Absolutely. The amount of crap I’ve removed from used bikes over the years: horrible anodised levers, fake carbon, iridium screens, ‘amusing’ shock reservoirs, all in the name of ‘modification’. Give me strength. Allen’s bikes are knee-weakeningly beautiful. One day...
@@victorpelini5995 It’s incredible, isn’t it? Chatting to a bike mechanic pal the other day he was like ‘You could do any of that stuff if you had the right equipment’. You might’ve heard me laughing.
On any other day Mossy asking "are you Allen?" would be a daft question since he would be the only one on a home made multi-cylinder riding up a trail. Since there were two though... Brilliant to see these actually getting used.
@@fidelcatsro6948 Don't be too sure. Kawasaki did make a 6 pot in a similar shaped bike. Of course its really not the same at all but at a glance (and from a distance) it might not be so clear. This time Allen turned up mob handed with his mate too so there were two Millyard bikes. On a trail. Good lord imagine being out for a ride and seeing/hearing that. I would think I must have bumped my head a bit hard.
@@Chris71920 Yes but he's been about a lot longer than that. I met him at a show about 20 years back and had no idea who he was - we were just chin wagging and having a drink as you do. A few months later I was reading a mag and he was in it...
Thank the lord no music!!!! What an absolutely glorious noise from both bikes!!! Well done Sam!! Helmet, gloves and a sweatshirt!!! Ah, the good old days of pre Health and Safety nanny state nonsense!!!! Why oh why can't they make bikes like these any more. Raw and visceral. Thank you for making my day!!!😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Jacket, Jeans and Toecaps.... Always have done and always will. ( these days the jacket has armour, the jeans have Kevlar, and the boots are short motorbike ones from Richa)
The original Z1 was possibly the most beautiful motorbike ever - but the Millyard Super-Six takes it to another level of super-cool elegance, style, and utility! Difficult to compute how impressive this is - many thanks for the detailed build info, Allen A+++
Your riding videos are so good, all the different angles, sharp images and great sound with virtually zero wind noise. Just wanted to acknowledge the effort you put in to each and every video you make. And I've said it before, but to my ears the Z1 Super Six is the best sounding road bike ever. Love Sam's 2 Stroke too.
The views of the British countryside, the sound of the two bikes, Tracy's cup cakes, Charlie Weaver and the Erickson phone make up for not having the Swiss Army Knife, Greta on the phone or the Barbecue. I just wish that I could smell that two stroke on full song!
@@nicholasmooney9611 I especially like the fact that Mossy seemed to be as excited to see Allen as the rest of us would be (sorry Allen, we simply can't help ourselves from being fawning sycophants, you're just going to have to deal with it!) 😂
@@AllenMillyard Well you can be guaranteed 100% he was on the phone (or more likely, the '44th WhatsApp Group! 😂) to let the other lads know he had just met you. I can't even begin to imagine how a 44 teeth/Allen Millyard collaboration would work..... but my god, what a watch that would be!! 😆
Hi Allen,my brother in law passed away last week,funeral was last Thursday,we loved our bike rides here on the Isle of lewis,this video just bought a tear to my eye,lovely to watch a couple of mates enjoying their biking. Im going to be lost this year. RIP Johny.
Cette moto est extraordinaire et tellement belle! Elle produit "encore" aujourd'hui la même admiration que lors de sa sortie, il y aura bientôt 50 ans...avec 2 cylindres de plus. Merci Monsieur Millyard!
Overcast Saturday October 2023……. sat bored in a recliner, bikes tucked away in my workshop…… I’ve just had a wonderful vicarious ride out on the super 6 and the 666/5 🎉🥳 Todays turned out just fine……. Thank you as always Allen 🙂🇬🇧
The crackle of the two stroke unmistakeable, the roar of the four stroke unmistakeable and the unmistakeable sound of Mossy, "are you Alan?" haha! Brilliant, thanks for taking us along!
Both bikes sound absolutely fantastic. This soundtrack is a great example of why I could never love an electric motorcycle. That bloke who came over to you is famous journalist Chris Moss or the infamous 'Mossey' of 44 Teeth fame.
@@gasdive Luckily we still have freedom of choice here and it's my choice. 20 - 25K for a bike with less performance and range than my fabulous R1 derived engined Cross plane crank MT10, a bike which was under £10K new.
@@Banditmanuk you're not making a choice. You're group signaling. A choice is trying something and deciding it's not for you, but respecting fellow motorcyclists who make different choices. If you've seen your peers pour shit on something and you worry you might be excluded from your peer group, you just pour shit on it too to signal your belonging to the group. The opposite of choice.
Allen, I know you hear this all the time, but your work on these bikes you build is TOTAL genius. I wish I had 10% of the knowledge of engineering relating to motorcycle engines that you have. Fantasic videos!
As a young apprentice carpenter, 30 plus years ago we were advised that if we learned how to construct a gallows bracket we could not refuse to construct one. However, we could decline the opportunity to make one to disqualify for the still standing law! Hanging is outlawed, being pressed into making the equipment is not! Interesting how long that one has lasted! Wonder if it'd hold Boris and one of his pals?
The super six is a class act, The bark of Sam's bike brings a smile to the face, And a "cameo" from the creator of cupcakes a great video all round. Keep them coming Allen.
