GB, you can post the picture of his V twin Velo as many times as you want, it’s like Viagra for me.

The Kawasaki Z1600 V8 was my first big bike that I made back in 2000, I made it entirely by hand, with exception of a  Myford ML7 model makers lathe. It was quite a complicated build fitting all the extra bits in standard width crankcases but I got there in the end and it ran really nice. I rode the V8 to the Isle of Man TT in 2001. The V8 is on display at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum and you can see how I made it in my YouTube video https://youtu.be/sjxiHLZdSGw pic credit Roland brown

25 years ago I made this 415cc five cylinder engine at Stafford Classic Motorcycle show working on a trestle table on the main stand. Had a great time and made a little bit of noise and smoke on the Sunday afternoon when I started it up for the first time. Lucily my friend Graham was filming the event on his camcorder and uploaded it on YouTube https://youtu.be/WlfHXvV68yk

23 years ago I was busy making my Kawasaki Z2300 V12. Was certainly a challenge fitting in all the extra bits! See how I made it here https://youtu.be/FnXUx4cYdHA?si=2Qahh_r2lhF8b4D2
