Could you imagine the heat coming off of that engine and those headers?

It's gorgeous. Lord knows it will be stable with that wheelbase, and weight. I would have put a windscreen on it just so I would get pushed off. There's definitely enough power to make up for any extra wind resistance. I'm with Bill, those back cylinders have got to cook your knees. It's gonna be hard to make tight turns. Beside the wheelbase, the rider is so stretched, that I don't think he can turn the bars very much and keep both hands on the bars. And I'd want much better/more brakes on the front. The thing weighs 1200lbs and only has a single rotor.
They're claiming it's a production bike. Wouldn't they have to offer them for sale, or at least make more than one, to be able to claim that?
All that being said, it's a fantastic example of engineering and workmanship to get it running and looking as well as it does.

Allen Millyard is impressive in every aspect of machining and building. Every time I see a video that involves him I will watch it. I got to see some of the videos of the build on this bike. He is very creative and has to be very smart. I get a kick out of his little tiny shop and old tools yet he still turns out better products than big factories. Hand made I suppose and he likes things right. Not sure what he does for money but the time it must take to find parts build parts and lay out the math and drawings to build what he does has to take every minute of the day. I can't see the hours needed for those bike builds being profitable. In any case he is very impressive. I thought the v 12 Kawasaki he made was a marvel. Of course all the two strokes are my favorites that he does.
did you see it last night on HENRY COLE the motorbike show
Yes Rob never seen it before. Thought it may appeal to our friends overseas.
you know he went to get that ducati 748 done at louigimoto in bristol thats the shop chris that flashes the ecu is in,

I missed part of it will check it out. Thanks.

I was at Barbers last week and they had a half dozen of his bikes on display. The detail is so good, you would think they came straight from the factory. I'm amazed at what this man can build.

I had a chain oiler for about 50 miles. It is a pita. Oily mess.
I would have loved to have seen them.
It's not meant to go in your Ass. It will lube it mind.
