I feel repressed, it is against my human rights?
Its a video of a V8 homemade motorcycle.
Looks like old Honda. Sounds nice.
do we get any info how it was made?
is it using oringal bottom end - rods sharing the same journals? ooh?!?!!
Looks good until you rev it at the lights and the inertia causes it to fall over.

is it the one thats in motorcycle news this week the guy who made it had no mechanical skills untill he started building it
Years ago I had a Moto-Guzzi Le-mans, which for the uninitiated was an 850cc V-twin with the engine rotating along the length of the bike. Until you
got used to it, going rounding corners under large throttle settings it would either sit up ,or lean over further. With that V8 engine you would
probably either sit up straight and pop over the other way or bury the footrest into the tarmac. (Think of the inertia of a fore aft crank)
Looks fun though!!
