How Triumph build their bikes: for laughs and for real
An oldie but a goodie; Triumph reminds us not to take biking too seriously with a hilarious video on how the outrageous Rocket 3 is built. However many times I watch it, it stays just as funny.
On a more serious note, superbike.co.uk have put together a truly excellent video that documents the *actual* Hinckley production process that brings the Daytona 675 into the world - from the raw steel that the crankshafts are cut from, right up to the final, crated product. The process takes around 4 1/2 hours of factory time, spread over about 120 different specialty workers. Watch the video after the jump - and by the end of it, you’ll be able to speak Scottish!
