    I've been working on getting 2 old Honda CB550s running (nearly got 1 there), one of them had the threads for the drain plug on the oil pan stripped out. I managed to make a mess of drilling the hole out and tapping it to M14. It astounds me how you're able to just hack these engines apart and weld them together again like it's no big deal. You're an incredibly talented fellow!

    I had an S3 . Pop had a motorcycle shop . We all rode , and it was in the 70s and it was the Florida keys in Marathon.
    My father was injured by a drunk and he could barely walk. So I got to test ride most of the bikes with my brother being at school.
    I may be a tad prejudiced but I feel the S3 was the best looking jugs and heads being square/rectangular, vs all the others being rounded.
    We had a customer that wanted more power, and we put 400 jugs on an S1 , no milling machine so lots of die grinding. Ran great and we and the customer were well pleased! I really wish I could go back and hide a bunch of old bikes .
    We had a customer, part time help , Lucky, he had a Vincent Black Shadow.

    Absolutely fantastic, I was rooted to the spot the entire video. A great privilege to watch a grand master at his work.

    I was just looking for something to watch on UA-cam, and I look up and there's a new Allen Millyard video. I settle back and watch it and it's perfect. I'm well pleased with that!

    A hacksaw... mind-blowing how hand tools in this man's hands can create such a beautiful machine. I can't manage to cut more than a couple of inches straight with a hacksaw. My blade wanders all around.

    Quite a fascinating process that you use here, Allen, to manufacture a complete set of crankcases for the 4 cylinder engine!
    As always, thank you very much for sharing the detailed yet simple process of adding an extra cylinder(s)to an engine!
    Cheers to you!😎👍🍺

    I am always blown away by your knowledge, skills and abilities to do fabrication in "your shed" to such high standards. Will be following this build with great interest. As always Tracey fuels the build with her wonderful cooking.

    Thank you Allen, and to see the BBQ getting top billing over Mrs. M, steady on old boy.
    Looking forward to seeing the next installment.

    I've been waiting patiently for another video from You Allen, and You didn't disappoint!! I love the Triple Cyl. Two Cycle Engines, but they sound more evenly balanced and more ferocious with 4 cylinders. I can't wait to see more of THIS build. Thanks and good on You mate!!

    Thank you for another fantastic episode! From one who cannot even cut 1 mm deep straight, grasping how you make these big, straight cuts is beyond my imagination. More than admirable skills! Another thing I have noticed is that you do not seem particular about slackening things like clutch spring retaining bolts off in a crisscross manner - always thought this was important?
