I like the bit where they stamp out the crankshaft from an ingot.

Thats wonderful, I really enjoyed that. My dad had a GSXR 750 WN (1992 model) which I think was that one they showed being made in the video.

I loved that bike, I once caught the speedo needle by "150" as I peered over my dads shoulder. He'll never ever admit to going that fast with me on the back though.

Nice. Love the video.

That does indeed appear to be the water cooled one with cradle frame. Wonder why they did it? 15kg heavier than the oil-boilers :-P
