  The Honda 3 wheelers. We had 2 of them on the 20 acres growing up at the parents homestead. I still am amazed I survived without crushing an ankle, foot, or breaking a leg.

That brings back fond memories of doing incredible power slides on logging roads  with a Honda 250R.  Grin Grin Grin

Very interesting. The precision and repeatability of the build is incredible.
I worked for a US company that built railroad machinery and I was often at the factory inspecting a customers machine before it was shipped.
The way those machines were fabricated and assembled would drive the BMW engineers and quality control people stark raving mad.
And working on that BMW assembly line would drive me stark raving mad from boredom on the first day. Roll Eyes

Beer is common in cafeterias in Swedish and Finnish mines.  A few years ago I visited a mine in Finland where they had an underground cafeteria with a beer dispenser.  Also had the ability to use your cell phone, which is essentially unheard of in Canadian underground mines.

I put a machine in service in Gothenburg Sweden in the early 1990's. When I checked into the hotel the lady at the desk took my info and told me my room was at the end of the hall on the right. I stood there waiting for my key. She repeated the instructions and I said "Can I have my Key?" She replied 'We don't have keys for the rooms, people don't steal things here". 
That same year I got robbed by a policeman in Guadalajara Mexico. Huh?

For sure!  Since then he's also made a 6 cylinder in line Z1B engine.  He's probably the biggest reason there are no spare cases available in the world!!
