VW 1900cc TDI turbo diesel motorbike walkaround and chat.

VW 1900cc TDI turbo diesel motorbike walkaround and chat.
There has been so much interest in the bike recently that it's made me realise I've not actually posted much up about it. So I did a walk around and 15 min chat about all the main parts.

This is something straight out of the apocalypse. Without a doubt one of the coolest things I've seen. I bet the stock 90hp and 150tq feels brisk on that thing.

Long story short I've seen this in the flesh it's truly a fantastic piece of engineering on a budget, don't even think about knocking it until you can prove you've done better.

I can just imagine Allen Millyard watching this video and saying ''why did I not think of that'' and then realising it was only a dream. It wins all the prizes. The fact that you did it and it works is a great achievement.

I'm in absolute awe over the ingenuity of this machine, I mean the clutch using a PSM to lighten the lever load and the heated grips using engine heat run-off is brilliant! It's obvious that so much time and effort have gone into something as complex as this, good job dude

[JohnFrumFromAmerica]

If you wrote the specifications of this bike down you would imagine a space age bike. What you get is a glorious junkyard mash up. Love it.

[awdrifter]

This is like a Mad Max bike. And it would probalby be really suited for the apocalypse too, seeing that diesel can last longer than gasoline.

Problem solving at its finest. Somehow this vw diesel, MOTORCYCLE perfectly demonstrates hotrodding. There are "things"...and we can make those things do other stuff to suit our minds eye. Structural, mechanical, hydraulic, electrical in use and ALL coming from sources where their original designers couldn't fathom the current application. The time, trials, effort and commitment is to be congratulated .(Imagine if folks like this were fed resources and support. What a world) Thanks for sharing this!

I saw this on my commute home last month at the Coldra in Newport. Absolute insanity, great build and nice to see something different!

[mozer]

At first glance I laughed….then the more I looked the more I became intrigued. Anyone with any kind of mechanical curiosity will respect the work that has gone into this build, purely because there’s nothing really to copy from. I applaud your work, and I apologise for my initial ignorance! Great job!

[tadik]

this bike is really one of a kind. I love the heated handlebars among many other bits

[gsoup]

I'm a car mechanic, nothing more nothing less. I admire the hours and brain capacity you must have to create such a marvel.

[saketkee]

I'm very interested. I saw a motorcycle using a car engine and I loved it.
and since watching many channels only your channel Explain components and problems and solutions. Thank you for having a work like this.

[Chum_Kiu]

The Mad Max-est bike I've ever seen!

[captlarry-]

Really quite brilliant problem solving, with many elegant solutions. How you used the engine as a stressed frame member, and fabed the steering head and coupling of the rar frame to the engine is worthy of its own video. Bravo !

[Jello]

Love it. May not be the prettiest, but its an extremely cool and unique build! Awesome!

[ponytrishpip]

I love the thought and ingenuity that has gone it to creating this beast. Well done

[awsomedude]

I think everyone really wants a good diesel motorcycle and its amazing and funny to see you making your own.

[KillaMTB]

It’s crazy how you overcome all the problems of fitting a diesel car/van engine into a bike and it looks like something out of mad max I love what you have built here

[bruceparks]

I so respect this kind of engineering, building, and out of the box thinking. If I had your clever skills and experience, I'd die happy.

[lt.lasereyez]

As amazed as I am at this build as amazed I am that you're still alive mate
