Phil Irving, an Australian, designed the engine.

Thanks for video

it gave me immense pleasure, to see Aniket-the maker of royal Enfield V-twin Musket.
I am a big fan of his work. Its proud to see an Indian doing such a great work in The U.S.
Thank you Jay for bringing him on to your show.

Another fantastic episode of Lenos Garage, I want you guys to know that you were heroes to my brother (he passed from cancer 3 weeks ago) he loved talking about how innovative you are and was quite the fabricator also, he was consumed with racing cheap hand built race cars!

He leaves behind a sweet 17 year old girl named Carley that needs a little help https://www.gofundme.com/TigerintheTank?utm_source=internal&utm_medium=email&utm_content=cta_button&utm_campaign=upd_n

Thank you to all motor heads that would care to help

I was stationed in Nova Scotia...

He ruined a Black Shadow

What is a Black Shadow !!!

That's a bit short,got to the best part of starting it and it ended!!!.....:):)

What's up with those short videos? I'm relly starting to dislike them :|

Is it just me or does this bike not look much different than almost everything built in the 80's? The handlebars are lower, that's about it, but personally I prefer slightly higher handlebars.

So, in real terms this bike sold for $189,000 in 1955.

way overpriced

Motorcycle Classics magazine lists the original price as $1800, not $18,000. I had to look that up as it just seemed ridiculous.

How did Jay Leno become rich?

Man that was short. let's see more of it.

Beautiful bike but $125,000

Yeah ok.

Where's the GOGGLES Jay?

MSRP $18,000 ?? must be $1800. A HOUSE in LA in 1955 ranged $4-10k, depending on the area so this was the price of two houses...

IS THAT IT? Apart from the motor the rest of it looks pretty elcheapo, the headlight supports look like they came off a japanese poor man's 200cc cafe racer rat bike to start with.

Great video thanks. :D
Now your Triumph Bonneville bikes please especially the 70 if you got it :D
