#101 Daniel from Proper Baggers | Top Ten List

Joe and i sat down with Daniel from Proper Baggers after he released his top 10 performance bagger list. As it always does the Instagram world had its opinion, so we got a chance to break this down and give our 2 cents on some of the bikes. Some of these bikes don't get ridden and that was discussed. The performance bagger scene has changed since its early days, and we got down to some brass tax about what it is today.
