If filing down a thread and putting in a battery is that dramatic for them, then my job as auto mechanic must be a pure action movie.
I've used s thread file a million times in my life and it was never that tense.

The whole point of a thread file is for when your not being careful! 😂 And how can a thread file do anything other then follow the thread straight? Unless your using it as a hammer 😂

To be fair if they messed it up it could have been an absolute nightmare in getting a suitable replacement. That's probably why they were so tense. That's just my opinion though.
I absolutely ADORE the kettenkrad, such an unique vehicle.
"Get the kettle on then".. "What, a cup of tea?" Perfect
7 minutes of heavily scripted and directed footage of a simple battery install..... this is why tv is dead.

me too, but this scripted drama bullshit is totally unnecessary, like making drama from a stupid thread filing WTF?
God this is so dumbed down and scripted.
“ it’s from the battle of Normandy” hope Bruce had some paperwork and hard evidence to prove that when he sold it.
Holy. That is a Seagull manager. Flies in, makes noise, and shits on everything.
wait, so the only things wrong with it were minor damage to the wheel pin, a bit of corrosion on the terminals and a dead battery?

*WHAT A SCRIPTED SHOW. SO IT WAS WORTH 60K NOT RUNNING. PUT A BATTERY IN IT AND ITS WORTH OVER 100K*
Well that’s seven minutes of my life I’ll never get bay
When it's chugging away the dynamo will charge the battery the twin said. No it won't, it's a dynamo not an alternator!
He looks like hez completly outraged and the more he speaks the more out raged he becomes
Some very easy school boy level basic repairs, thread, battery. The kettenkrad happens to look almost new and all the parts happen to be present. Coincidence ??? ;-)
The best and greatest twins mechanics on KZread
So they didn't do anything els, before starting a 70+ year old machine. Right..
Hows the music when he's using a frickin thread file..... May as well put some suspenseful music for when hes looking for a 10mm socket.

Nice to see Rodney from Fools and Horses is still working, didn't realise he had a twin though!
A thread file are you kidding me. Any competent shop is going to have a full selection of dies and taps. 🤨

The wonder of an SdKfz 2. Short for Kettenkraftrad, tracked motorcycle.
"Boiling water dissolves the corrosion" Well thanks for the tip! Might actually use newfound knowledge as a mechanic.
I’ve got a picture of my grandfather standing in a captured Kettenkrad in the Western Desert in North Africa, could be the same one?
That’s a lot of machine for one person.

They're pretty funny....Bruce is going to have us for breakfast.lol. Ol Brucey would be shit outta luck if he lost the twins.
After years of sitting around indoors being neglected. 😂😂 Will the ole girl start up, and running like a top, and be already to enlist within 7:09 minutes? Yes!! Of coarse the Kraftrad starts right up, runs perfectly within a minute, and is ready to enlist.. It's German made.. Awesome video
more one night am I right?
Thank god they were an "electrician"
OMG - missing wheel and battery - serious mechanical problems, yeah, worth made a video where it's not even showing how kette is running, great way for waste my time. *Sory for English

Functional yes! But this Ketten is a Polish replica made 20 years ago! Its a fake vehicle!!

It's daft, isn't it? What should have been a mildlly interesting bit about replacing the battery in a Kett, turns in to some overhyped nonsense, and makes the twins, who are genuinely brilliant engineers in their own rights, become participants in a 3rd rate, day time reality TV show.
Back in real, non TV land... 'Stick a battery on that when you've got 5 minutes lads, punters coming for a look tommorow' 🤣 Why the fake drama, its pathetic

Everything was over exaggerated. These fixes would have taken like 15 minutes or less if they didn't script it to death.
Every time another story. watch?v=qIiHshLeNgE
This shits so corny it's ridiculous like seriously I bet they drove that think in there took the battery out and wheel off and put the shit back together ....

Bullshit. It's Krad, short for Kraftrad.
So basically, they just fitted a wheel and battery, wtf, just wasted 7 minutes of my life ffs
Love the show but hate how it's scripted. Make it more natural.
I mean, I like the vehicle. But damn, they say things with the flattest and deadest voices you can tell its poor acting and not them being, well, them.
How juvenile do you think your viewing audience is? You probably lose many people just a minute or two into your video. I could go on, but I won't.
Not exactly a massive repair job there.
nOT THE MOST INTERESTING PROGRAMME, did not even show us the engine.
So is this 'kattenkrad' a genuine WW2 or one of the thousands of post war ones built for farmers.All the time Bruce craps on I'm thinking please shut up I don't want to hear your BS.I don't think I would trust anything he says,wouldn't even feel confident buying a used wheel barrow from that merchant.
