Excellent production.  Almost looks like you had a rehearsal, it went so well.  You seem to have thought of everything- I was a bit worried about the glue that was pushed to the end, whether it would stick the throttle, but you cleaned it out at the throttle end.

I love silent movies with subtitles.  Don't have to miss a thing!   :)

And I fully approve of your hair stylist's work.   :grin
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Yes the longest part of production was the setting up of tripod and yelling action.   If my make up trailer was closer id have saved some time too .. :p

I was going to include a soundtrack but the youtube Nazi's pull copyrighted material faster than a bar maid pulls a beer.

Ditto

I replaced my grips a few years back and they never seemed that difficult to remove. I cleaned off the bar ends and just used soapy water to slide the new grips back on. They haven't moved since.

The $5.99 ones are lacking quality and heat.  Im looking to upgrade,  at least the wiring has been done.. . :grin

Oxford grips, amazing.  no blue fingers, and comfy.

I see they are still on eBay from who I bought them off. Highly recommended.
