This is absolute World class engineering make no mistake. The complications he has had to overcome during this build - IN HIS GARDEN SHED. Looks like Kawasaki Factory made. Unreal. This guy is a mechanical genius.

Only 10 seconds but worth watching twice!

[v.e.]

And I thought this man was a genius for his 6 cylinder creation!? Just WOW!!! What can't this guy create in his garage? Absolutey masterful craftsmanship and done w/ tools I have in my own garage, but could never even conceive what he does. Sure makes me feel like I'm on the low end of the intelligence totem pole. I wonder if he would consider an apprentice? lol

Your 1600 v8 kwakka’s color scheme looks very much like my old 1995 Kawasaki zephyr 750. Loved that bike!

[luismarrone]

[frogman]

Allen, build the whole special in the style of the GN or Frazer-Nash and you would be a world-wide hero to all the gear-heads.

I didn't even know this bike existed till today! Sept 2 2023! How did I survive without this knowledge!

[rosalynbunney]

Move over Einstein you’ve just been surpassed in every department 👏👏👏👏👏

[generalzod]

[pant.brachannel]

[dtr]

I remember "Men and Motors" TV channel, i used to watch "Dr Rods Bike Surgery" on it round my mates in our work lunch break.

[davehoward]

Didnt the rear cylinders get really hot?

[restitutorebucassr.]

my dad used to own this, huge engine.

His attention to the Kaw H1, H2, and H3, got my attention. Had an H1, stepped the needles up one notch and Holy peacepipe! My 70 H1 had electronic ignition, something the 80 SZ750 didn't have. I smoked him. That bike had a real problem keeping the drive line intact. If I got a 1000 miles from chain, sprockets or spokes I would have been really happy. 'course they weren't meant for full power.
