He makes me proud to live in this country. He’s a true Brit hero

I know right! That part of the video had me chortling. Heh. BANG! LOL!

Pardon I can't hear I had ear phones on.........

@@SGTDuckButter well that is not that difficult I reckon it changes engine timing and /or fuel mixture.

@@SGTDuckButter Wait for the next video, perhaps Allen will be kind enough to fill us in. I'd guess it's some sort of method by which unburned fuel is allowed to find its way into the exhaust and is ignited there by the heat of the pipe, or perhaps a deliberate mis-timing, or both. Terrifically mischievous device at any rate. It puts me in mind of the "bang-bang" anti-lag systems used by some rally cars to keep their turbos spinning - I have a clever mate who researched how it was done and built a home made version of the same thing on his turbo Lancer some years back. He did it for fun more than anything, although he claimed it did actually work at reducing turbo lag as well. The crackling and popping and banging sounded wicked. One unexpected and unfortunate result was that it quickly destroyed the exhaust system! The dump pipe and pre cat length of pipe did not handle continual fuel detonations for very long, and nor did the cat. It was ridiculous fun, although his neighbours must surely not have agreed. We certainly heard him coming, that's for sure. Hopefully Allen has engineered a way around the exhaust system destruction. Like you I'd be very interested to know how exactly he's done it, especially given it has no turbo.

They do now and are gutted they couldnt work for alan 😁 What was the idea behind the bike saw the engine and thought mm new bike or was it a mad idea to build a bike with a massive engine either way its cool. No fork could take the weights so i made some again theres always a little thing like that in your vids to make us chuckle

@@bigfish74f hahaha exactly. NASA- "We have a technical issue with putting people on Mars"... ALAN "No problem, I made this landing module during a weekend in my shed"

NASA knew Alen would tell the world that the space shuttle tiles were lined with fake coals (available in your local high street). Oh... He did 🤣😁😂😁👍👍👍🛠️⚙️🚀🚀

NASA cannot compete!

@@huntersmoon9724 I read that in his voice which makes it even funnier :)

Ahhh, the life-changing magic of sheds.

@@seanys Its a good read and look out for a pic of my Flying Millyard V Twin

What is your background and day job? You are clearly a craftsman and prove that it's possible to create masterpieces of engineering in a shed. Britain does "man in shed" best. You seem to be such a modest, nice bloke too.

I know! And he seems so mild mannered too. Certainly not the unhinged lunatic you'd expect would be behind these utterly wild and fantastic machines.

@@fox514d New Zealand does 'man in shed' quite well too. Have you heard of John Britten?

I was thinking the coals could be broken down to granules and mixed with an adhesive binder, then applied to the inside of the shields in perfect contour, a minor hidden detail of extra perfection, as long as it still performs as expected.

Another case of “if it’s stupid but it works it isn’t stupid” I actually think it’s genius a big company would spend lots of money and man hours on research, and you get a man in his shed who gets it done in the craziest way

After the demonstration of the tile fragment bring blowtorched on his finger, I particularly enjoyed the next scene, where he had a plaster on the end of his finger 😂👍

@@onemoremisfit That not how it works

@@AllenMillyard And stops the bike burning up when re-entering earth's atmosphere.

toolmike 100 🤣

Like it!!

I don't remember saying that! 🙃

He is an incredibly gifted fabricator from the land of cottage fabricators, he takes fanciful ideas and turns them into turbocharged high tech monsters that have no equal. The world doesn't get many useful engineering geniuses and he is one of them.

really Lol , he still live in stone age

I think it was Ally Pally bike show when Allen fired up the v twin... That made such a loud bang everyone in the hall went quiet 🤣🤣😂🤣🔊🔊🔊🚀🚀💥💥

@@harwoods11 The Flying Millyard is the king of backfires

A RR griffon mk 58 is the master of backfires on the overrun. A bit like a jag XK 6 potter on many steroids!

