Born-Free 10 is here, which means the best builders from around the world have ridden, shipped, or trailered their bikes to be exhibited at the show here in Southern California. As the name suggests, Born-Free is in its 10th year, and what started as a relatively small chopper and vintage motorcycle show has grown into one of the biggest shows in the US, bringing riders and enthusiasts in the thousands. All year, customizers will build their bikes to be displayed at this show, and many go on to Mooneyes Yokohama and other shows afterward—debuting here first.

From immaculately restored vintage bikes to far-out ’70s choppers to more modern performance builds, there’s something for everybody at Born-Free.
