Airhead production line video

Brilliant. I love this sort of old stuff. The way the woman paints the pin striping by hand....amazing
 
There is an english language version around somewhere on the net. Or at least there was a couple of years or so ago......
 
Interesting how much appeared to be built ‘in house’ and that non of the workers have corporate clothing. Right at the end the bike being ridden on the rolling road has red mudguards but a blue tank.
Thanks for sharing.

Indeed, you can almost hear Frauline der Tunner saying "zer ist no stickers, it's all paint"...

I also like to see such widespread use of the hammer - a lost art!

Thanks for posting that.
 
Nice to see the special tools / process's designed to make things easy being ignored.

Fork oil fill & gearbox fill being prime examples

The zorsts arnt made in house any more afaik - chrome plating is left to the specialists these days
 
Thanks that was enjoyable. The lady lacing wheels may have known they were going to shoot the movie that day because she was really dressed up. :D. The lady hand striping the tanks was unbelievable! Completely free hand too.