I love your engineering, I love how you keep your bikes original looking but the thing I love the most is that you actually use your bikes! Top video 👍
I'm in awe of this channel. That 5 pot sounds like formula one from the 90's , unreal !!! Everything oozes quality...... The bikes The editing And the engineering is out of this world !!!!
Hi Allen, OMG I've just had 15 minutes of Kawasaki heaven.! 2 beautiful machines, both sounded fantastic, and loved both the colour schemes.! Big, big thanks to Tracy (the guvnor) for letting you go out to play, and.. even left you a cake in the tin. Great video as always. Cheers, Alex.
I always had a love affair with two strokes. My last one was a Stan Stephens tuned, west Kingsdown Kent, Kawasaki KR1s fully ported and valved with machined squish bands. That thing screamed and crackled like a bat from hell and I had to have the preloaded shock full up and it would still pull wheelies when you hit the power band, what wonderful memories.
I have a ball riding my dead-stock VFR800, I can't imagine how must fun it must be to be riding something so complex and exquisite that you built yourself! Long life and good health to you Allen, you bring more joy to our lives than you could possibly know!
Days and sounds and sights like that is why I end up in tears as I miss our biking days so much. But as I have degenerative spinal condition, I don't have much choice. Keep these wonderful videos coming please Allen. Since we met at Poole bike night, I have followed your fabulous creations. Kindest regards, Dave (Rolfy)
I do love the sound that v-twins make, but I think its hard to argue with the fact that a sorted six on a bike is the finest soundtrack in biking. Cheers Alan.
I spent 4 hours making a clutch hub holder for my kawasaki 200 today and felt like master of the universe for its 3 seconds of work... then i see Allens creations.... :)
I closed my eyes and for just a brief moment it was like being there ! The noise of the engine and the squeal of the brakes, happy days ! Thank you Allen, what an engineering achievement !
The scream and the blue haze of a two stroke, I loved my T250J and GT380 Suzuki. But fancy waking up one morning and your triple had grown two more cylinders, and then find your 4 cylinder had done the same. X Files stuff of a super mechanic, not of this earth. 👽👽👽👽
😉that two stroke is absolutely mad..😝...what a joy meeting up with the Ktm group....appears they were overwhelmed. 😉.....nice day for sure...treat and all...
Greetings from Southern Minnesota USA. I loved this video. Got the chance to see some very nice countryside and some fab bikes. Three years ago I bought my first Kawasaki, In the showroom it looked brand new but i noticed 21,000 miles on the odometer. Since there were no logos on the bike anywhere, it sort of looked like a Harley Davidson but couldn't be sure. I asked the sales lady for more information on it and it turned out to be a 1999 VN 1500 G1A Vulcan 1500 Nomad.. The bike was 20 years old, wow, It looked seriously brand new. Don't remember how much I paid for it after I took it for a test ride, barely on the throttle I was very quickly doing 90 mph. I got back and said "SOLD".. Its an impressive bike to ride. I see the factory specs for a zero to 100 mph being a very rapid 5.25 seconds I ride it to live and have never opened the throttle even half way, you simply have no need to. I am sure its a bike you would love to take for a ride. keep the shiny side up.
I have a Kawasaki z750s and I would love to go riding with you. Unfortunately I'm over here in Florida! Both of those machines looking sound absolutely amazing, totally enjoyed the video!
Having just spent God knows jhow long building a chopper from bits and peices I have untold admiration for Allen's work. I know I have said it many times before but I am just astonished and inspired with each new video. Thanks, Allen and keep up the good work!!
1600's eh? Surprising it is still standing. Of all your bikes, I must say the Z1 Super Six is my favorite. Your six cylinder Honda is a very tight second. Yet any two-stroke Kaw is always a favorite. I must chuckle now, as I imagine there simply must be Kawasaki engineers who find your videos, perhaps cry out seeing your techniques but then knowingly nod in appreciation at your results. Which of course confirms to them, those bike really were that good. Thanks Allen.
Used to be a spray you could get that coated the back of the pads and stopped them vibrating against the pistons. Was de rigour for all the Zed riders who brought their bikes to the shop!
Haha I thought that- Some of those early disc brake/Calliper set ups were a pain to stop the squealing- but no way would I criticise a minor irritant when the bike is such a masterpiece.
Both beautiful creations, amazing just how right they look. The 1970s Kawasakis were always beautiful but your creations take it to a new level. Love the crackle of the 5 cylinder, now realise it was over 40 years ago that I rode a triple....
love seeing a Z1 again, i owned a Z1b in the 70s, loved the bike. countryside looks very much like as where i live in north northumberland, minus the potholes, roads round the Alnwick area are dangerous
That was Easter riding but for my ears and eyes small Christmas. That´s it, handmaded not only for museum, but for a real ride. I definetly enjoyed this video. Stroke me up :)
Mr. Millyard. This is a true motorcycle video in all respects. Wonderful videography and SOUND ! The sound of the Super-six is......well....super ! Even the sound of the Kawasaki's starter is unique. Of course the nostalgic "tic-tic-tic-tic" of the KH evoked memories ! And no one is overrevving the engine at a standstill ! Looks like Tracy is taking her day-off too ! Respect. Trinidad & Tobago.

