Millyard is an absolute genius and one of the finest engineers I have ever seen especially on motorcycles Millyard has some of the most wicked tricked out 1off bikes in the world. I just don't understand why he doesn't have his own line of motorcycles in dealerships. Millyard has motorcycles all over the world in museums with his crazy engine modifications like turning a 4 cyl into a v8 or v12 and doing it so perfect that they look like the factory turned them out. The Flying Millyard in this video he used the heads and barrels from an airplane and he fabricated the rest himself how amazing is that. I am a big fan of his work as so many others are however if it wasn't for UA-cam I don't think I would know who he is and that's a damn shame he should be well known to more than just the hard core enthusiasts or the lone UA-cam stalker that stumbles across his work much like myself. IDK maybe he has more going on then I know like I said I am just a YT stalker lol. One amazing man he is for sure!!Millyard is an absolute genius and one of the finest engineers I have ever seen especially on motorcycles Millyard has some of the most wicked tricked out 1off bikes in the world.

I am not saying that any of these other bikes or their builders are not equally amazing I just know much more about Millyard's work then the others although I do think that Dennis Franz motorcycle was incredible and sounds great. I believe I have watched a YT video of this bike and he milled and turned all the parts for that little engine himself that's talent right there! All these bikes are great and I love to see the world turn with these back yard engineers showing the word you don't have to be a giant factory with million dollar tools to turn out a machine that can take on the big boys.
I vote for the Franz Flyer. Not something ridiculously over-powered or overly complicated. And that V8 sound is just mind-bending.
agree! i actually want that bike xD
YES !!! that sound makes me HI. BEAUTIFUL SOUND,, BEAUTIFUL !!!!
Yep, me too.
Sounds like a big bore American V8 at a fraction the size
Looks like only a drum brake on the rear hub, but yeah what a sound!.......
m
allen millyard is by far the greatest engineer you will ever see an so down to earth
Entièrement d'accord le Tesla de la mécanique un vrai génie et je suis modeste
What people may not realise, this man doesn’t just swap engines, or just buy them.
He makes them by hand in a garden shed !
These engines are made by him.
He’s a genuine genius.
Such beautiful machines. One of a kind.
The Franz Flyer has approval ratings high enough to go straight to full mass production. A few different engine sizes- 350, 650, 1000cc. Retro and modern frames. And I'd want one of each!
Yea, but maybe add some brakes to the front wheel?
The Franz Flyer V8 392cc was my absolute favourite! - so small engine, - and what a LOVELY sound!! thanks!
yes! very clean build and love the sound :-) so small engine package for 392cc
Beautiful bike. Is the transmission self built or perhaps from a Moto Guzzi V35/50 or something similar ?.
Early BMW kick starter transmission. It sounds amazing.
We all know the Chevy Big Block. This is a Sweet Block =D

GZUXH🤗🤗😆
That Franz Flyer is possibly the best sounding motorcycle engine I have ever heard.
All wonderful, but my favourite is the Franz Flyer.
The Franz flyer's got my vote. A mini V-8.
I'd love to have a Franz Flyer mini-v8 in a 750-800cc version with a bigger gas tank and bags :)
Awesome shaft drive too!
How sweet is that last one, "the little V8"
That Franz Flyer is beautifull, sounds very smooth and as a V8 should sound, and is the only bike in this video that doesn't kill you when it falls over on you.
And it's engine is a complete self build without using components from existing engines, all others used at least cylinder blocks and pistons from other engines.
Yes...Franz Flyer did indeed sound perfect! What a gem...
Der Franz ist der beste!!!👍
That little V8, what a sound!
I love the Millyard Viper V10. I would ride that bike everyday. Allen Millyard is the greatest custom engine/ bike builder of all time.
my fave; Franz Flyer; delightful little machine
John Britten from NZ built the Britten. Kicked butt on the race track. Look that up.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Don't listen to those who tell you to miss the start of this video, the first bike, the Flying Millyard is absolutely sublime. FFS, a 5 litre V twin with a KICKSTART! I could listen to that tick over all day :)
no shit ............mechanical music............and how about that little V8 at the end .........all very cool though.................wb
Not a 5 liter, a .5 liter (500cc)
Michael W. Take another look Michael, it's 4894cc rounded up to 5,000cc aka 5 litre.
aussie sam Its got to be a typo, nobody kicks over a 5 litre v-twin! It would break his leg if it ever back kicked!
