Lockdown biker films
Posted: Tue Nov 17, 2020 5:36 am
Not even halfway through the tedious lockdown, can't ride and there's nothing on the tv. Up to date with all the workshop jobs and servicing.
I looked for some bike-related films to watch and found these.
A film about an epic argument with the wife. Neither can agree whether a parking drop justifies a full respray:
Scar wars
One man's struggle with the choice of vice- soft jaws? Rubber inserts? Aluminium?
Jaws
An early history of Yamaha manufacturing:
The Piano
The endless search for an unscratched and true front Dymag:
Good wheel hunting
The development of two-stroke exhaust design, and the discovery that reducing the final section diameter produces power gains:
The Sting
A film detailing whether parts from an earlier model will fit your more recent bike or whether something from another brand might be adapted to fit:
Pre-dater Vs Alien
A rider remembers, with the aid of rose-tinted glasses and a bottle of JD, that a bike he had years ago and sold was actually the best bike he's ever owned:
The Perfect Storm
Got any to add?