I love the way Allen’s bikes look so factory, and so clean like he’d just picked it up from a dealership.

Even funnier when you consider the fact that the engine was cut with a saw and heated in a bbq 😅
@@victorpelini5995 It’s incredible, isn’t it? Chatting to a bike mechanic pal the other day he was like ‘You could do any of that stuff if you had the right equipment’. You might’ve heard me laughing.
@@CitroenCX yeah right 😅😅
@@CitroenCXbut he was correct, as long as you're Alan Millyard, the man is an absolute mechanical genius.
KTM crew feeling chuffed with their off-roading and then Millyard turns up on his Z1/6. Hold my beer haha
And it turns out the Z Super Six is lighter than their KTM's.
I definitely know which one I would rather be riding....
44 teeth crew.
That engine start on good headphones is delicious.
On any other day Mossy asking "are you Allen?" would be a daft question since he would be the only one on a home made multi-cylinder riding up a trail. Since there were two though...
Brilliant to see these actually getting used.
if i see an old kwaka with 6 headers even my cat knows its allen
@@fidelcatsro6948 Don't be too sure. Kawasaki did make a 6 pot in a similar shaped bike. Of course its really not the same at all but at a glance (and from a distance) it might not be so clear.

I would think I must have bumped my head a bit hard.
In my head I instantly formed the reply: "No ,I'm Father Christmas"
Thought that was Mossy from 44t 👌🏻
@@Chris71920 Yes but he's been about a lot longer than that. I met him at a show about 20 years back and had no idea who he was - we were just chin wagging and having a drink as you do. A few months later I was reading a mag and he was in it...
1. Noise - a 5 cylinder two stroke wins every time.
2. 70's colour schemes - they were all great but that brown/orange is just stunning.
Oh man I love the sound of that screaming two stroke
They do sound fabulous though the four-stroking gear shifts suggest it’s running a bit rich. Better that than too weak.
music to my ears!!
black is 2 stroke the blue elephant is 4 stroke
@UCaugSgBQVAhn5Qkcqjh4Z8g watch the whole video
Me too makes me want even more to get my RGVs back on the road.
Kawasaki Z1, the most beautiful bike ever made, looks even better with six cylinders!
Brilliant. This video was like an 80’s Kawasaki ad. Class. Beautiful sound snd images.
Love this super 6, I had a Z1000 back in 77 and Z1300 in 82 takes me back to super bike times
Thank the lord no music!!!! What an absolutely glorious noise from both bikes!!! Well done Sam!! Helmet, gloves and a sweatshirt!!!

