Mac has been one of my best friends for 31 years now! He taught me how to do safety wire! He actually trusted me to safety wire parts on that green/white KZ when he was racing it at Willow Springs! He was just over at my house 2 days ago telling me about you coming out to film the shop. So stoked to see him and Nori getting the recognition they deserve! This is awesome! Truly loved this video!

[@seather863]

Nori and Mac are cool dudes. Amazing motorcycle restoration craftsman!

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

Videos like this are absolutely incredible. I really appreciate seeing this stuff, the motorcycle side of things.

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

Yeah but did u see what he tried doing with Tuttle Sr and Leno??? This Jimmy Neutron guy is a laughing stock. All for views

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery why you watching it then? What did he do with Leno, I seen him tour Lenos collection and I didn't see anything that stood out as wrong, please explain yourself.

Masters at work preserving our heritage. Cheers

82.000 miles on the RC51 !!! Astounding HRC engine, gear driven cams, marveless sound and a genius machine. There are some out there stripped down to 160 kg ... :)

[@robertlowers6001]

Very Good Show👍🇺🇸

[@fknbastages]

These folks turn lead into gold.

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

This channel turns good content into unwatchable videos. All he wants is views and revenue. I've never seen this guy on a bike or doing biker things, same shirt, same lines, ame everything.

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery you sound like a hater, guess he's doing something right. When you start being successful and getting known, you always attract the clowns that will never amount to anything besides chair-arm warriors and experts over the net.

[@MarkFox]

What a great guy, shop & video, thanks for the video Jack!

[@sactown900]

That white Mk2 is awesome

[@SprintMotorcycle]

Come get my 71 R5 350 Yamaha, you can have it. Needs a lot. Bought it in 72, like new, rode it for years.

[@davidnelson6893]

Have seen Honda CB 92.

[@OhLesfire]

I have a 1973 Z1 900 that sat in my grandpa's shed for 35+ years I want to get rid of. Is there a contsct number for these guys?

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

Im still a little sour the way you attempted to get views by starting that online argument between Leno and Tuttle Sr. That was classless

[@tommychewning4202]

Know a guy who has a 2 car garage of Japan bike's fully restored. You can barely walk around in the garage. He's in Manassas Virginia. He owns a pawn shop. He's loaded. P.S I'm a Harley Indian lover 😂.

[@user-uo9cy2ep2h]

I'm sorry