@@AllenMillyard No need of a switch I suppose...

Jono Buckley I dig your hat. It's a little bit Jethro Tull and a little bit Guns and Roses.

@@californiadreaming9216 😆 I’m also very good on Photoshop 😉

@@jonobuckley3215 suddenly I feel rather dumb 😒 LOL.

@@californiadreaming9216 who knows what’s real anymore? We live in a fake world. That’s why it’s so heartwarming to see that there are still people like Allen in the world. Take care.

"Sorry, not for sale" What, not even one piece?" "No, now fu.. ..f"

Wow of course fire coals,you can buy a bag full on ebay, now what can we do with them, mmmm.

Probably Lloyds of London....

Its just a Dodge missing a couple of wheels.:)

"No, you don't understand, Mr. Insurance agent. The air brakes are for slowing down from speeds above 200 mph, the aircraft brakes are for normal operation and the roll cage and airbags doesn't auto deploy until the forward avoidance radar indicates a imminent collision. Otherwise it's a perfectly normal motorcycle."

@@flukedogwalker3016 I got a letter from the insurance company. It can be insured once a braking parachute is added.

I came here to say exactly this. This guy is absolutely mesmerising with his knowledge, skills, out of the box solutions and yet somehow humble attitude. I am in love with this whole thing, project and series. Watching and waiting with much excite

@L G Lol

I was thinking the same. Well done us.

If I was in a position of power, I'd award him a peerage or a knighthood.

He's not a civil engineer, but I am sure he could design and build the most bonkers bridge in the world.

To the best of my knowledge, Allen was a nuclear engineer with the Ministry of Defence, here in the UK.

I don't know about that.

google the phrase "understated genius"...I think that comes closer to the mark...

I’ll cover this in the next video 😎

@@AllenMillyard Looking forward to that! Thanks Allen!

@@TheMissendenFlyer A man from a Workshop recently did a vid about Allen Millyard, not exactly complementary. I know Allan Millyard is too much a gentleman to respond to his video and his opinion of him. One of the commenters Pallecia challenged the man from the Workshop to a build off with Allan Millyard, and the man from The Workshop accepted. I reckon Allen Millyard wouldn't respond or accept this challenge, therefore, I challenged the man from The Workshop to build something, "anything" to compete with Allen Millyard, OR complete any project he has already started, better still I challenged him to build anything better or equal to anything Delboy has built who he hates and has berated for a few years. I'm ok if neither you nor Allen responds to this comment knowing the aggression this guy has towards other channels.

@@nightster6378 Who on earth would.... oh never mind. It takes all types to make a world, including absolute knobs unfortunately. Clearly the fellow of whom you speak is one of those.

Yes i saw that video. I unsubscribed from his channel after that & i don't even want Allen to even reply because we all know: # There's only one Allen Millyard # There's only one Allen Millyard

That and that he is connected to an automatic central!

NASA should be calling Allen ;)

Reminds me of reading Ted Simon's book 'Jupiters Travels', about his mammoth round the world trip on a Triumph T100 in the early 1970s... On his return to the uk in 75 (i think) he went to Triumph to offer them much needed publicity ... Their response.. "Not interested, we dont make that machine anymore.. .."

@@paulluce2557 Thats why they are out of business

My DMR Bolt uses something similar. The swingarm pivots on the bottom bracket so no change in chainstay length. Handy as I run it singlespeed.

@@beaterbikechannel2538 Saves you running a tensioner i guess also? First time i ever noticed the concentric BB/Pivot was on a Cove G-Spot (2000 ish?) although the idea may go back way further than that.

@@supermotos And Norton Commando

Sam Massingham you want to buy Allen a beverage? Stand in line! LOL

And his wife makes great cakes!

Happy new year to you and thank you 🙂

Good pick up....Altona Nth

Is that the water pump? I have the same to fit on a project of mine.

Thank you
