Starts slow, but give it a bit. Sure wish I could understand Japanese! They start it on stage, and then slowly start to disassemble the bike, bit by bit. Never seen a show with a format like this, but what a treat for a gear head!
About 30 minutes in, a sound engineer graphs out sound samples of the 250cc six cylinder RC166 engine versus a six cylindar CBX engine, a v-twin engine, and then a Formula 1 engine. When he overlays the sound graph, you can see that the RC166 is almost identical to the Formula 1. Pretty amazing technology for 1966.
