Allen Millyard  is a Brithish motorcycle genius or Madman 

He takes old motorcycle engines and increases the number of cylinders by cutting up the heads and cases and matching parts , 

he has made his own roller crank from scratch , cut down a couple camshafts in sections and welding them back together , welding heads and crankcases  and more 

all this in a small home "Shed" workshop

Really interesting work he does with some of it.  He just sealed the water jackets on his internally so that despite it being a single welded cylinder head, its acting as if it is three separate cylinder heads.

I had to look it up, 'cause I couldn't remember the name for sure, but I have seen his 5 cyl Kawasaki "triple" in person. Started life as a 3 cyl., 2-stroke 750. Also saw his Z1 900 that was now a V8. Both were made from bikes I was into, and both looked like they came from the factory that way. He is amazing!
