- In this video I am getting the RC374 ready for a track demo (short carpark track) at the Sammy miller motorcycle museum in the New Forrest UK. I remove the fairing to clean the clutch plates and show how I made the aluminium and Titanium fairing screws and a little look around behind the fairing. There is a short running clip at the end in first gear but hopefully its gives an idea of its sound Thanks to Tracey, and Matt (www.altomedia.co.uk) for the riding clips.

It would be funny if Mrs Millyard had a baking channel on CZcams and then during a video went outside to comment on Allen doing bike maintenance in the garden.
That'd be great maybe one off special episode! Food for thoughts there, mr Allen.
picture this, Mrs M is baking a cake, sees the mixing bowl has done a runner, looks in the front room to find Allen washing bike parts in it
I thought that's what it was.
Brilliant ! :)
@@johniksushibar165 I reckon Allen is far too clever to get caught that easily. Probably waits until she visits her sister in Land's End.
Brilliant, I don't know any other CZcams channel where you have a mixture of motorbikes, baking, and wildlife, interesting and entertaining, thank you...
And a mechanical toy to boot; how did you forget Charlie Weaver?
@@SubTroppo And the lawnmower episode.
@@northlandrider5396 My first job was repairing mowers, so I try to forget them.
And machining!

“Kinda like putting grease in a grease gun” - truly the mind of a mechanical person!
Need a screw:
Me: Goes to Screwfix
Allen: I put a 25mm bar in the Chuck.
What a guy.
Ironically that was a pretty easy task to make that screw. All you need is a lathe, vise, hacksaw and a buffing wheel and a few months of machine shop classes. BTW aluminum being a soft metal is a joy to work with the titanium maybe more a challenge.
Also I forgot to add you need the die to cut the 6mm threads. LOL.
Made me laugh Dan
'We need some screws" Everyone "I'll pop down to Halfords". Alan " I'll get the lathe out..." Genius.
I never liked that screw anyway ,next time I'll make an extra one to put a side with others called spares 😀 , and then one day I will count up all the parts for sale as a flat pack and other lucky people can nock up their own bike , excellent thank you Allen much love me old son
You never fail to stagger me with your attention to detail Allen
Agreed - but then forgot to put a helmet on!
@@b3knn forgot? He's cruzing about an enclosed paddock.

Allen's (genuinely) so sure of his months of work building the bike that he's happy to properly rev it. Sign of a true engineer who's confident in what he does.
@@davidelliott5843 I imagine he's very confident of his work being very good but I still think he loves the sound that would be the impetus for revving the engine. For being under 400 CC's it does sound like a beast.
Imagine Julia Child saying on her cooking show "While we're waiting for our oven to heat up to 400 degrees, let's use our welder and our hacksaw to make a V-6 Suzuki GT750". This is the only channel where cooking tips are a natural fit on a motorcycle channel, and the only channel that makes removing screws actually interesting to watch. Loved this video!
She would have a load more viewers tuning in
As a frenchman but a motorcycle enthusiast, I already knew your name and some of your bikes of course, who doesn't ? But I only discovered your videos today and it's a revelation... I never thought it was possible to achieve this level of perfection with only basic tools. In fact it's impossible without your talent. I hope we'll see a lot of your now famous "hacksaw precision engineering" in the future. Thank you for this and the cupcakes !
We learn about bikes, engineering, manufacturing, cooking,… thanks for sharing!
... and wildlife.
Wow the sound that thing makes is just fabulous. Thanks Allen 😊
I think Mr and Mrs Millyard should adopt me, as I could watch them all day. (I’m nearly 60 but that shouldn’t affect the legal process!) It’s tiring just watching a genius at work, let alone two, but I’m willing to make that sacrifice. Keep up the fantastic work! 👍
Can’t beat a sunny day tinkering with a motorbike while the mrs. does some baking 👍🏼
Allen may appear to be a hugely talented engineer but in fact he is an alien that can create anything with basic tools in his shed, even his hacksaw can saw a straighter surface than a human can achieve on a milling machine
It’s apt that Tracey shows all the skill and attention to detail with her baking as Allen does in his workshop. Cake baking is a precise business, just like making an RC374.
A man with a so soft of a voice that carries a big stick . That thing is bad ass .
I think "he didn't make the faring screws did he?" only to follow with of course he did. Amazing work, an inspiration to humanity.
I always wince every time I see your thumb nail, the one on your hand that is, the video thumbnail makes me go yayyyyy 😊
It’s getting better now, it’s 12 months since I hit it with my 2kg hammer making the H1 crank seal bid 🙈
You never fail to amaze me with your fabulous skills and love for motorcycle's , brother it's very special that people like you excist , big up to you
I can't describe how loud that 6 is! Alan ran it indoors at Alexandra palace about 3 years ago. It actually killed the microphone on my phone. It's beyond loud
It sounds gorgeous, I've been lucky enough to see and hear it three times, and have actually touched it! (with Allen beside me)
Fantastic engineer, great guy, and amazing machines!
