I love this guy's videos! Easy to understand when he starts saying "turny-thing" and "floppy-do" 😆

His channel has been around for a long time, and it's always been excellent. Back around 2012 or so, he did a series about programming muscle memory, where he built a reverse steering bike (turn left, go right and vice versa) and taught himself to ride it. The next year, I got to see him give a talk at a conference, and rode the bike in the parking lot, after. Out of 20 of us who attempted to ride it, no one made it more than a few yards haha.

Good video, thanks. It’s amazing to think how this stuff was developed around the early 20th century and before. My Grandfather was born in 1901 and went from the farm to being a mechanic. He tuned bootleggers cars around Minneapolis for awhile. The Dad in the video reminded of him and the grasp of how things unseen work and the principles behind them make me think of how long ago they developed this stuff buy theory and experimentation.  In the video  I was hoping they would show it at WOT but without a governor it would be troublesome . Watching the fuel in the bowl gave me a new appreciation for the spring in the Dellorto needle valve.
