Idle Hands Chopper Show 2026 at Manchester Harley-Davidson - Photo Dump

The Idle Hands Chopper Show went down Saturday, July 11th at Manchester Harley-Davidson in Hooksett, New Hampshire, and it turned the whole lot into a sea of homebuilt choppers. Presented by the crew behind The Lowlife Podcast, the show was built around one simple idea: give garage builders a real stage and let the bikes do the talking. Choppers only, just raw hand-built machines that got ridden in.

The Lowlife Podcast crew took it to another level too. Through their Patreon and a whole lot of loyal listeners, they raised a $10,000 cash purse and handed the entire thing to the winner of the show. Ten grand, straight to a garage builder. That is grassroots chopper culture doing exactly what it should.

From one-offs to candy-flake Shovels and everything in between, here is a walk through the lineup at Manchester H-D.

Long forks, drag bars, and a candy red paint job. Clay Krick's build pulled a crowd all afternoon.

Wrenches out. Half the fun is the fixing that happens right there in the lot.

The Eazy Co boys and their Knuck that speaks for itself.
