There's a guy in the UK that has done several like this (probably him) eg 8 cyl Z1600, 24 cyl 2 stroke from S1s, blah blah:gob:

That's what I thought too... but look at the detail. The cabling to the clutch cover, fuel tap to RHS carb hose etc. Not quite convinced either way, the practicalities of it defeat me, how you'd actually build that (if it exists).

doubt it, there's some right clever bastards out there (I'm not one of them) and there's been a few similar bikes built in the past


Four cylinder 1000 cc H-2's were known to exist, but the most common bikes to be modified were the S series, with 5 to 7 cylinder models being built, and at least one "V-6" (two three cylinder banks feeding into a common transmission). More of a machinist's skill exercise than a practical development, they were still a popular modification in Europe

I've seen articles on the 5 cylinder bikes

I think he also made a 48 cyclinder 2 stroke from many KH250s. I had a pic somewhere ... dunno if it ran.

That would be Allen Millyard. Awesome engineer.

Is it my poor eyesight and imagination or is it labelled '666'? (see kickstart)

And does the bike's concept come from this:

- "if man is 5, and the devil is six, then god is seven (cylinders)" - Pixies

The middle digit isn't a 6. Looks like 606 to me.

Talking of the kickstart, is it my imagination or would it foul on the footpeg on one side, and the engine block on the other?

If it's like my bike, then the footpeg just folds up. If that is true then there's plenty of clearance, look at the angle on the starter?
