1957 Triumph factory tour video
« on: December 18, 2010, 06:26:08 PM »
This may be really off-topic, but here is a link to a 30-minute tour of the Triumph motorcycle factory in 1957 showing how their motorcycles were built at that time. You will find that things have changed a lot since then. There is quite a contrast between how they assembled motorcycles in a modern motorcycle factory at that time and how Brammo does it in their factory today.   :)

Maybe. But I find it curious that when I called Brammo and was placed on hold I heard the same music playing on the phone that is playing in the video.........
