@bisquitnspanky 《☆》Wow :*: This video's been out 3 years and I'm just now seeing it :*: It reminds me of the AMC 304 V8 that was in my 77 Jeep CJ7 RENEGADE a torquey little V8🤓☻🤠
Suhweeet!! If it will run with the crankshaft vertical . . . Seriously, i'd love to have an engine like that in a 4 seat hydrofoil for the lakes around here (Phoenix area). 😁👍
Imagine being trapped in a traffic and then you hear this, getting closer. And you're like "wtf? How is this car going if we are not moving?" And then you see this motorcycle passing by 😂
Hello Dennis, you really need to give more information to the public about how you made this. It needs to be recreated by others because the sound is simply out of this world amazing. It has to be shared.
@@Ritalie Provided you have access to the equipment it wouldn't be hard to do. You would have to create the block, heads, intake,crank and cam. Just design it to use off the self parts for the rest. I would just design those parts in a CAD program and get the block and heads made from billet aluminum. You would have some other parts you may have to fab like the valve covers, timing cover and oil pan. The sticker shock is still where most people would stop. No how to do it and doing it are too very different things though.
I just watched it again, I am amazed how cool this motorcycle looks AND sounds, I could ride it ALL day just for the exhaust note. It really is a beautiful work of art with classic old school styling & simplicity. Congratulations on creating this wonderful machine. Couldn't help but notice it makes you smile too Dennis, thanks so much for posting this video.
I would love to own a motorcycle like this one. Everything doesn't have to be a monster to be appreciated. Great job, well done! It's a beautiful piece of moving art. Thanks so much! Semper Fi America 🇺🇸
Dear Ingenious Mr. Franz 👍👌👏 Unbeliiiiievably fantastic. This is still one pf my favourite utube videos of all times. I guess I have already watched it 50 times. Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health.
What an awesome piece. The OG motor cycles that this is modeled after never looked as good,and definitely didn’t sound as badass as this one does!! What an outstanding build..
This thing sounds sweet oh my. God I created for myself a quiet still bike 5 years ago the bike is all black all environmentally friendly I have a Boost bottle nitrous bottle but it's all electric all made by me I've been working on it for five years it could have been completed in 60 days but my dad passed away and it's just a project for me now my fiance just passed away no more than 5 6 days ago and she was with me all the time to buy the parts anything that I didn't fabricate I would go and buy parts if I didn't make them myself I start working on the bike since her passing I'm a work on it again during sometime next year but it's just covered up now and put away it's ready to roll but it's nothing like yours yours is a work of Genius that sound is ultimately amazing it sounds like heaven it sounds like we're out at the racetrack and you're getting ready to drag race against a top fuel car I love it you sir are Americana at its finest I salute you and take my head off
What a work of ART . I hope you win a major top tier trophy for engineering feat. My Dad would've drooled over this if he was still with us i hope he just witnessed it through my eyes. My passion is 2strokes but this ticks all boxes. This is like the 50cc Gp racer back in the 70's with a 26 speed gearbox that got band from competing , an engineering feat. Well done it's GOLD
Denny; another beautiful F.F! My first job was at Fletcher Frame and Axel, he gave away matchbooks that read"WE ARE THE MASTERS." You truly are a MASTER!
I would buy one of these (and on that beautifully classic chassis) over ANY other motorcycle made in America. So has Jay Leno made a bid on it yet? Seems like his bag.
What a smart and talented guy! .... That is the best sounding bike I ever heard, so cool. He should put them into production and make a killing. I'd love to have one, but probably couldn't afford it.
If you ever choose to document and "reverse engineer" this amazing creature, I would gladly put together the models and drawings to be shared/sold whatever you like. Please consider. This is what the motorcycling world is lacking. A light, nimble bike with real character.
This is the best thing I've seen in hundreds of videos on UA-cam. I think people would pay any amount of money to own one of these. I'd drive it every single day because of the sound. It's seriously unreal how amazing it sounds.
Dear JMMJ Productions Me too! I put it on my private playlist instantly after hearing it for the first time. This ingeniuos well done masterpiece is extremely amazing and impressive. Best regards luck and health.
Gosh, this is the first time i see a "model" v8 that works within normal rev gradient. Usually everyone tries to squeeze bhp out of one, which turns it into a coffee-mincer, this thing tho, sounds like a proper coast cruiser, and i totally love it. Have my respects, Sir, you've got a class.
Okay so I know that by saying this that People are going to tell me I'm being absurd. But, I don't really care and I'm "Dead Serious" too ! Anyways that Motorcycle is about the Coolest damn thing I've ever seen ! In fact I'd spend my money towards buying that before buying a damn Harley ! It freaking sounds Amazing when you rev it up. Not only that but you can tell that Motorcycle will $H!T & GET !!! Just look at how Awesome that engine looks. Sir, you've got yourself one Hell of an Amazing Motorcycle right there. Thanks for sharing this with us.
That means it will burn some fuel and go very fast. Heck, it's got Beemer running gear and V-8 power ! How could it not go like STINK !? (that's a euphemistic expression we use so we don't have to say $#!T).
A lovely looking machine!, Looks like a vintage factory build but a real top end product!, and such a compact V8 motor, not even as big as an Indian 4, who wouldn't be proud to own it let alone build it, fantastic.
In Australia Holden made a small V8 it was a 253, this is so much smaller, what capacity is it, did you build the motor. I saw how well the bike slowed down when you backed off the gas, but I still think front brakes need to be fitted. Is the shaft from BMW.
That is an amazing piece of engineering. Classic looking old school bike. What type of V8 engine is it? It looks shaft driven to the rear differential like a bmw bike. How does the engine keep cool? Sounds magnificent. 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 cheers from 🇦🇺..
With displacement scattered out into 8, must be smooth and vibrationless as electric motor! Owned Honda 350 , 4 cyl. Years back, was like a mouse on cotton! Thanks! Love your bike!
Fabulous. It deserves some steady close-up shots and a full description to educate. Certainly sounds wonderful but there's more to the story than the sound. The engine is quite impressive as well as the chassis work.
I wish someone built these for sale to the public, it might not sell to the masses but who cares, it would still sell a few thousand a year. This bike and the Royal Enfield Musket V-Twin really should be made. Set the price south of 20 grand and I will be there for both.
Just a side note Dennis,, its a pity you didnt save the plans for this engine,, i was just pondering how if you did,, you could offer the plans for sale,, i for one would purchase them and try to cast these dimensions in my home aluminium foundry, obviously there would be lots of machining to do later, but what the hell,,, just my thoughts,, still a hell of a machine Dennis.
Ears hear sound, eyes see motorcycle, brain is confused.
Sounds like a full sized v8 too :-P
This comment is gold
Looks like 4 vtwin motors hooked to a custom case to me..... =homemade awesomeness
I had to look it up, said it's 2 Honda 4 cylinders mated together. Cool as hell!
My exact same thought as I watched, except your words expressed it perfectly!
That has to be one of the sweetest
sounding bike ever , a masterpiece .
Agreed !!! 👍
Sounds like an old Ford Flathead. Outstanding!

