THANK YOU ALL from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful, encouraging comments! And yes, I did talk too much...it was the excitement of talking to "THE"Jay Leno and trying to compress about 10 yrs into 10 minutes. Thank you for being patient enough to sit through it! With heartfelt gratitude, Aniket

EnlightenedAce The part where he says "Should I push him in the furnace?" had me wondering just how much he was joking. Genius, and insanity/psychosis do often go hand in hand. I think he was being honest at that point. Great guy, just don't screw with his bike.

[@jackhammer5468]

I met this guy on at a bike night in late July. He's just like he is on this video. Humble, smart, funny, open and fun to talk to. I originally just wanted to say hello to him because I'd seen part of this video and he was riding the 750 and the next thing I know almost an hour had gone by and we were the last 2 bikes still there. (mine is restored as original 82 Honda Magna V-45) You don't meet someone every day who made their own engine. I'd love to see him make a living at this but he says to many people that say they are exited to have one fizzle out when it comes time to write the check. He needs a closer.

[@RyanMcIntyre]

First guest to ever dominate the conversation with Jay.

[@rageking3810]

Jay actually seemed very interested in his story

[@RyanMcIntyre]

Yeah he did, and the guy was interesting. I just found it surprising since Jay normally runs the conversation, it was almost weird to see him sit back as someone else took over.

[@jcoulter43]

Ryan McIntyre Just goes to show what a true professional Jay is. Can't wait to see him back on TV doing something with cars and/or bikes. This was one of the most interesting interviews I've heard him do in a long time. Coolest thing, Aniket Vardhan lives in my State about 1 hr away from me! Hope to see his bikes around me out on the street. Beautiful piece of rolling art.

Deep admiration and respect to the man who really did it himself. As much as I appreciate the big name builders and marvel at the engineering I can't think of one that could make such a claim… Thanks to Jay, Abhi and especially Aniket. Kudos to you all.

The part about his two years in mold, being ruined by some fly by night caster just rang home with me... He walked away and regrouped. This magnificent bike is the product of patience... Absolute amazing find Mr. Leno, thank you sir for the tears of life!

[@regsparkes6507]

Aniket is one of the most erudite people I've heard in a long time. He's right up there with Garrison Keillor is his ability to get the story of his work out to us. What a wonderful motorcycle ! Anybody who knows of those great Royal Enfield's and even B.S.A's will be interested in his work too. Those were the 'romantic' days of motorcycling. Aniket is bringing it all back. I, for one am wishing him all the success in this world. Am I impressed,....yeah you might say so. Thanks for this Jay...

[@charlesedenfield8947]

Jay, this was -for me- the very best video of the hundreds that you have made. Not just because of the uniqueness of the subject, but more because you had the wisdom to allow a very talented person to share his story. As you know so well, it is important to "manage" interviews so they are not boring or even too abbreviated. This was done masterfully on your part and especially so by Aniket, who has to be the most articulate designer/craftsman I've ever heard. It doesn't hurt that I have "old English" bikes or that I also have a modern Bullet, but I am most impressed by the manner in which you presented this wonderful story. Gracias

[@DannyWalker1949]

Good Gravy, Jay. You Need to Hire this Man.....there has to be some projects you want to hand build and This Is The Guy to do it, in my mind at least. What a Talented young man.

Screw hiring him - Jay needs to get this guy truckloads of money so he can set up proper industrial facilities. We could have another Great American Motorcycle Manufacturer.

[@Lex-Rex]

The gentleman that Jay is interviewing is a natural as well as a very talented engineer (even though he does not have a piece of paper to prove it), but yet so humble. This has to be one of my favorite videos to date. Oh the bikes are amazing as well.

[@Roadghost88]

I think a lot of people forget that for every great motorcycle manufacturer there is out there, some guy way back spent months in his garage tooling together the first prototype. It takes a remarkable person to do that. Harley, Honda, Indian, Brough Superior, HRD Vincent, they all started with one of these guys who were driven by fascination. Then the accountants get hold of things and...

"Do you think of this as an Indian motorcycle or a British motorcycle?" Well, it can't be British, Jay, look how clean your floor is. :)

[@jenniferanne4143]

It's not a copy of any American bike. He said he was inspired by a Harley he seen, to make a v-twin Royal Enfield, which was an English bike, now made in India. So all in all, I'd say his Royal Enfield is a custom British bike. Although it was custom fabricated and assembled in America, by a guy from India, and India is where modern day Royal Enfield's are made.

I've used all sorts of parts, stock, aftermarket, but I've never cast my own parts and I am truly impressed by the design and form this man has produced. I've probably built a hundred bikes all told, but nothing as unique and singular as this. I've been a mechanic since childhood, machinist beginning in my teens, and have cast many custom parts for machinery, but never completed casting parts for an engine. This is an awe inspiring video, I hope I get to do more before I get out of my sixties. Better hurry! I've long admired Jay Leno's collection, and enjoyed his showing it to all and sundry. Thanks for this very special show.

Cool bike, awesome sound! I'm truly impressed by a man who isn't an engineer, being able to design and build a motor in his spare time. I can still hear the palpable heartbreak in his voice when he related how the original carvings were ruined by the careless casting shop. Many of us wouldn't have handled that as well as he did.

Hi there. Wish I could get some advise from Aniket.V . Like you I also grew up in Chennai dreaming of owning a bullet. Always viewed a bullet and its sound with full of respect. So finally after retirement I bought a bullet, with the neutral finder. Not the new ones. I enjoy each time I ride in town. Another dream was to own a single cylinder bullet with twin exhaust. I saw one in Chennai long time back. May be it was made in UK. Is there a chance I can convert this single single exhaust to a twin exhaust. Regards N N Thomas.

Jay, you've had such a fantastic run on television all while maintaining character and appreciation from the public eye - additionally rewarded with a product of your passion. Thanks for producing "Jay's Garage". I truly enjoy watching.

Thanx Jay for sharing this, Mr. Eswarappa is truly a sweetheart of a humble and talented guy. I've enjoyed Jay Leno's garage, but this episode has to rate as one of the best? It was a wonderful story to share with everyone.