The only guy that can accurately cut something with a hack saw lol.
Beautiful engine sound, which I’m sure the even attendees could also feel. Now that’s something an electric bike will never be able to truely copy.
Another of my ‘most anticipated’ CZcamsrs👍😎
I love how the cooking segment was narrated just like an engineering project. Food engineering.
Reminds me of Brands Hatch in 1967 when I watched Mike the Bike ride a 250 six to victory in the 250, 350, 500 and unlimited races in pouring rain. As I recall Minter pushed him hardest until he fell off at Clearways.
Thank you for sharing a look in your mind...
Really a beautiful machine with an amazing sound!
I love the little break where you show us how Mrs Millyard makes Viennese whirls and then you show us how to make a 6mm Titanium screw; amazing engineering skills, something for everyone! Fantastic 👍
I've run out of words to describe the engineering brilliance!!!!!great to see Charlie out and about 😂 and the baking made want as well!
Oh god that noise, that noise is the stuff that dreams are made of
I find using brass rods (with different sized tapped holes in the ends) make nice mandrels for polishing fasteners. Much better for your fingertips (and also your knees, when a screw catches & pings across your workshop floor!)
Hope the Viennese Whirls came out perfect, btw!
I wish Allen Millyard was one of my next door neighbours.
And Sam Lovegrove was the other one...
An absolute master piece of engineering. That's the Viennese whirls of course.... only joking!! Brilliant bike and sounds fantastic Alan, your skills and attention to details are off the scale. Thanks for a great video.
We finally see how Allen Screws are made. Har har. Excellent video, thank you for sharing.
This series is great Mr. Millyard. Sharing your hard work is greatly appreciated!
I always was (and remain) awestruck by Allen's fantastic engineering skills...
...but I'm beginning to think Tracy's cake-baking is even better!
Wicked sounding bike. My neighbours would love to hear me coming home from work at 3am on this.
Hi Allen, what a beautiful machine.! Honestly a work of art. Great video, cheers, Alex.
i love the sound of that mate, just perfect!! cheers for the share.
That is the most two-stroke sounding four stroke I’ve ever heard. Fantastic!
That is an insult, not a compliment and simply not true because it doesn't sound like a sack of nails like pretty much all two-strokes. :)
@@worldhello1234 some do, and so do some 4 strokes do too aren't that great either.
@@worldhello1234 sorry but I do hear that two stroke rip an I like it😁
Rubbish. The Honda 6 has a very distinct sound.
That 6 sound is mesmerising but there appear to be only a few recordings of one "disappearing up the mountain" at full throttle with that haunting howl wafting on the wind, now that is truly memorable! Thank you Allan and Mr Honda for both showing mechanical genius.
Bikes, cakes, wildlife....something for everyone on here.
I've never seen anyone make their own screws before, it was beautiful to watch
This was simply terrific, what a machine! Loved the creature cameos and the baking demo too. A joy to watch from start to finish. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words 🙂
That pigeon was totally saying, "WOOHOO!!"
I bet the resident alpacas at sammy millers jumped when the RC barked into life 👍🏼
Top work as ever Allen👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
They did
Stonking stuff. Sammy Miller's is always worth a visit for the bikes, the people and of course a good cuppa with cake! Cracking day out!
Another riveting instalment in the Millyard saga, always a great watch and fills me with awe. I made my own screws just priceless.
I imagine that would be an amazing sight on a full size circuit. If Tracy is taking orders on the baking, I’m in 😁
You’re the kind of guy I wish I had for a neighbor growing up as a kid. 🛠🇺🇸🛠
The attention to detail is incredible & the sound, marvellous!
Allen you amazed me so many times. Great video 👍🇬🇧
When you cut the slot in the screw you made I noticed you used a great trick of 2 -3 blades in the saw...great trick used it many times,,, cheers Ian
good spotting, but I couldnt help but wonder why he didnt just cut the grove in on the lathe cross slide. Its already set to dead centre!
@@tigertim20 The cross slide method is an option I use sometimes but this time I wanted to show how easy it is to use a hacksaw
strangely I only used one blade, but I agree it looks like there is two
there is no doubt about it,this man is a pure genius in every way,and while we are on it the world needs a 6 pot yl1 with extra gears and alan is the one that can pull it off
Never mind that Dood Banksy You are a True Artist, Sir. I love watching lathe work I have the same Zeus measurement chart booklet, My Late father gave it to me 35 years ago.
Brilliant video Allen lathe work and cookery I love it - the bike sounds unbelievable - itv will be ditching Henry and offering you prime time
Motorcycles bakeing and wildlife ,brilliant love these vids.
