sorry for the back to back posting but that happens.
this video reminded me of seeing the above KTM. Although, the video was so much more about the principles of working with your hands and mind than the product rendered. the BMW was far more punk.
great find and thanks for the share.
Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, the documentary. Balls.
I’ve still got my seriously dogeared copy of Zen & the art of MM.
However a recent book that I’ve read is better in many ways:
Touches on a few of the themes that the gentleman expressed in the video.
Fuckin’ beautiful!
…apocalypse punk opposed flat twin – very interesting…
…love the brass acetylene torch body used as a twist grip throttle…
…wonder if jack has a “full race decal set” for it ???…
…nahhh, prob’ly not…
Less motor, more bike plz.

ok
That made my morning.
I remember in high-school I rebuilt a Puch moped. Go ahead and laugh. When I was done it did 50 mph and looked like a cafe racer. When I redid the wiring I ended up taking 33 feet of wiring off the bike. I was amazed. Thirty three feet of unnecessary wire. The bike was also 20 lbs lighter when I was done. It was stolen, still miss that thing.
A toast, to all who hang out in their shop and mess around.
Apocalypse punk. Awesome.
Nice..thx for the share.
Cool. I woke up to machine gun firein Merida, Venezuela ahead of the Venezuelan elections.
