      I remember, 17 year old and half a year into my apprenticeship, I promised to replace a big end (ball) bearing gone bad for a friend. Pressing the crankpin out was the easy part. Pressing back in without a throw on the crancshaft halves was a nightmare. Didn,t realice that a tap with a heavy, soft hammer was all it took. Well, thats 50 years ago, so it's nice to still be learning. Next time I shall do like you, Allen.

    I really appreciate how you mix precision methods with the "quick and dirty-while calculated". For those without a mill or lathe, we have to take procedures accordingly. From an engineering/manufacturing standpoint, we're so afraid of removing material. The rationale of a stepped tolerance scares many engineers. Simplistic manufacture and integration of fabrication methods is soooooo important. Your gradual move toward greater precision tools (based on the situation at-hand) are to be followed.

    I would love to know more about balancing of these cranks, especially with your efficiency in tool use and ability to see within your mind, your goals.
    This was highlighted even more as I rode a friends H1 with a rebuilt crank from another shop. It vibrated worse than any H1 I ever rode!

    I have watched this over and over... I can see how Allen has stitched the casing in to the original one and if you look closely you will see how he as widened the cam chain tunnel and the cylinder head to run the camchain from the back cylinder to the front. A few other things are the front top cam sprocket will have a spacer fitted behind it and the base and head gaskets Allen will make.The rear head and cylinder are stock. also the cam chain tensioner is adapted too so it does not get in the way of the chain. All very well done I need to add and so cleaver... The crank pin I can make and have hardened and ground for a few pounds... So off we go guys lets BUILD....

    Absolute Genius. Using soil to cushion the crank while you hold it WITH YOUR FOOT & slice bits off it with a 6" angle grinder. Then the copier hammer bit. Wow. I take my hat off to you.

    Super. I don't have the desire or the facilities but resort to the basic grunt methods you show here. You do inspire. Maybe, someday, you could dig up an old Matchless 250, 1960 vintage, that had notorious crankpin failures (pet peeve of mine back in the day) and dandy up a better crankshaft arrangement than they had. My mentor, old fella, made a new crankpin from air-die tool steel but it also broke at a step between the pin and the rod bearing race .

    Hello Mr Millyard, love the video's. I would like to see one of how you modify the ss50 v-twin crankcase. I absolutely love this, and am inspired by your work and ingenuity. Kind regards. Stijn from Belgium.

    Hi Allen, made my afternoon watching you take a cutting wheel to a crank perched under your foot, then.. I'll "just smooth off any rough edges"..mate its pure poetry to my ears, then it's. I whack it with this hammer..bash, bash.. and it's within half a thou..!! Fantastic watching honestly, loving your series of video's, making lock down (or anytime) bearable. Cheers, Alex.

    Allen, your mechanical genius is without question but I must also say that the video production and quality are excellent and make the whole experience of watching, a complete joy.

    I am looking forward to see how the rest of the engine goes together. As a kid, all my mates has FS1E Yamahas and for a short while I had an SS50. Their bikes were faster than mine and I dreamt of my SS50 being faster. It was not to be.

    Could you do a vid on the one with two wheels. Thanks for helping keep us sane in these strange times.

    I’m 16 and I hope to one day be at the knowledge level of Allen. I love working in the garage and my dream is to be able to build custom engines of all types. One day I want to scratch build an engine from just blocks of metal. My current project is a full restoration on a 1979 Moto Guzzi V50II. The whole bike is apart right now, including the engine and trans.

    This is the best show in any genre , a genius engineer in his shed , cup cake one on one and how to steal before cooled .

    Excellent video! When I saw the last ss 100 v-twin video, my first thought was ... you guessed it. Thank you for this video.
