Wonderful to see "Alan Millard" has inspired someone to take up the craft. but you must have missed the part where AM puts all the parts in his BBQ to preheat the castings looking forward to seeing the project progress Right on Man
The Rd 350 was a technically advanced motorcycle at that time. It stood out above all it,s competitors. The Kawasaki 3 cylinder always had problems with the cooling of the middle cylinder. It is a good idea to remove cooling ribs 2,3 and 4 from the cylinder and weld the circumference closed and use it for water cooling. It,s conne be 500cc pure Wow-ness and of the charts sound. Can,t wait for the next video.
Nicely done so far, though in hindsight, I would've kept the outside left gearbox casing (milled/skimmed in lpaces on its inner face, to reduce road crud catching,( to act as an outrigger support for an extended gearbox output shaft & sprocket;.. ...since the motor as a whole isn't much wider, and the the over all looks and balance is kept fairly equal - plus having a long extension shart for the sprocket to be placed where needed, means the engine can be remounted central to the frame, and still allow spacing for the rear wheel and drive chain to be placed at an offset distance, without undue additional torque loadings upon an unsported stock output shaft would face with an adhoc offset sprocket.
I see what you were doing. My question is ,why didn't you just put the two halves together. You could have had a four cylinder insano machine, with so much less work. Of course, then the frame would have had to have been hacked all to pieces to fit it in. Still this is incredible work. There is a British guy who does this kind of motorcycle Dr. Frankenstein work. Like you, his bikes are just incredible works of art. This should be really fun to watch. I look forward to the next videos. I just watched a video on CZcams of two motorcycle guys talking about the Yamaha TZ750 two stroke race bike. In that comments section there was a guy who actually raced the TZ750 two stroke race bike. He said the most dangerous time for those bikes was coming out of high revs on a track like Daytona and closing the throttle all the way. This is because at high revs, when you drop off the throttle, you close the air and fuel coming out the carbs. Well there is oil in that gas that lubricated the engine too. He said he blew an engine and woke up in the hospital two days later. The accident ended his motorcycle racing career. He had had a great career too, judging by his accomplishments he listed. I don't expect you will ever be doing full speed, sixth gear, divebombing runs on this bike, but I am passing on that information to anyone with a street two stroke legacy bike now. Especially those two strokes without a two stroke oil tank and pump like Suzuki had. That was a fun comment section to read. Alot of love for the triple cylinder two stroke Yamaha. Great luck with the build. Subscribed.

This reminded me that 3 cylinder racing Yamaha's were first created in the the 70's, Ted Broad the English tuner and sponsor was probably the first to do so in 1972 and later on around 1976 by Ferry Bower a Dutch tuner that had a close relationship with Yamaha, there is also a present day guy who built a 4 cylinder engine : czcams.com/video/UONSUq2faRA/video.html Needless to say I admire your project well done.
I'm not sure what amazes me more 🤔 Building a 3 Cylinder Engine or someone who can use a Hacksaw 😅 A great project to build when you have time to think about what your doing. And of course enough time to cut anything with a Hacksaw 👍👍
Excellent work mate, will definitely be looking forward to seeing more of this build.I am also on the journey of making a Kawasaki 4 cylinder from two H1 500 engines here in Australia . Were are you?
This is fabulous work. Engineering skills to look up to. But I thought that two new bikes could have come into being rather than sacrificing one engine for one cylinder and the leftovers are for the scrap bin.
Ypu got the hacksaw skills of allen millyard himself, sweet project.
Nice to see someone other than Millyard doing this and no bloody cooking additions from your wife just pure engineering great work bud 😁😁🤘🤘

Do not forget the cupcaces and tea. 😊

have you watercooled one like you say, if so have you any more information links etc sounds very interesting
@@stefenmitchell4112 Tidier to fit LC350 cylinders and heads.
Awesomeness, a Yamaha Mach III Can't wait to hear how this sounds.
Thats what I call dedication, sawing the whole engine with pure hand power, props to you sir
How does this only have 4 Views this Projekt ist amazing
thank you. 1 st video! more to come.
Very interesting,quality work.

