wow, its so calm, so measured, so precise, so quiet...
Mandello was a shade more chaotic when I was there.
National stereotypes apply, it seems.
we could never do that in england...
here's the meriden triumph factory just before it closed if anyone's interested

Good stuff , thanks guys :)
Oh , those workers at the Meriden plant don't look or sound like a bunch of radical troublemakers that would stage a sit in and then a hostile take over of an English factory ;D

Triumph factory is actually making the parts.
BMW factory is just assembling parts hence so quiet.
and that's not a hammer,nor is it a rubber mallet.
Its a nylon mallet.

To be more specific, it looks like a dead blow mallet with nylon heads from PB Swiss ;D

Good lord, it's no wonder BMWs are so boring, they are conceived in the dull drums.

Ahh winter. The time to discuss the subtle differences between a hammer a rubber mallet and a nylon dead blow. I'll add the sand filled dead blow to the discussion.

The HF bright orange dead blow is remarkably good for about 3 bux. ~; :BEER:

I know it's an oldie but my favourite is this one. How the Triumph Rocket 3 is made.

That BMW video is interesting. Yeah, that place is slightly more sophisticated than what I saw in Mandello del Lario!

Thanks for posting the BMW factory assembly operation. From that I got to see the demise of the Meriden Triumph factory documentary among other brand factory assembly lines on U-tube. 8)

I just watched the 1982 Triumph factory video. That's it, that's it ! That's Mandello! LOL

Maybe the way they operate(never been there). Both are/were union but MG has the backing of Italy Govt. to keep them operating. Probably the only reason they still are.
