Quick look at further extensions of the exhaust pipes and then some roaring down the road!
You really must turn up the volume and bass to enjoy this!
Alas, she is really slipping the clutch again under hard acceleration, inspite of heavier clutch springs, must fix this next to feel her go 100%!

  • Thanks again guys for your wonderful comments! Watch the videos of the bike with the mufflers on it- quiet but very vintage!

  • dude you just have to find a way to build complete engine units and start shipping them and finding dealers in different countries i will be the guy to book your first dealership in india and promise to sell them like crazy i am a major fan you work buddy...... you are a engine god now for all the royal enfield bikers out there india will give you a super warm welcome

    how do i get in contact wid you wud love to talk big buisness

  • Thank you thank you thank you!

    Greatly appreciate your kind words!

    Am working on the website right now with info and details for interested enthusiasts.

    Stay tuned!

  • Hello again and well done!This is great work. Couple of questions if thats ok. What bigend are u using??? Floating or roller? Standard Rods? Not trying to steal any secrets, just really interested in how you did it. It would be awsome to see u building these to order, maybe even in a bigger guise. Like by using a longer stroke crank and bigger forged pistons to build a 1224cc, can you imagine??!! How hard would it be to build a motor with the AVL geared pumps for added oil flow and reliability??

  • Thank you very much!

    Right now, its all stock big end (made a new crankpin though for two conrods). But, all the available upgrades- alpha roller big end, steel rods etc. can be installed if desired. Geared avl pumps should be quite doable too- the casting allows that. John Hutchings in the UK does 450cc conversions for the 350, so a 900cc Musket is my next dream. Should be able to keep up with Sportsters, hmm? Ofcourse, the frame would be further strengthened.

  • Ah, just read your introduction to this post and I see you've already tried the heavy springs. I'm sure you'll have done it already but de-greasing the friction plates with a thinner and breaking any glaze that might have formed on the plain plates with a quick rub down using fine emery cloth might give a little extra grip. Cheers!

  • Hi!

    Did exactly that when I just got her running, then tried new plates too- I think she just needs more friction surface area. On the one late night long ride, the engine was revving free of the clutch when I maxxed the throttle at about 140 kmh!

see all

  • Great sound

  • Great Job Dude ;-)

  • Wow!!!....Enfield is Harley's cousin from across the ocean.

  • I juste LOVE that noise

  • That's a very nice machine and I've no doubt you could easily sell as many as you could produce were you to start commercial manufacture. It looks like something Redditch might have produced and I'd love one, although I will have to wait for a lottery win.

  • am doin d same thing but am not able to get the crank case set!..wud u mind helpin me out man!?...

  • That's great! Wonderful sound.

  • @winsomniac

    100% Legendary

    I would be the first to buy one of these if you were to put any on sale.

    If you wanted someone to sell them for your in the UK I'm your man!

  • You did a fantastic job. You're a real mechanical wiz.

  • I could hear clutch slip when you opened her up.
