      I was thinking the same.. How in the world? I would be using the precise measuring instruments as I was going along and Allen just uses them to double check his work... Let me correct that statement...I would not be able to do this...and I (B.I.D.A.) Before I Discovered Allen-- considered myself a decent, above average bike builder...HA! I love this guy.. we can all identify using simple tools.. But to use them at such a level of precision is just ...mind-boggaling:)

      @@garystratton4125 Yeah. Usually, if you want to up the capacity or cylinder count on a vehicle, you start and end the plan by looking at suitable engines to swap in. The average person doesn't instantly start by wondering where to graft a couple more cylinders onto the current engine. :D

  • @jdmjesus6103

    I think what Allen didn't fully describe is that the initial position of the first rod pin in the lathe doesn't matter, as long a it's somewhere near either the top or the bottom. Being straight up or down gives the most rotational accuracy when it's locked onto the tool post. Then it's just a case of rotating it exactly 180 deg. Very clever.
    It had me guessing at first as I couldn't see a dial indicator on the first pin, I didn't know how he got it at top dead centre, then I realised it doesn't even need to be. Excellent video!

    • @silentunicorn6526

  • @oldschoolmotorsickle
    @oldschoolmotorsickle 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I find the crankshaft throw arrangement fascinating.
    The usual cross plane staging puts the 180 degree split between cylinders 2 + 3; this creates the effect of a 90 degree twin paired with another 90 degree twin, out of phase by 180 degrees. Mr Millyard places the 180 degree splits between the cylinder pairs, creating two 180 degree twins separated by 90 degrees.
    I imagine that either design creates a beehive of buzzing at the grips at high engine speeds, but which one is better all-round?

    • @LesSharp
      @LesSharp 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's very interesting. In his previous fours, he's used a two-plane arrangement, with crank pins at 90*. The way Yamaha used to do this, with the TZ500/700/750, had it fire like two twins strapped together. Single-plane, outer pistons in parallel, inner pistons in parallel, 180* apart. This one seems to have cyls 1&2 at 90* to 3&4. This might create a bit of a rocking couple. Looking forward to the results.

    • @oldschoolmotorsickle
      @oldschoolmotorsickle 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No need to wait for results, this is the same layout of his other four cylinder bikes. The old TZs fired two cylinders simultaneously, then after 180 degrees of rotation fired the other pair.
      Allen’s design brings one cylinder to TDC every 90 degrees, but not in the style of the Yamaha R1 cross plane design.
      My curiosity revolves around the the resulting secondary imbalances, and how that affects the overall feel of the engine and what type of vibration “signature” it would create. We’ll have to ask him to create another four-cylinder with the alternate firing order and submit it for testing!

    Allen, you've got such amazing skills so elegantly and effortlessly presented, as if it were the simplest thing (which is not!) in the world. Simply great done!

    It’s cathartic to watch you work Allen. Baking looks good too!

    Like a few others I was expecting some hacksawing, welding and grinding, didn't know the cranks went together like that. Pretty cool. I tell you another thing, it was nice to see you not babying the con rods like every other builder I've seen. They rap them in diapers and tape and rubber and Styrofoam etc. I
    never thought those little taps ever harmed anything. Thanks for posting.

    I find your videos very relaxing. I enjoy the tech side as much as your birds and cup cakes.

    Excellent video thank you. I'm not a biker but am an Engineer with many years of experience in engines. Most of my time was spent on larger diesels so I've not been exposed to the ways and whiles of motor cycle motors. Your shop looks tidy and well appointed. Nice job.

    Actually just tuned in to see what culinary delights Tracey would be whisking up…..😊
    I did however wonder how the crank would be pinned…..must admit I didn’t think the material would drill so readily.
    Question answered.
    Another super video Allen, thanks for sharing your considerable knowledge.
