You overlooked this important part of the setup:
> A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor
Is that going to happen while the cycle's running?

Heart surgeon vs. mechanic...anybody that has set foot in a repair

apparently the heart surgeon in your fable doesn't realize how stupid
his smug response is...but the mechanic does.
This joke gets funnier every time it's told by someone that doesn't
realize the doctor is the butt of the joke.
Odd thing, it's really not joke from the surgeons point of view...more
of an attempt to establish his social quality, while the mechanic was
looking for intellectual quality. Changes the the intention of the
joke 180 degrees.
Why do you think that joke is funny?

A mechanic was re moving a cylinder head from the motor of a Harley
motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon in his shop.
The surgeon was there, waiting for the service manager to come and
take a look at his bike.
The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hey, Doc, can I ask you a
question?"
The surgeon a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on
the motorcycle. The
mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So
Doc, look at this engine. I
open its heart, take the valves out, fix 'em, put 'em back in, and
when I finish, it works
just like new. So how come I get such a small salary and you get the
really big bucks, when
you and I are doing basically the same work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered to the
mechanic...
"Try doing it with the engine running."
