named this one BLAXICAN. I felt it was the perfect name for this unique concept. I had no idea certain people had a certain look within the motorcycle culture. Me being black growing up around mostly Hispanics, I found myself being attracted to more of the hispanic type of Harley look. So I ended up giving my 1st Harley a look that mixed in some hispanic swag along with my black twist and boom, I created The Blaxican! My black friends were like "what the fuck is that? They said Thats a Mexican bike!" I was a bit offended but i quickly learned Blacks have a style, Hispanics have a style, and White folks have their style. So, quickly I had to figure out how do I flip this into a Black mans bike and BINGO, the idea hit me. I would turn my Softail into a full bagger! Stay tuned, I will show you the complete overhaul I did converting my Softail Deluxe into a Softail Bagger!
I named this one "FLAMED UP". The name says it all to those that know. I am a firm believer that a man's motorcycle is an extension of the owner. I've always wanted each one of my motorcycles to have it's own unique look that people would know without a doubt that was my bike even if they didn't see me get off of it. People would walk up and say with complete confidence, "That has to be Goldie's bike".
This Harley Davidson Dyna was filled with all premium top notch parts from head to toe, with a aggressive motor to back it all up! Performance Machine parts smothered this Dyna. The paint job was stunning!
This was my first "from the frame build". I was heavy into the Dyna world, but then 1 of my "white friends" said you gotta get a FXR. I was like "what the fuck is that"? He said "that's the bike the White Guys absolutly love and I feel that you would do a dope ass FXR". He told me it was the model right before the Dyna came out. He also told me to get my hands on a Chopper Guys Frame. So, took he advice and I started my project. I searched everywhere and ended up finding a Chopper Guys frame "UP NORTH" where them OTHER GUYS are and to be honest I think I bought it from one of them. So, after I got my frame it was then time to start laying out my design. I did a super heavy gold flake paint job, with a 120R Harley Davidson Race Motor, a custom inverted gas tank done by: T-Rod, D&D exhaust, lots of chrome, PM everything and lots more. This bike was a rocket!! This bike was also featured on the hit tv show "Sons of Anarchy". Thank you for your continued support. Ny be sure to SUBSCRIBE to my Youtube channel. -Goldie DeWitt
