[SEL] Japanese engine shows

[Peter Lowe]

Hi all

Not sure if Bill San has shown you guys these links before of Japanese engine shows, you can spend hours here.
When it gets hot in Australia we hibernate, in the USA they get cabin fever in winter, have a look at this lot in the snow:

You will get lost in here:

There is no show or glitz at their engine shows, no paint or cleaning, you show as is. Take a look at some of the many videos and look at the smoke from running rich or worn rings.
They wear good clothes and gloves and some of the videos they all have white overalls on.
They place cardboard down to collect the oil, very environmentally friendly ;-)

I correspond with a chap in Japan who owns a 10hp R&V  "R" series Triumph Line engine, as well as a Reid and a nice National and others.
Thank goodness for Google Translator - Japanese to English and visa versa

Have fun or save for a rainy day.
