Has Allen Millyard seen this ? Seeing as he's currently rebuilding that engine

It’s the smaller engine that went in the Spondon frame, not the v8 Allan’s putting right.

I'm watching Milly's rebuild, I certainly wouldn't be boasting about designing the bag of spanners he's dealing with.

I understand what you mean, in that elements of the V8 engine were pretty crude. But it was also still at prototype stage so I think that is kinda to be expected. I thought the fundamentals of it actually seem fairly advanced and ambitious for the time. The fact that they actually designed and built a running prototype of a pretty exotic engine is no small feat.

You can see how we practically designed and built the world we live in to day, down to brilliant designers and inventors, engineers etc. This bike could have changed the biking world.... I can only imagine what this bike would be like to day, had it went through its evolution....Engineering Genius at its best!

This guy is talking about all the stuff it does, but it never did anything. Some people in the motorcycle world talk about it, others are about it. With the correct approach, any of these classic British motorcycle names could be brought back as viable companies making sensible product, instead do nothing assholes waste money and never create a worthy end product.

So much has changed since these days its amazing what we could have done back in the day, but unfortunately it was all about the money at the time, so many British projects got lifted just before they became great producers due to the guys higher up thinking about the cost to develop further such a shame! I would love to see this thing rekindled and yes arojnd the 30k mark with the power they say it could make and the front end and rear end designs put into it and modern engine design i think they could easily roll out 300 a year

Interesting video, it was a concept design, thrown together to satisfy the investors that progress was being made using their money. After watching the thing being stripped by Allen millyard, and seeing some of the pitiful engineering, design, it is obvious it was miles from being put into production. Could it have competed whith whith bikes from the far east giants, I doubt it very much, apart from the novelty of a v8 bike, and it has been done before in the past, most riders tend to put their serious money into bikes from companies which shall we say have a good consistent track record. Personally I'm watching whith great interest Allen working his magic on the nemissis, I'm sure it will run properly when he's finished ironing all the bugs out of it, calling him a genius is an understatement.