Hi Phil! What requirements do you have there in England other than an approved helmet?
Armour under the sweatshirt...great sensible lad!
Jacket, Jeans and Toecaps....
Always have done and always will.

lol, sounded like music to me ;-)
@@carlgriffith4660 None , helmet is the only item stipulated by law .
Forget the pubs reopening this is much better and good to see a classic being ridden and not a polished ornament

Good point. We would have to watch them even if they were filmed on a potato, because of Allen, but all the extra care makes it so much better for us

The rest of the biking community dreams about bikes like Allen builds. My favourite site on RUclips by an Aussie mile.
Hi Allen, The sound of the Z1/6 is hypnotic and I am in total awe of your engineering supremacy. Thank you for sharing your ride out. 👍👍👍

Out of the few that are talented enough to make such an amazing bike, even fewer would ride them like this. You truly are incredible. Thankyou
What a beautiful day for a ride! Nothing can be better than a few hours away on a ride with your son. Thanks again for your time and videos!
We were enjoying the ride and I missed several camara angles 🙈

Thanks 😊
Two incredible machines and what a gorgeous noise!!
What else would have 2 bikes and 11 cylinders other than a Millyard family outing!? 👍👌
The Super Six parked on the mountain is a spectacular photograph. Thanks for taking me along for the ride. I had a great time.
The S3 sounds crisp and looks wonderful as does the cupcake.
Dream bikes! ☝️👍
Allen, I love that you actually ride your bikes... on gravel even. They are meant to be enjoyed that way! Nice.
Exactly I draw the line at salty roads but anything else is just fine 😎
I'm in love with the sound of that 5 cylinder 😍 dream bike, if I have to build one myself I will learn because I need that in my life
Love the sound of the Z1. What a great pair of bikes ... and scenery. England is a lovely place, indeed.
Been up to Coombe Gibbet a few times from 1976 to just recently. Brilliant view from the top.
Having owned a H2 750 and a Z1 back in the day watching your video brought back fond memories! I used to wheelie my H2 and Z1 at every opportunity.😂😂
I would be excited and pleased too if I did meet you on top of the mountain with your Kawasaki.
I have a Kawasaki z750s and I would love to go riding with you. Unfortunately I'm over here in Florida! Both of those machines looking sound absolutely amazing, totally enjoyed the video!
Tremendous
I’m going out in the garage and start my bikes just to hear the internal combustion music !!
Thank you
i feel like starting my rx115 yamaha 2 stroke too although i just reached my workplace
Great entertainment as always, both bikes look and sound amazing. Stunning views of the countryside too.

Both engines look and sound so different from each other yet both look and sound just brilliant.
A glorious soundscape as well as scenery! Happy Easter Allen and to everyone else!🐥
Slightly comforted by the fact even Allen can't find a way to stop Kawasaki brakes from squeaking.
I actually like the squeal
Used to be a spray you could get that coated the back of the pads and stopped them vibrating against the pistons. Was de rigour for all the Zed riders who brought their bikes to the shop!
Brake squeal seems to stop people from walking out in front of you much better than using the horn
Haha I thought that- Some of those early disc brake/Calliper set ups were a pain to stop the squealing- but no way would I criticise a minor irritant when the bike is such a masterpiece.
Did not know that was highest point in southern England. Lots of beautiful green lanes around there. Wonderful stuff as always from Alan
Both beautiful creations, amazing just how right they look. The 1970s Kawasakis were always beautiful but your creations take it to a new level. Love the crackle of the 5 cylinder, now realise it was over 40 years ago that I rode a triple....
love seeing a Z1 again, i owned a Z1b in the 70s, loved the bike. countryside looks very much like as where i live in north northumberland, minus the potholes, roads round the Alnwick area are dangerous
Feels like I've just been out for a ride on a nice day with two mates. Cheers Allen
Absolutely brilliant
Just reminded me of sound and feeling of rides out in late 70s/80s.👍
That was Easter riding but for my ears and eyes small Christmas. That´s it, handmaded not only for museum, but for a real ride. I definetly enjoyed this video. Stroke me up :)
Mr. Millyard. This is a true motorcycle video in all respects. Wonderful videography and SOUND ! The sound of the Super-six is......well....super ! Even the sound of the Kawasaki's starter is unique. Of course the nostalgic "tic-tic-tic-tic" of the KH evoked memories ! And no one is overrevving the engine at a standstill ! Looks like Tracy is taking her day-off too ! Respect. Trinidad & Tobago.
That big six handles and rides really sweetly.