I thought it sounded like a German engine with motorcycle pipes.
Maybe Italian
BDOG JR л
@@michaelmace924 Italian-Czech built by a German. Jump to 2:45 ua-cam.com/video/gV0oMZqJAyA/v-deo.html
Bikers are into noise. This is motorcycle makes the best noise I have ever heard. It needs to go into production.
Nice! Finally someone did something notable with one of those tiny V8’s.
I think he made this engine himself, he didn't buy one of those 1/4scale functional v8 engines you see for sale online.
Thomas Bordelon good looking bike to boot
Suhweeet!! If it will run with the crankshaft vertical . . .
Seriously, i'd love to have an engine like that in a 4 seat hydrofoil for the lakes around here (Phoenix area). 😁👍
Lovely work, isn't it? 👍
@@mistersunny3636 yeah
I've been into motorcycles for over 40 years. That is one of the best I've seen. Ever. Nice work Mr Franz. 10/10
Obviously it's a cross plane V8 but the tone.. almost sounds like an Alfa 8c Monza or Grand Prix car from the 30's.. Bellissimo!
Thats the most beautiful sounding motorcycle i have ever heard! Bravo! Well done man.
Nothing sounds like a V8, even a little bitty one. Thank you for sharing!
That sound is eargasmic!!!!! Beautiful bike,it looks super torquey.
Tiny V8 but definitely V8
the best bike ive heard
The sound is pure music!
MOST EXACTLY V8 PURE SOUND
Imagine being trapped in a traffic and then you hear this, getting closer.
And you're like "wtf? How is this car going if we are not moving?"
And then you see this motorcycle passing by 😂
Mr Franz you sir are a genius. My hat is off to you.
I am sorry I did not have any plans I just made a few drawings and did not save them, I have a few pics of the build.
did you machine the block and crank?
Dennis Franz If this really is your creation I see no reason why you shouldn’t be working with one of the major motorcycle manufacturers. Nice job!!!
Franz, it can be reengineered easily, with your permission of course.

