Le Dan is the name of the builder,

He also built a V twin, like a CX,

he seems to work from a shed at the side of the road,

I think it is somewhere in the far east,

Worth exploring his history,

A worthy colleague of Allan Millyard

The word amazing is used far too often in modern language - but that is truly AMAZING.
Best thing I've watched this Christmas!

Is there a second video for finishing it off? As I can't see one

All clever stuff.

But not sure what the solution would be to running four separate cylinders heads with presumably just one camshaft.
Is there an obvious answer I'm missing?

Or maybe that's why we can't find the second video for finishing it off.


Motorcycling is Life, anything B4 or after is just waiting...