I've been watching this series since freakin 6AM. its so cool!
I was just talking yesterday to a friend about my time as an apprentice in the machine shop some 60 years ago. Seeing you making the aluminium screw from start to finish was a reminder of my time on a few lathes etc over the 6 months in the machine shop. I really enjoyed the complete job making the screw, not so interested in the cake making though. I saw Mike Hailwood at Brands hatch on a 4 cylinder Honda I seem to remember. An enjoyable 15 minutes watch.
It's been a long time waiting for it to finally upload, Mr. miliard, keep the spirit, sir, if you can upload videos often
I’m sorry I have a lot of ideas for new videos but it takes me a lot of time and it’s often weather dependant.
@@AllenMillyard Yes, it's okay, Mr. miliard, the important thing is to keep the spirit in making videos, greetings from Indonesia, because I'm from Indonesia
Great advice... from a man with no subscribers... 🙄
@@FoodFestTelevision who doesn't subscribe ?
@@AllenMillyard you mean to say there’s bad weather in the U.K.? Here in Oregon it’s 100F and fires everywhere!
When your homemade hand built motorcycle sounds like a modern F1 engine.... WINNING.
Only Allen could include, cooking and wildlife in a motorbike video and get away with it 👍👍👍
Such a beautiful work of art.. kudos Millyard 👏
Love watching you on the lath making something, you make it look so easy, love your bikes.
As always your attention to detail is on another level entirely. Fantastic work 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks mate it’s a pleasure and a privilege to watch you work. 👍🇦🇺
So so clever so laid back this man is genius on another level
Another great informative video Allen! Still amazed at your mechanical prowess and genius… I always learn something. Than you!
Always next level Allen. It's never that will do. Your a perfectionist. Great watching you work your magic
Genius is a over used word , but Alan is absolutely a genius. Great video and the sound of that engine ....
Awesome craftsmanship!! Looks just like my 1/12 Tamiya RC Honda I built about 55 years ago, but so much better and wow, a lot louder!! Thanks for your teaching us how the impossible can be done. Cheers, SC Van Swearingen, PE, CEng
The same carpark at Sammy's some years ago, on a random Sunday, that Agostini rode his MV around the same carpark dressed in his italian leather jacket looking cool as xxxx. It was amazing, the Rossi of his day.
Motorbikes, cupcakes, and hedgehogs, oh my! This is a lovely little corner of the internet to come and visit. Keep up the great work!
Really these are the most satisfying videos to watch and listen to. Incredible! And that RC sounds out of this world!
Good to see your videos even becoming more diverse over time, Allen. Great stuff!
Absolutely superb Allen.
Seriously,what an incredible talent.Not everyone agrees with the honours list I know but this man should be knighted.It's "only" a replica but this bike must be priceless.Electric motorbikes will never provoke such love.
As always, Allen, precise, detailed and entertaining. And the bike stuff is good too!!
Incredible machine!! Allan you continue to be an inspiration to me. God bless you and your hands!! What a beautiful bike.
I'm impressed with your work and your dedication 👍🏻
Thanks Allen, another awesome video. That bike's a slap in the face when started. Love it
Your motorbikes will be the stuff of legend long after we're gone. Thanks again for sharing your builds with us!
fantastic Allen. Your knowledge, and expertice are amazing.
Thanks Allen for yet another superb video.
Your knowledge, engineering and craftsmanship is outstanding Allen, all your bikes are works of art
Fantastic! I love Sammy Miller’s Museum. What a place!
That bike is yet another tribute to your amazing skills and imagination. A pleasure to watch.
I really enjoy your soft voice and demeanor when contrasted against the RC374. Brilliant machine, Mr. Millyard.
Another fantastic video from you Allen. Love the workmanship and the sound of that six absolutely amazing.
Your work is so beautiful. So precise. So well manufactured. Bravo from France.
Always such a treat to see a notification indicating that you’ve uploaded a new video. Very educational! Thanks, please keep them coming.
Thank you for sharing your motocycles with us Sir. Looking forward to the next video
Brilliant video, your a brilliant engineer Allen , thanks for showing us all.
amazing work again allen.great viewing!!
Motorcycles, machine work and baking. Excellent combination!!
the sound this beauty makes is stunning. a dream machine!
Just bloody brilliant mate,,👍🏴🇬🇧
Crikey, Tracy is a clever cookie, too. The old subtraction measuring trick to save on time and dishes. Black belts, the pair of you.
I just can't get enough of these video....Keep them coming please..
This is one of my favourite bikes ever. What a build, what a sound! I get goosebumps every time I see it (Or hear it) great work
That was a unexpected Thursday bonus,thank you Allen, brilliant sounding bike by the way🤗👍🏁
These are so much fun, perfect antidote for a long week, cheers
You make such complicate tasks look easy. I am really enjoying your channel.