Too bad if u rode it longer than an hour it would burn ur legs
This bike is one in a million. Wow that tiny V8 is an ear pleaser sounds gutsy. A real super cool looking bike.
This is the best sounding v8 motor bike full stop!
Oh my heavens! That sounds GLORIOUS!!! What craftsmanship!
I would love to own a motorcycle like this one. Everything doesn't have to be a monster to be appreciated. Great job, well done! It's a beautiful piece of moving art. Thanks so much!
Semper Fi America 🇺🇸
Dang! It sounds just like a V8. I would have never guessed.
This is the best sounding V8 I've ever ever heard.
Well that's because it is a V8 DUH!
That is just bad ass. Little antique looking bike then it cranks up and sounds better than all of the crap box fart can cars out on the highway.

That's awesome. Stuff like that is what those guys with the scale v8s should be doing, not just leaving the engine on a running stand.
The Franz Flyer is the most wonderful new American motorcycle since the Boss Hoss
Except that the Boss Hossisn't a real motorcycle - it is a two wheeled truck
;0
@@wingmanjim6 that Flyer is a masterpiece. the b. hog is a crappy, two wheeled cartoon.
Better.
Boss Hoss is the worst possible thing on 2 wheels.
That is Top Tier engineering, i mean really just awesome, sir i would love to sit have a brew and talk to you for hours lol..Congratulations, Super...
Seriously one of the CCOLEST Motorcycles I have ever seen and HEARD. AMAZING BUILD!!!!!!
That bike looks like it could be a factory built. The paint on the tank and fenders as well as the finish of the powertrain look excellent. Well done!
True but imagine how hot the v8 is and it’s just exposed without denim could singe some skin
Man, that thing, looks & sounds just great. Be a cool ride. 😎
I just bet all camaro and muatang be way jelous on that sweet sound like nothing more than a real engine
A fine work of rolling art. Looks great & sounds amazing. Thanks for sharing.
That Sir is an amazing build, hats of!! 😎
How it starts so effortless that's a well sorted motor BEAUTIFUL is all I can say
Supersonic boom! What a splendid ride, a thing of beauty and a joy for ever. I love its look and sound.
i never expected such an amazing sound from a 392CC V8
One of the nicest Motorcycles I have ever seen in my life. It has everything I expect in motorbike.
Sounds better than a Harley! Wow! Did you see the owners smile when he revved it? Lol!
What an awesome piece. The OG motor cycles that this is modeled after never looked as good,and definitely didn’t sound as badass as this one does!!
What an outstanding build..
Wow, just wow, sounds amazing and such a small package.
That engine would also look awesome on a rat rod or t bucket go kart.
Harley wishes their bikes sounded that good. My hats off to you good sir, you are an artist.
What a beautiful piece of work. Amazing! Sounds fantastic too. Big thumbs up to the designer/builder. 10/10
This thing is *WAAAAY* cooler than any motorcycle. I love this thing ❤️

It has a cam! You can hear that immediately! Rumpety rump!😊😊
Absolutely!!
and no back pressure from the exhaust
You realize that all engines "have a cam" too?
@@abo3abid1 not true but I get what you are saying. 2 strokes and rotarys come to mind that don't have cams.
@@abo3abid1 When someone says an engine "has a cam" he's refuring to a high lift performance cam.

Take that bike and show it to Jay Leno your craftsmanship will blow his mind. 100% he will put it on his channel
True
Rob C I agree
This.
Do it!!!
What he said. 100%
Hands down best sounding

undoubtably the most bad ass bike ive ever seen
One classy looking bike. Sounds thrilling too.
Imagine hearing a classic muscle car in the distance and you find out it’s a guy on a bicycle
Imagine hearing a ford but its a grandpa on a scooter XD
So freaking cool !! I can't stop watching this over and over !!

Hello,
That's probably the best homemade cycle out there.
What kind of rims are those/what were they used on?
Thanks,

Brian, the front rim is a 21 inch Honda and the rear is a 21 inch HD. rim
Absolutely stunning!! I can only imagine how many man hours there are in that bike wow, how can 32 people possibly dislike this??
Gary butler 58 dislikes because it isn't a HD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@alberthendershot3134 that is just so sad
That is incredible. Is the engine homemade?
It sure is!
It has to be homemade!!
You can hear it hunting raring to go..lol.

This is so awesome. I didn’t think that engine was big enough to power a bike. But here it is. Sounds awesome. Like an old flat head V8
Sounds fantastic
tHIS MAN FAR BETTER THAN the Harley Engineers that designed their bikes like a running washing machine
Комент на раше тут ))Звук как у газ53 ))), кто помнит как в детстве покупали пачку кисели и ели его надкусывая, ?
Не, я драки в очередях помню.
Very nice build. And the sound!
Cool from A to Z. What does it weigh? Any info on horse power/torque? Motorcycle magazine should definitely do a review.
well I can't find the right word's... this bike combines so many different things I really like....never seen something as cool as that!
