Fairly Handy Guy....
Allen Millyard.
This guy likes to build bikes that never were. At home. 1400cc 6 cylinder Kawasaki from a pair of KZ’s 1250cc 5 cylinder Two stroke Kawasaki based on the 750 triple. 100cc 2 cylinder Honda based on the 50cc single. 5 liter V twin built with 2 barrels from a radial airplane engine. 1600cc V8 Kawasaki. V12 Kawasaki. Viper V10 in a bike chassis. 374cc 6 cylinder Honda https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uW2YFNDjN_o The above video is of him making the crank for the 6cyl KZ. He’s got dozens of videos. Gotta love YouTube.....

I first read about Allen in the British bike magazines 15 or 20 years ago, he's quite a fabricator. He just recently started his own Youtube channel with info on his motorcycles and other projects. One of the recent videos is about a very cool and unique racing bicycle he designed and built for his son.

I love this kind of stuff!! I have a friend who is a very talented machinist, fabricator, and welder. Not an engine machinist and no Jesse James but he took a Kawasaki KZ 1000 engine and fabbed a ton of nice stuff to put the engine on a Suzuki 250 quad racer frame. My god was that thing lightning. This was 20 years ago, we were 22 years old.
