I love factory tours. Great video.
Love seeing stuff like this
One of the best videos you guys ever made. More videos like this. Very interesting, loved it.
Very Cool how they just let you do your thing.
Most of the train cars shown at the end, if any of you are wondering, are "R211A"-class New York City Subway cars, a fleet of roughly 1,500 brand new train cars.
There is also one "M9"-class Long Island Rail Road car in the corner at the 27 minute mark.
Apparently, we weren't supposed to see some things in the railcar production area.
Great video Alex. Really interesting how many machines/components are made under one roof. Thanks!
This is great. I love the factory tour videos and most are 5 minutes long! Thanks TFL!
Okay cool video with great information and narration. The wheel process is very cool.
Man, I love production factory videos like this. I've seen ones for Kenworth, Pierce, and school buses as well. I love to see assembly line production that still has a large human element. So cool. Also makes me kinda proud to work in transportation, helping bring in the raw materials for these facilities. Plastic pellets, steel stock, gasoline, chemicals, tooling, it's all stuff I help transport on the railroad.
Great job Alex. Love factory tours. Head over to Morton and see how the barn was built.
Kawasaki powersports is a small part of Kawasaki Heavy Industries. Helicopters and maybe ships. Kind of like Hyundai. It looks like the motorcycle factory in Japan. The new car factories I've seen look brighter inside and may use green technology for water and power.
So cool to see how those Mules roll down the line. I worked several years at a dealership, so I always saw how they came tobtge dealer in the crate. So much going on in that place.
My dad would not ever let me have a Kawasaki dirt bike when I was a kid. He got captured on Corregidor in the Philippians in 1942 and was sent to Japan as a POW for the entire war. He was put in the POW camp Kawasaki 2B, and was forced to work in the Mitsubishi factory.
Poor guy, that sucks. He clearly made a life after that, so that’s a huge blessing.
Ditto for Mitsubishi. They made the Zero airplanes that enabled the kamikaze suicide strikes against the American troops.
You tell that story and then the American government started using Kawasaki motorcycles at a time... Sad the way this world works. God bless your family and F Kawasaki!!
Driven by that facility many times cool to see the inside of it. Welcome to Lincoln. Humm with omaha PUSHING a new railcar system for downtown I wonder if they will come from there.
I've always been a fan of Team Green🤙
Fantastic.
Work is being done on the new R211 subway cars.
Amazing video. Thanks TFL Off Road and Alex for sharing this Kawasaki factory tour with us. Well explained too !!!
A+++
Agreed! Awesome in-depth look at the manufacturing process! My mind was blown seeing how they apply the decals to the vehicle!
Great video! I honestly didn't plan on watching it but when view another one from TFL it was suggested. I am glad I gave it a chance as it was a fantastic video with great behind the scenes info and footage that wouldn't have been seen elsewhere
Great video Alex! Nice work!
I toured that Kawi plant back in 2004, seems it has had added a lot of automation since back then.
Looks like their museum/plant history room is getting really packed now days, they have really added a lot of products over the years.
Thanks again for another great video .
That kfx450! Man id love to have a new one of those
I can't wait to see the 2024 Ridge model.
It's so cool that they employ all of those moms.
This was awesome guys thanks for making it!
👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🙏 ALEX, AMAZING JOB 👏👏👏 HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE
Very cool.
Interesting that they didn't have a Brute Force model in their history showcase.
Thanks, enjoyed the video.
Damn, didn't even skip a beat and passed right by that Tecate 3 in the showroom....
Very cool. When I was briefly in the UAW, I worked in a place somewhat like this. We were much more narrowly focused though, we really only made one type of component. I liked it so much that I quit to finish my degree and changed careers lol.
good stuff
awesome..... love it!
Good old lean manufacturing 😁
They’re making barely half of the units they plan, this is some insight into the delays and shortages.
12:30 look at the "shortages"
^ brain cell shortage above me
@@mattbrew11 you pointed to your own name....🤣🤣🤣🤣
25:20 If I’m seeing things correctly, one of the cars is an R211S bound for Staten Island!
Insane!
How do they bleed the brakes in auto and off road vehicles going down the line?
Alex
You should really get a job in steel manufacturing ; I have dealt with the kind of machinery most of my life.
25:19 Is that subway car next to R211A 4088 an R211S?
Very kool
You didn’t happen to see any 850 or 1000cc Brute Force test mules kicking around in there did ya? 😩
25:32 R211A subway cars!!!!!!!!
Holy crap, they make rail cars as well!
Technically, rail cars/train are called rolling stocks.
They’re also called rail cars. Fun fact.
If there was any question about how to break in a belt? just watch the guy in the factory Jam that throttle full open.😂
“Arange”
Now I know why my dealer never has anything in stock, they're hoarding them at the factory!!
Really Loud, but it’s background. The mic is picking your voice nicely. No need to yell.
😱
Kawasaki hires lots of moms. They work part-time, between school drop-off and pick-up.
Automated racking systems have been around for decades. They have been in and out of favor.
this the start of the start line where it starts