Nope, not a typo. The Millyard engine is a 5 litre V Twin engine based on two Pratt & Whitney R1340 aircraft cylinders cut down from the radial engine. Do you think I would have made my comment because someone put a kickstart on a 500cc engine? Nuts.
Mate, I've been riding bikes for 45 years and I'm a technical writer and editor, stop insisting you are right when you're clearly wrong. You could have worked out the facts for yourself with a simple web search.
In '67, Honda put out a 250cc/6 that ate up everything at Laconia, then was never heard from again. We were talking thimble-sized pistons, there. I can only imagine the size of the pistons in the Franz Flyer. Undoubtedly the coolest thing I've ever seen on two wheels. To think that this guy engineered and fabricated the engine and configured the drivetrain and frame is simply astounding.
Franz Flyer for me, baby!!! That engine sounds like an old Ford 8 banger!!! Nice work, Dennis!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Franz Flyer , all the way . That bike is mint ! Awesome sound!
The Franz Flyer engine is just amazing, the sound is like beautiful music . The Kawasaki Z 2300 i would like to own, i had a Z 1300 before . But all are absolut fantastic creations.
Klare Sache, der Franz Flyer sticht sie alle aus! Fahrbar, schön gebaut, geiler Sound, Kickstarter - was will man mehr
Allen Millyard ist very, very Best!
You'd swear it was a car coming down the street. Sweet sounding V8
Allen Milyard is a legend.
Wow! These bikes are out of this world. Absolutely amazing.
Franz Flyer , ! Totally adorable. 10 stars from me. Wish I could see more of the bike .
The Flying Millyard is probably more reliable than a Harley, it even sounds better. :)
My favourite & the one I'd personally like to own was the last one, the V8 :-)
The Franz Flyer is my favorite the sound is wicked 😍👏
The Franz Flyer really sounded mean. Nice simple design that any motorcycle fan can appreciate.
The Franz Flyer is just about the coolest thing. I would buy one and ride it down to Quaker Steak n Lube bike night all summer long.....
And I would drink beer and listen to you do it with a huge sloppy grin on me dial.
Absolute gems !! All of them.
There is a lot of talent out there. All were exceptional. Very good video.
V12 is an absolute work of art, little v8 is stunning
Been a mechanic and racer my whole life but seeing stuff like this makes me feel unaccomplised and well,stupid these guys are on a whole different level .fantastic machines but I like the cbx and the little v8 best.sweetest sound ever from both
Magnifique machine. En france nous somme des trés trés gros mordue de motos. Moi en particulier lol. franchement j'ai beau savoir bricoler mais alors la les mecs qui fabrique eux même ses monstre la je leur tire mon chapeaux 👍 car revoir entierement une mécanique de A a Z refaire villebrequin Carter moteur rectifier et même carrement fabriquer les piéces eux même specifiquement pour leurs creation sont de veritable genie. Un grand bravos les mecs!!
Gros ✌ a tous mes motards du monde.
Not only is Allen a rare genius, its bizzare when he just gets a bog standard hacksaw to start cutting engines in half in his garden shed... the end results look like they came straight from a kawasaki factory. Absolute perfectionism.
Lot of beautiful bikes, but that Andreas V12 really takes the cake! BEAUTIFUL!!
Glad you boosted Allen Millyard, he's the king of bike builders, IMO.
The Franz flyer is pretty cool, great note too.
I'm not keen on V8s, but the little V8 at the end is my favourite of these. I just wish it had a front brake!
Frank flyer for me, even though I wanted all of these!
same here
That Viper bike is INSANE.
I would hate to drop it. There is NO picking that up.
With that kind of ground clearance I'm not sure it actually can fall over
Procyon lotor Allen says that if you rev the engine to hard while stationary it would tip the bike over
Awesome engineering work these guys have done!
I like the last one best. Not just a lot of engine, but a sweet retro look and very nice sound.
Wow! I didn't know Allen Millyard did a V-12 Kawasaki. Excellent!
Most complicated bike there
That v12 Honda CBX is awesome.
Franz Flyer. He needs to speak with Honda / Suzuki / Kawasaki. They have had it wrong all these years. The sound of any motorbike can result in good sales. Needs better brakes, on the bikes bigger than 392cc!! Franz gets my vote.
