Is this any of you?

 I sort of doubt it because he didn't use a hose clamp on the oil filter.

     All I can say is if I worked on things very long wearing all that hardware I would be soon missing fingers and maybe an arm, but I hope he can get away with it.

Well, after all he wasn't working around drill or lathe chucks, milling cutters, etc. My main concern at first was cleanliness, but maybe that parts rack in front of him is scrupulously clean? I'll bet he's ok as an engine builder..

 He couldn't be very good, he didn't put a hose clamp on the oil filter.
 If you back up the video to the start you will see that.
 And he didn't strip any pan bolts either, unless he eliminated that from the video.
 I know from reading this forum that all real Guzzi mechanics do these things.

Didn't listen to it but for all the cynical grumbling he did OK. Note we never saw him sticking the rings in the bore. Nothing about stud o-ring placement or anything like that but his work space was uncluttered, (Better than mine sometimes!) and it wasn't hideously filthy.

The whole torn trousers and Jewelry with lots of 'Thumbs Up' and 'Yo'-ish motions rather detracts from the narrative but otherwise? Stop snapping your suspenders or you'll all have huge myocardial infarction sand then you'll be sorry!

Looked OK to this hillbilly. I liked his timing chain escapades.
