In the video below you will see the custom bike built by Englishman Allen Millyard in his suburban garage in Berkshire and using a 8.0-litre V10 engine from a Dodge Viper. Don’t ask me why? It has been clocked at 207 mph during a test at the Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. And if you wonder, it’s fully road legal in the UK, having passed all construction requirements and legal regulations. My readers in England can see and hear it (will be started twice a day) at this weekend London Motorcycle Show. - See more at: http://cyrilhuzeblog.com/2016/02/11/the ... FZO7G.dpuf

I've been following him for a while. He is a genius, not just a Boy Genius™, but a fully fledged brainiac

Re: The 207 mph V10 Powered Motorcycle
I saw this beast at the Motorcycle show in Birmingham - not the Alabama one it's insured for the road by Carole Nash, specialist insurers - who by the way, took 4 weeks to get back to me on a quote for my SB and it was too high.
It's a long way from the seat to bars and if I recollect properly has a single sided swingarm. Guys around me were saying how do you get a V layout car engine in there? I said Boss Hoss have been putting V8s in there for decades. These were seasoned bikers (not young ones) and they hadn't seen a Boss Hoss in the flesh!
You've got me thinking Rick, as I live exactly 9 miles from the Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground and it's owned by a petrolhead, mmmm. It was a US nuclear bomber base with B-52s and has a very long main runway.
I might just pop round there one Spring day and try to get through the tight security and ask the Man if I can blast down his runway.
ps this weekend is sorted already on affairs of the heart and my other half of 34 years would not appreciate me slipping down to London

That's not the first Viper engined bike we have seen . A few years ago there was a guy that modified a Boss Hoss frame to fit a Viper engine and it was a lot more attractive than this bike . Maybe not a well engineered as this bike but sure looked better .

Ive also seen this bike at a local bike show and outside a caff while at the TT on the Isle Of mann a couple of years ago. The man is a legend he has grafted many bike engines together to create some stunning V bikes. His Kawasaki Z 1.8 has to be seen. The link shows some of his other creations.

Allen Millyard is unassuming guy,we talked a way back,The UK don't have a max BHP limit ,So anything goes as long as the lights and emissions are tamed up a bit.Allen talks about his projects in a very low key way,i ythink some folk didn't believe his plans.
Rick thanks for showing bro,i need a fix of Cajun dancing again soon

I didn't see any examples of durability on that video, no full on tire smoker like a Boss Hoss will do.

I had never heard of him before seeing this post. This man is beyond amazing with what he can do!! Take the time to look him up and be blown away !
Re: The 207 mph V10 Powered Motorcycle
Boss Hoss dealer in Louisville built 2 with a Viper motor. I saw one for sale awhile back for around $110,000. If I remember right building these two put him in a negative cash flow and he went out of business. Had to be around 2003.
