I dont get this bloke. He's sooo laid back with what he's achieved and accomplished. But its just soo refreshing to see someone who is NOT full of himself as unfortunately we've become accustomed to these days. I just dont know or even begin to understand 'how' he goes about creating something from nothing but his own imagination. Its incredible thats all I can say and I wish him all the best in the future.
He certainly is a legend. You may already be aware but Allen has a great channel of his own where he has been recently uploading some fantastic vids. Thanks for watching here cheers.
I do not want to take anything away from Alan in any way shape or form in fact I really wish I had his skills and facilities to create the machines he has shown us, however I would like to highlight the original bike that his six was based on. As the Honda RC174 is arguably the rarest bike on earth, I think there are only 2 original bikes in existence, not much was known about the internal details until the replicas were commisioned, there are a lot of details and I will not list them all here but As Alan has touched on they were fragile in comparison to his creation but then again they were very focused on ultimate performance, afterall they were chasing a world championship, and like most racing machines they were a compromise of performance and reliability having said that they easily competed and finished in the isle of man. I am going to plagerise here for the sake of quickness : "Each individual component was constructed according to its intended performance capabilities with little or no margin for error. Supple enough in one plane to be deformed by hand but sufficiently strong in another to spin to 17,000rpm, the thirteen-piece crankshaft ran in seven bearings (24mm in the centre tapering out to 14mm at the ends) and played host to three different types of con-rod. The four overhead camshafts were barrel-shaped and acted in pairs to control the twenty-four inlet and exhaust valves (a set-up which effectively altered the cam profile from one cylinder to the next). Beautifully wrought, the cylinder block, cylinder head and crankcase were formed from twenty-nine, twenty-three and fifteen interlocking sub-moulds respectively. Stocked with needle, roller and ball bearings (almost all of which are non-standard sizes), the true beauty of a Honda 'Six' is only revealed via X-ray. Indicative of the 'no compromise' approach behind its development, the unit was riddled with oil ways some of which are siamesed so as to make tiny but discernible savings in overall width / weight. The result of such painstaking attention to detail was an engine that not only developed a sensational 222bhp per litre but also dominated its class despite giving away a nigh on eighteen percent capacity advantage (can you imagine any of the contemporary F1 teams fielding a 2 litre V8 rather than a 2.4 litre unit?)" I think the sentence that summed it up for me there was "attention to detail" this is typical Japanese and a testament to Soichero's policy of giving free reign to his designers the general details were nothing new, ie double overhead cams and four valves per cylinder, but it was the way they were executed and brought together that made it so interesting they are not only a work of art assembled but every component is when examined in isolation.
@@xvdd1 Everything you have stated here is spot on, the 250 Honda 6 was and is the most magnificent piece of mechanical engineering ever, considering the decade is was created makes it more so.George Beale's replica was also a true masterpiece but he had to go to great lengths to achieve the motor's construction. Anyhow this is one of the best posts iv'e read recently, anything to do with the Honda 6 just gives me goosebumps, great stuff.
When you look at the side profile of the RC174 it’s amazing how similar It looks to the (far more modest) CB450/500. It’s a classic look for air cooled Hondas.
I suspect you mean Allen as I just filmed and published this on my day out at Prescott. If you want to catch up with more Allen Millyard content he has his own fantastic UA-cam channel well worth a visit. Thanks for stopping by this vid and commenting.
This channel is also obsessed with Allen. Quite a few vids feature him and machines. Thanks for stopping by. I'm sure you are aware but Allen has a great channel himself 👍👍👍
When I see Alan pick up a basic hacksaw and just start cutting a cylinder block apart my heart skips a beat. But it works! He is a metal bashing god. Showing results for Burt Munro would have loved this guy.
Actually you are because I have a set hanging on my wall and eventhough I can build a complete motorcycle frame and all, I look at the heated grips and it looks like too big of a job for me !
Had the Honda ss 50 when i was a lad every one else has FS1E 's , if i was you id done what you did to the SS50 Awesome , now go and race them FS1E's. my old ss50 needed new pistons , my dad help me fix it , started 1st time , dad said take it down road and back ,take it very easy , got 500 yards it made a bit of a noise then stopped, the timing chain wheel had small hairline, the place we got the spare parts , took the engine and rebored it, back on road next day. but i was always last to arrive Love to see you work , like stepping back in time. if only we all could work with same love, for what we do. if only.
Im also very keen on fixing superchargers to motorbikes.could you pls tell me how to connect superchager to a motorbike engine( mechanical type) thanks a lot.
He"s a product of a seventies real apprenticeship with the MOD. I left school at 16 and could have walked into an apprenticeship at Perkins, Mollins, Baker Perkins, Hotpoint, Redring all in Peterborough. Due to the "benefits" of EU membership all of these have been moved to other Countries. I eventually joined the RAF as a Flight Systems Tech, finishing as an Avionics Engineer. I feel sad that the youth of today have had these opportunities stolen from them by globalists like Bliar.