Imo,,, the last one is the best,,, sounds awesome
Franz Flyer is the winner! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
All these machines are all made by brilliant engineers with there own unique way to build their own Unique engines and bikes, my favourite has to be Allen Milliard as his UA-cam channel show him create an engine with a hacksaw by cutting an 4 cyl engine block up and welding back together a V8 and a straight bar and drill to mill big end bearings the man is a genius. And to top it off it looks factory made. All this from a small shed in the U.K. 🇬🇧
Impressive engineering on all of the bikes amazing
The Flying Millyard was not a motor cycle! But a piece of art...
Flying Millyard...wow! Franz Flyer...a V-8 that sounds like a V-8 even tho it is small...The Millyard looked like part of an engine from an airplane of yesteryear...all of them are feats of engineering...lots of hard work and ingenuity.
I believe it is 2 cylinders cut off a radial aircraft engine
Such sweet creations too. Love them. Keep filming and posting please.
alan millyard, what a man.
I know but I cringed at the rear tyre of the big blue zed :)
Awesome builder !👍👍
That tiny V8 in that chassis. It feels right, it looks right and most of all, it sounds right. Not like these other motorcycles on steroids.
Totally agree! Looks really classic and sounds soooo great! :)
NO WORDS FANTASTIC MOTORCYCLES
love it.......their are some clever people out there
I would definitely buy the V12 kawasaki and V10,they pure art
A V8 in a bicycle frame. The engine note is beautiful.
Imagine being able to take that Franz Flyer out for a ride down lovely country roads on a nice hot summers day... imagine the sound!
my guy kick starting that whip at the start is fearless
Alf Don’t you fancy kicking over a 5 litre twin 😳😳😳
@@chrissanders1027 hahahaa
No "Britten" the Ducati beating super bike made by John Britten that was hand made, frame/fairings and engine forged in a pottery kiln in the South Island of New Zealand?
The quote of him forging the engine in the kiln is a common misconception. The engine was cast by a local foundry to John's and Hans Weekets designs. John was using Kirsteen's pottery kiln to heat treat the crankcase.
I think a NASCAR and Le Mans powered motor tricycles are a great suggestion I came up with. There is nothing wrong with them.
Franz Flyer hands down......!!!❤️👍👍
Legend has it the man who rode the flying millyard vibrated apart
Did I just see a Ferrari engine in a bic ! ,WOW CRAZY. The last bic the old man was riding around the car park a work of art nothing less, actually they're all works of art ! .
That first machine sounded like a Spitfire aircraft, it was beautiful. As was the Kawasaki Z2300, what beasts, nice one Allen. Also Franz's V-8, what a beauty with that classical styling.
Starts at 1:11
guys are genius`s
The bike at the end sound the coolest!
Great video,great bikes.
やってみたい事をやってみる!!
作ってみたいものを作ってみる!!
そして乗る!!
あなた達はとても素晴らしいです!!
A millyard what a legend
I love the Franz V8 sound, but I also love the effortless power of the Flying Millyard. Hard to choose if I could have one of them.
The Franz Flyer looks the most like a bike you could live with every day, the others are occasional fair-weather rides.
Britten V1000 should be on this list
I like that sound
Viper bike ftw. 'Hey bro what you got is that a 107?' *chuckle* 'Nah it's a 488' *head explodes*
The Franz Flyer can be sold en mass no problem and the z2300,WOW that too!
Andreas also made a Ferrari 308 engine powered motorcycle. He brought it to our CBX bike rally one year in Morro Bay, Calif. It was a 3 liter V-8 with dual overhead cams.
Unbelievable engineering, but all I can think about is all the time spent on them you could be out actually riding a motorbike.
Z2300!! What a fantastic beast
6:05 Maravilloso.
Cien porciento de acuerdo!
Awesome!!! Why so many dislikes???
The first V Twin operating manual requires a knee replacement after start up
Marcel from here in NZ and his Sti powered MadBoxer needs to be on this list!
That old dudes bike is fucking sick that's a beast..
Great vid.... fabulous soundtrack.... thank you.
The Franz Flyer V8 the BEST !!!
Basically, Allen Millyard, the Movie. ❤️
The Franz. Music to my ears.
Millyard V10 Viper : ♻️♻️♻️♻️♻️♻️ si tu accélère trop fort 😂😂😂
BIKE meets ART... 😍
Die von Dennis Franz gefällt mir am besten
Amazing people
Nice bikes to baby.
Very sick. I love that!!
