Not a torque wrench in sight, now I know why bits allways fell off.
No wonder the Japs kicked our arses.

You know it's not good when it starts with a hobo walking along a dirt road...

British humour old chap.
Thanks
Great video. I have a '66 Bonneville that came from that factory. Mine still runs great but it took some doing. It would be interesting to see a video of the Honda factory from the same era.
Great video!
... but what about the pistons....

How in the hell did they ever make money being so labour intensive? Id like to see how the factory runs now under John Bloor making the same Bonnie.

Eventually the cost of production using these methods caused the colapse.
I guess from the style of the motorcycles shown that this is from the '50's and is indicative of British industry of the time.
I wonder if the guy who ran the engine test bed suffered any hearing loss.
I don't know how to post youtube properly, maybe someone can