@@classicraceruk1337 I have a 1963 M120 and 30 years ago, I had a Red Panther 250, which was sold years ago. My first experience of slopers was a 460cc P&M back in 1986. 'Fortunately'(for me), my Panther doesn't have a sidecar and sits happily with it's Sunbeam & Velocette LE siblings and doesn't seem at all fazed, by the latest upstart, an MT10 Yamaha.

Thanks Derek, been lucky to get to chat to him on a few occasions at various shows, really interesting chap. If you've not found it yet Allen has his own UA-cam channel currently building a Kawasaki super 6 and he shows us his amazing 100 year old mower.

@@derekbond3512 Nothing wrong with a bike in the living room. Had my modified XSR900 my living room all winter, only taken out for my latest vid, now the wife has insisted her Triumph goes in there until after the lockdown. Anyway glad we share a mutual appreciation of Allen Millyard, many thanks for dropping by the channel.
@@Banditmanuk Much appreciation to yourself for this production for us to enjoy, i can't get to these venues anymore so i'll tag along with you ,lol. Thank you.
Why do these commentators always claim it's a Mike Hailwood Replica! which I'm sure Allen Millyard never meant it to be, their wasn't only Mike that rode them. brilliant work by Allen. though.
The Flying Millyard 5 litre v twin had a similar history. His V10 won a competition. Allen said he’d make the biggest V twin ever and the following year it was done .
If I take a hacksaw to a Bike engine then it's scrap shortly after. Allen casually says he saws a couple of cylinders off, welds it to another engine, makes a new crank, makes the frame, tank, wheels...etc. the same way I tell people I put petrol in my car.
I’ve come across the Honda 6 quite a few times. Over the years. The fist time was in Douglas Isle of Man, behind the promenade. Honda kept all there TT bikes in a shed behind the shops the sheds had ill fitted wooden doors there now worth over a million pounds. And there was at least two plus Phil reads bikes would have been there too. I don’t think Honda Japan new they when to the chippy on them.. And Allan just made his own. What a absolute ⭐️ star. This was about 1978.
It is incredible what he managed to build. I stood behind that bike when he started it at the National Museum (vid on my channel), almost made my ears bleed! Thanks for stopping by the channel.
Great video. Thank you. I watched and filmed Mike the bikes boy, David Hailwood run one up Prescott's hill, fantastic sound. It's on my uploads if anyone wants to view it.
Absolutely, I admire his talent and modesty. His own UA-cam channel is my favourite on the net. Been lucky enough to meet and chat with him a couple of times and he really is a top bloke. Thanks for watching
Love what this fella does, push the envelope,,not keen on the flying millyard though ,kawasakis ,though my uncle says hes bast$rdised them . He likes them standard ,an owns from 400 triple upto 900z,,h2 500 is his love owned it from when old enough to ride it ...
I too love the stock classic two strokes (evident from our recent visit to the classic bike show vid) I chatted to Allen and he thinks the air cooled two strokes are almost now to easy (boring) to add cylinders to, so now likes to do more complicated four strokes and is currently making a Kawasaki super 6
I wish I had Allen's ability, the man's a legend. You’re uncle should set aside his opinion for a moment and just appreciate his achievements for what they are.
I find the English bike styles and culture to be way, way better than the American "chopper" style, which is incredibly cringe. I grew up in America, but I've always loved the Cafe Racer style, "normal" looking motorcycles. The flat, square gas tanks, make motorcycles beautiful. They stopped producing the square gas tanks in the late 1970's, in America, and switched all bikes to having an awful "tear drop" gas tank, and an extra low profile seat. The body lines of the tear drop gas tank, along with the weirdly shaped seat, was made worse by the advent of mag wheels.
We certainly have a great history of building motorcycles here in England, I don't think the chopper style was ever big over here. I guess the larger open roads of the States suits the chopper/cruiser type bikes more. You should be able to find a tour around our National Motorcycle Museum on this channel showing all the major Brit bikes up to present day (a great place to visit if you are ever near Birmingham England
He does sometimes build two of a kind and sell one like his current Kawasaki super 6 but I think this Honda replica will be a one of a kind. I believe it was quite challenging because of the small scale of the engine. Think your biggest challenge is winning the lottery, so good luck with that and thanks for watching.
This man should be knighted. absolute legend, so modest, talks about building a motorcycle from scratch like he's made a paper plane.
Absolutely Robert. An extraordinary talent. If you've not checked out his own UA-cam channel you should. Thanks for visiting mine cheers
Absolutely one of the best workmanship I’ve seen in a long time. The Guy is gifted.
He certainly is. He's also got a great UA-cam channel of his own that's well worth subscribing to. Thanks for watching

But its just soo refreshing to see someone who is NOT full of himself as unfortunately we've become accustomed to these days. I just dont know or even begin to understand 'how' he goes about creating something from nothing but his own imagination. Its incredible thats all I can say and I wish him all the best in the future.
Completely agree, not a show type of person at all, quite humble yet he is able to build engines with hacksaw, files and basic tools.
The man engineer's to CNC level tolerances with bog standard tools & no computer control in sight, the man's a legend.
He certainly is a legend. You may already be aware but Allen has a great channel of his own where he has been recently uploading some fantastic vids. Thanks for watching here cheers.