Damn I hope you put expansion pipes on it with KTM's fuel injection on it to turn it into a pocket rocket!

DIY TZ! SUZUKI 2 STROKE GUY, H2 OWNER,AND ADMIRER OF REALLY COOL STUFF LIKE THIS! TZ750S MAKE ME DROOL. GOOD JOB SIR! GEORGE
Lovely, can't wait to see the project done.
Ви молодець , продовжуте в тому ж дусі . Це має бути дуже цікавий проект.
looks great, looking forward to the next video. i wish i had the equipment, money and skill to do something like this.
Outstanding !!!!! Best bike i have ever Had , it was always on one wheel .
Hi in Australia, a man named Ron tombs roadracer,was unbeatable, I had a erly kawasaki 250 a1,you done a great job mate 👍 cheers
amazing. for whatever reason ive had this dream ever since a kid to build some kind of multi cylinder 2 stroke by myself
This is interesting. Will be looking forward to episode 2.
Vry diligently made crank case will 4sure produce raw & brute power after completion 2stroke Reigns Supreme b it micro concept r macro epic ship propulsion all achieved throughout history of 2stroke simplest form of power
Even just a baking oven is enough for preheating. Better to have some preheat than none at all.
Beautiful ! Your like the next gen of Allan Millard
Awesome ! More on that please ,its pretty cool ! Need to see the final bike running !
Awesome! I had a 73 RD350.
Dang, I have an RD350 project waiting for me in the garage..
This is awesome!
thanks so much for putting your build on youtube! i love stuff like this.
So rad!! Cant wait to see the progress on this project.
Fantastic. Keep it up.
My earliest "street bike" as an RD350.
Amazing. Well done. I'm subscribing for more. Love it.
Great job. Wish I had myself a mill
Well this is going to be amazing. Subscribed!

Have you been taking hacksaw lessons from Alan???, it's great to see more triples being born, 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great video for your first post good stuff man
I'm not sure what amazes me more 🤔
Building a 3 Cylinder Engine or someone who can use a Hacksaw 😅
A great project to build when you have time to think about what your doing.
And of course enough time to cut anything with a Hacksaw 👍👍
Bellissimo lavoro!!dai che sono curioso di vedere come procede!
Good job...
Can't wait until the next one
OK, you’re even sounding like Alan Millard……… stop it lol 😂
Absolutely awesome!
Nice job
Superb skills on show here..
Very good should have made it a four cylinder. But away still, job. i look forward to seeing the next part😊
Fantástico!!!
great work
Nice project, I would follow progress
Excellent work mate, will definitely be looking forward to seeing more of this build.I am also on the journey of making a Kawasaki 4 cylinder from two H1 500 engines here in Australia
.
Were are you?
Hell yeah bro, can’t wait to see the build. Maybe you’ll be the successor to Allen millyard
when is the next video happening, Looks good so far
This is cool.
Awesome
Instant sub.
Made it inline 4 instead of 3.
I'm thinking the same with my Suzuki GT 185
Part 2❤
Nice 👍👍
is this project stopped for now I hope not, there also doesnt seem to be any more comments being added
Check out Le Dan, he’s brilliant at this
This is fabulous work. Engineering skills to look up to. But I thought that two new bikes could have come into being rather than sacrificing one engine for one cylinder and the leftovers are for the scrap bin.
Awesome job. Would you be interested in emailing? I have some ideas that I think you'd be interested in.
Hi keep us avid watchers in the loop too please, any information and ideas are most welcome
Lotsa work Any listing to the right now? Could have simply Bought a Used Honda 600RR ?? 128 crank hp Similar weights and FAR better handling.
Or you could have bought a set of billet 2, 3 or 4 cylinder cases from Matoon Machine and been done with it.
sure then no money left to build the rest of the bike 😒😒
Why?
Why not
Because he can, and it's interesting project to get your mind thinking 👍👍
Nice copy of Allen Milliard
