What an absolute madman! And I say that in the best way possible! Absolutely everything, from your design concept, to planning and even mold-making, the stunning machine work, and then onto the bits and bobs that make such a stellar engine! The frame geometry, and then the crafting of a frame! Allen, you’re such a joy to watch, and to listen to. You’ve rolled all of these well honed disciplines into such a beautiful creations, I am in awe of your ability! I’ve never built a bike from scratch, but have years of riding and tinkering. Lots of tinkering after I fell in love with my Triumph and Norton. But it was all a 250,000+ mile, and years or tinkering pleasure! It saddens me that I can no longer ride, but watching you create these masterpieces brings back so many beautiful memories. Thanks for the ride in your time machine!
When you pulled back up in the garden and let it idle for a second or two I can only imagine what it must feel like to have built something so wonderful! Lovely video as always
Allen you are nothing short of a genius. thank you for taking the time to shoot , edit, narrate and post these wonderful videos. Oh, and your camera assistant does a fine job too.

The 12 cylinnder is on display at Barbers Motorcycle Museum outside Birmingham Alabama largest collection of motorcycles in the world also racetrack there awesome facility. DantheMan
Jay Leno, whom overall I like, ain't got shit on this cat! Jay BUYS his stuff, and I'll agree, he does have probably the overall coolest big boy toy collection ever. This guy BUILDS his toys, and from what? The most awesome engine to ever be bolted on an aircraft, the Allison. Anyone that can cut one of those down to 2 jugs, make it run AND look this fk'n cool... saying he has talent is a huge understatement. This guy is a gearhead's gearhead. Kudos, props, 3 thumbs up!!! Oh yeah... "and at 100 RPM its brutal". Rofl. LOVE THIS.
Brass parts, stainless steel parts, custom handmade parts everywhere. The Flying Millyard is a unique masterpiece built by the most prolific bike builder in history. Allen Millyard.
What an incredible machine! I love it! Very well done indeed. Your unassuming enthusiasm is quite addictive. None of the woops and fist pumping nonsense those over exuberant Americans go on with, just a gentle measured expression, and humble pride in your own achievements. Very British. Jolly good show I say.
Pre-flight being the operative word... it's so nice to see that beautiful vintage Pratt and Whitney kit being re-purposed and in use. I also love that each induction and exhaust stroke is audible... a masterpiece Allen!
That bike is rolling art! You sir are a genius and a true craftsman. I love all your videos. You are an inspiration to get out and build something. Thank you for the great content. Best motorcycle channel on UA-cam!
Beautifully filmed and edited video = very professional. I live in the vast, open spaces of rural Australia, and as a motorcyclist those (seemingly) narrow roads with hedgerows scare me; I'm on edge least something should pop out from the side, which is silly since the video has been taken and you've obviously survived ! Don't stop making your films; I love them. Thanks!
Truly amazing! ( i wish my Father was around to see this, he was a highly qualified mechanic engineer, he would have been equally impressed ) This whole motorbike is almost entirely hand made a true work of art, by a genius Allen Millyard! HP of the engine would not be high, torque would enormous pulling power!! You would not need to change gears much, Beautiful machine, the workmanship is amazing!!
Such an impressing machine!!. I have a 1989 royal Enfield bullet which i used think has massive torque😂. But by seeing the fm's flywheel I'm really blown away. 5000cc of pure torque!!! I'm eagerly waiting for your viper bike series.
The finest rolling art I have ever seen its got everything, looks, mechanical wizardry and the best torque related sound ever even on idle.its just ace.
That was totally amazing I felt I was riding the bike excellent camera work and the sound with head phones is astonishing well done Allen I'm off to watch it again bye
Allen, you have those amazing skills we all love to see in a home made motorcycle. Sweet traces of Vincent, Excelsior, Crocker, Brough and others in your designs. Inspiration is the doorway to innovation and you have walked right through it proudly!
Mad lads in sheds indeed!! Just the sheer talent of this man! I'm going to Barber Motorsports in Alabama this fall and I can't WAIT to see some of Allen's bikes!
"Hello? I'd like a quote to insure a completely custom made bike that's powered by part of an aero engine.... Hello?.....Hello???" "Darren, Darren! It's that bloody nutter again...!!" Alan, you are simply amazing!
I am guessing Allen is in his 50s, probably has a few years NCB and insures multiple vehicles. Age of bike? 1947 ish? Horsepower? 100 to 150? No supercharger and not balanced like a rotary for higher revs. It might not be that scary in terms of cost. I just increased my BMW R65 to 860 and it cost me a tenner. Mainly for admin even though it was renewal time. If I was 19 and wanted a Ducati, then the price would be different. I imagine the Viper might be a different prospect... Edit 1930s and 80 ish HP after quick search. Value for insurance? Various scrap parts bolted together, could be £1,000 or £20,000 unless it's been valued!
Absolutely fantastic. My favorite “Millyard” motorcycle. I watched it on my 75” tv with the surround on. Sounds AMAZING. Looks AMAZING. What a bike. Great job!
I'm glad I listen through headphones. She sounds as good as she looks, loved seeing the people at the pub getting their phones out to get pics/videos as you passed.

The craftsmanship put into this thing is simply amazing, and a little like such of a wizard. Driving it on public roads makes it even more fantastic! It is very inspiring for an amateur like me!
Alan outstanding as always pure genius and true one off motorcycles that surely must rank with the best in the world, and all from an English shed, I am sure another major motorcycling icon started in a shed! Here’s looking to your future.
Ya shoulda heard the 60s Royal Endfield ,twins, they would go ka chug 1,2 ka chug 3,4 ka chug 1,2 ka chug ,3,4 at idle at a stoplight ! 60mph was low idle, max rpm 1200 at 120mph !!! If you ever heard one,you never forgot it !!
The longest handlebar in the world is required to reach over that colossal engine!! Did you say 60mph at 900 rpm? Adjectives fail me Alan....fantastic!!
You see long handlebars and tanks on early motorcycles, especially 4 cylinder models. We used "longhorn" handlebars on our bicycles when I was a kid in the USA in the 1950s.
Pure English skill and engineering you have my admiration. Your Flying Millyard brings back childhood memories of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang but on two wheels 😁👍👍
I was listening to some Electronic Dance Music (Amelie Lens) with my Sony SuperBass headphones on when your video popped up on the screen, so I clicked on it, jesus, your bike reminds me of the 1979 Lincolnshire Steam Fair!!
This is one of the most amazing machines I've ever seen! No joke: I just commented on Jay Leno's Garage to have you on the show. Really amazing craftsmanship that captures early motorcycling and airplanes. Great stuff.
"Made some carbs" and "designed the balance weight by eye" Genius! I love it that in this day and age it's still legal to create a completely bonkers motorcycle and ride it on the road. Long may it continue.
Sounds like a large truck Diesel. I can imagine the sound of a turbo and then the diesel just takes off. Absolutely amazing. Cant imagine the torque on that beast!
" I couldn't get the SU carbs to run right so I MADE a new pair " Lost for words and stand back in total admiration of Allen's skill.

fires every lamp post
1000rpm doing 120mph lol
