For those that could never possess that skill, I have to say that that's a gift.  I didn't know R.E. was made in India.

I never appreciated pin striping when I was younger till I saw videos on how it was all done by hand

Pretty awesome video  [thumbsup]

He makes it look so easy, like he was born to do it.  Kind of like Ted Williams swinging the bat, M.J. going in for a dunk, or Rossi in a high speed lean.  The good ones always make it look smooth and clean.

They're awesome. They managed to get the Brit bike oil letting process just right and enhanced it with even more smoke purging systems.

im just amazed they could get the power of a peugeot moped while still maintaining the weight of a harley dyna glide!

Wow! Hands of a skilled surgeon and nerves of steel! [thumbsup] Doing it right all the while the guy in the background never stopped yacking for the whole 3:20 video! [bang] Skilled work like that in India probably goes for $5.00 a day! [roll]

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...
