You can tell the guy is retired. 1220 hours into making it. :)

Very cool though.

That's a $12,000 engine if he made a modest $10/h.

That detailed of machining he would make at least 40/hr in the real world if he was working for someone. But none of us ever do anything like that for the money.

I could see myself doing something like that in retirement, but more like a V-twin.

Yamaha_George - have we got a project for you! Get a mini FZR motor going. How cool would that be.
