Part Seventeen and the final installment as the V-Twin engine project comes to a close after a successful first start. Overall I'm very happy with the outcome and thought I'd try my hand at a different style of video. There will be future videos building a chassis and more ambitious engines.

Reminds of that engineer in the US who made a V twin out of Enfield cylinders. Excellent ingenuity and creativity.

New sub here. I too am a machinist and motorcycle guy all in one. I've been hoping Allan would do a full video series on how the little V-Twin is made, for quite some time. I would one day like to build one of these..

I reached out to him a few times and had to figure it out on my own. It was probably for the best to be honest. I could sell some castings further down the track if enough people are interested.

I assume you're familiar with Alan Millyard's version of the same? I'm impressed that you cast your own crankcases fair play that's serious effort. Alan used his hacksaw and a welder!

@OddsandEndsMachining Жыл бұрын

Thanks, it was definitely a big undertaking. He definitely provided some inspiration although I wanted to cast from scratch. The main goal was to learn the skills to allow me to build outside of what’s already available for future projects and the pit bike/Honda motors a pretty much free so the total cost of the project was a couple of hundred dollars and the stakes were low.

@@OddsandEndsMachining Have you been riding it at all? I am planning on making a replica of a JAP V-twin for my 1928 Morgan project. I have been assembling a small but complete machine shop to support the Morgan project first which I am starting my KZfaq channel with as soon as it is a little warmer . Then I am starting a garage that specializes in pre WWI race cars as well as Brooklands style boattail racers (type 35 Bugatti). I would love to start building my own version of a front engines cyclecar similar to a Morgan and a Pembleton. I'll keep you informed as to the progress. I am also going to build my own milling machine similar in style to a Gingery. You are an awesome inspiration my friend.

Got a basket case 68 CT90 (your "postibike") and in the course of the rebuild, this week discovered Millyard, now losing sleep over the vee twin sonic bliss and the prospect of knocking together a couple of C70s. Had thought about casting vs. cutting/welding; looking forward to poring through your work. Seems like a Honda platform 140cc twin which fit in slightly modded posties, cubs, STs and Ss would be a world beater. Food for thought. You do good works, man. Cheers.

@OddsandEndsMachining Жыл бұрын

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I do think if the end goal was the running engine and not to learn new skills along the way, I would have just cut and welded and probably could have had it all done in a fraction of the time.

Awesome work - well done mate! If you can upload a video/short of it running with an exhaust pipe that would be sweet. I'm assuming you are firing this on opposing strokes and not like a harley where it fires both cylinders on the same stroke? Really impressive work, so many technical aspects you have covered - well done!

@OddsandEndsMachining Жыл бұрын

Thanks, I’ll probably do a short video of it running with some pipes on this weekend depending on how I go for time. I was going to fire it on opposing strokes but I kinda wanted the Harley idle sound but it doesn’t quite happen. I might try opposite strokes when it goes back together after the inspection as all it takes is turning the cam 180 degrees, I’ll have to compare the sound difference with mufflers.

Dr Honda wasn't really into V-twins, he liked parallel twins and 4's. They are just easier to package in the frame and share cam chains, cams, cylinder walls, wasted spark, are lighter etc . But don't get me wrong , your motor is still cool. looking forward to you two strokes - another thing Dr Honda hated

Thanks, I’m looking forward to it too. Although Honda were pretty good at the two strokes whether they hated it or not haha.
