A friend on mine saw it for sale at a dealer auction a few years ago. He said I would really like it so I asked him to bid on it for me. He bid above my maximum, but I'm glad he did. I had no idea if it ran and did not know about Allen Millyard at the time. I contacted Allen and he gave me tuning specifications that were spot on. After a month of minor restoration work I had it running nicely. My hat is off to him. Pure genius.

Had one as well in the mid 70’s. Never did I wish for more power, it had plenty at the crack of the throttle. Handling was a different story. Nasty habit of wobbling the front end at speeds over 70-80 mph. Added a nice dampener and problem mostly went away. Riders these days will not experience the power band the two strokes had back then. Plenty of torque without having to rev the hell out of it. Had a friend that had the 500. He trimmed the back skirt of the pistons up to move the power band up in the rpm range. Bike had no power until around 5000 rpm, but when it hit 5 you better be hanging on tight. Thing was dangerous though with no low rpm power on the street. Bought a CBR900R in 1995 and it’s power band reminded me of my buddy’s 500 to some extent. The CBR was a way better machine in terms of overall handling. 20 years of R & D really pays off.

Extrapolating the original H2 HP with the displacement ratio gives 123HP. Hitting this figure shows that he didn't just add 2 cyls for the show, it actually performs as if the engine came out of the factory like that. Allen's builds have always amazed me and his recent "how to" series is jsut unbelievable. Hacksaw, tin snips.. incredible.

Yeah when Allen builds these crazy bikes starting with a factory engine, he builds it up like they the manufacturer themselves would've, so in this case, no extra porting, no higher potential expansion chambers, no crazy carb work...he wants it exactly how it "would've" been made.... trust me, I could only imagine what Allen could produce if he actually built this 5cyl 2t into something more monstrous than it already is 😅 Next I want to see his completely hand built RC374 on a Dyno.... I love 2t's....adore them...but I'd love to see what that RC makes 👌

He is a genius, and just casualy sticks a few extra cylinders on just about anything. If you like a mad bloke in a shed, try Colin Furze. Ordinary plumber that has made a hover bike, underground bunker, 107mph dodgem car and too many other things to mention. He even made a 2 stroke bedside lamp for the real man, saying that real men find electric lights too soft and easy. Everything Allen Millyard makes has no real practical purpose, he just makes any bike much more desireable. Do we want one of his creations? Silly question, we all want one.

Walter Kaaden the race engine designer for MZ worked with little more equipment than Allen. Kaaden. Iron curtain East Germany was starved of equipment by the Russians. He struggled to get decent ball bearings. Kaaden understood gas shockwaves and invented the exhaust expansion chamber and the piston boost port. During the 1950s he was getting more than 30bhp from 125cc. Nobody knew ho he got so much power. Then his race Rider Karl Degner defected and took a bike with him. Suzuki bought his services and the bike sort of came along too.

He brought it back down some how but My stomach was in My throat just watching. I went out and bought a nice 1970 Triumph 500 Daytona because I hoped to live until My 60's and still be riding. Still riding now but had the Z1 which was tame compared to the H2 , that was one wild machine to be very respected and not for beginners. Thanks for the video, those 2 strokes were great machines from a bygone era.

It got horrible mileage but would stand straight up at 70 mph! Stock would not even lift the tire. Today at 69 I just finished a restore on a '77 naked GL1000.

@@rondye9398 Hi Ron, your speaking My language. The 70,s bikes were the best in My opinion to. They have some great tech nowadays but no good all around bikes like back then. To specialized now and you end up changing everything, seats, bars, pipes, etc and they still don't have the flavor of the old UJM,s. I like the idea of going to Mikuni's and a Kerker for that Honda. A Kerker in the 70's was about $200-$300 now about $1000. The Mikuni' probably big money to. I like the Mikuni's better than the Honda Keihnin carbs (spelling ?) but might go to that 4 into 2 carb setup I have been reading about. I also had a GL1000 Honda with the old Vetter fairing and hard bags, good bike but down on power, needed a rebuild. I think some of the dealers had a 803 or 825 kit for the 750 way back when. I don't have the know how to shave flat head ford liners and install 350 pistons or cam work just looking to put My 72 CB750 back together basically stock and ride. Not looking for a show bike. Good luck with the GL1000 and your other bikes Ron. Take care, Steve C.

Old two strokes have a narrow power band. Curt was confirming the tachometer was synced with the dyno with the thumbs up. The power comes on suddenly at about 5000 RPM and peaks at 7500. No rev-limiters in those days. Allen built a custom 5 points system just for this bike which can be seen in the first video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGeVoXaompl_nM0 Cheers, Kirby

As a life long 2 stroke builder and racer, the mention of 927 made me say, "finally someone who knows their shit!" I would encourage these dudes to slap on some expansion chambers and some porting/polishing and perhaps indulge into some lectron carbs, or maybe a fuel infection setup and witness some extreme performance gains! I cant say enough about 927. I like mine about 40-42 to 1 most days.. Stabilize when cold. Good shit.

Back in the late 70's early 80's a mate and me helped assemble a rolling road machine for a lad's Norton shop , Roger the shop owner gave my mate the opportunity to put his 850 Commando on it 118 mph shredded the back tyre a brand new Avon what a racket , got it replaced but didn't tell them how it happened .

What a fine job made by Mr. Millyard. I will love to see/hear Mr. Guy Martin from Lincolnshire UK drive this artwork on Isle of Man. The sound of the engine is something I will never forget; in my opinion, it is a little like the first time hearing a Porsche 917. Yes of course it doesn’t sound the same, but in both cases, it sounds like pure racing.

I love it!!!! Also Allen gets a clip of vid sent to him and can tell it is slipping the clutch hahaha.....what a dude! Jordan engineer is an engineering god in his own right yet Allen can hear the thing is just a little bit off. That engine with 98 pounds of torque must be a beautiful thing to ride in everyday situations. Rolling on in a higher gear is a great way to ride on the road rather than a narrow powerband. 5 cylinders sounds absolutely stunning, shows what manufacturers should have been making.

Sounded great. Very brave to put that one of a kind engine on a dyno. I spoke to Allen at the last classic bike show and he was amazed at the number who viewed your last vid. He is currently building a super 6 Kawasaki 4 stroke, which I'm sure will be amazing. Best regards

Yes, I've only spoken to Allen via Facebook, he was very helpful with tuning and timing (the bike had not run for many years). Curt Jordan (Dyno guy) said it was one of the best one-off tests he has ever done. A tribute to Allen's solid engineering skills. I'm pleased to share this amazing bike with so many!

Last year on my channel I filmed him starting some of his bikes at our British Motorcycle Museum and was amazed at the interest and views on that vid. Thanks for the reply, take care and best regards from England.
