Allen Millyard has a series of motorcycle builds on youtube that are incredible. He cuts and welds engine blocks, cylinder banks, and heads to create 6 cylinder bikes out of 4 cylinders.

The playlist for this particular build may not be well laid out or is in progress at this time, but the series is incredible. The first one I've found is building the crankshaft. What an amazing mechanic and engineer.

He has other builds I haven't seen that look very interesting, including a Viper V10 bike.

The first motorcycle I really liked was a Kawasaki Z1R. In the light blue. Loved that bike.

Awesome craftsmanship, but why not just buy a KZ1300?

I didn't own one, was only 9 when it came out. Just really loved the look of the bike.

I remember when the Honda CBX hit the stores. It was such a big change we all just had to go and have a look. On the basic model that freaking engine looked like it was 2 lanes wide and 6, count them, 6 shiny chrome plated exhaust tubes all in a line.


I've stopped counting.
