A trike might be a good compromise.

A mf honda bigred

Yup! Made in wood, like the real one! Can be awesome

@@Pyro60000 A harley with sidecar would be nice too, and battery, radio receiver and other "ugly" stuff could be hidden in sidecar.

I had an RC motorcycle it was pretty easy to drive just had to get it going

The low idle is caused by the large flywheel that is on the primary side that is being used to start and run it.

Put those into your.......🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wow, a 93 inch knuck back then must've been something else, especially with a blower. I had an EL replica with a "93 S&S about ten years ago and it was real fun to ride. Took a lot of people by surprise. I loved the old builders, Hunziker, Ness, Denver and Ernie Johnson were my idols as a kid. I still have the Black Gold blown 750 Honda poster that hung in my bedroom when I was a kid, those rectangular exhaust pipes were sick!

@@genefogarty5395 I rode that Ness blown knuckle for a couple years, couldn't keep it running, constantly stuck the front exhaust valve. I didn't realize at the time, I could simply make exhaust guides I couldn't buy at the time. I "nursed it" prepping it for a run, and knowing it would get ten or fifteen miles and need the valve redone. I saw the bike again and again for twenty five or thirty years. Never came close to "topping it out", way too much power for the chassis.

@@genefogarty5395 I looked at those SS engines, never could afford to buy one, but built a few. I've got a 103 STD Panhead, going back together for this summer, I'm considering reducing it to 88, for better life. Been doing an 88 since 95, for a street engine.

@@johnmcclain3887 The EL was one I couldn't pass up, got it from a guy going through a divorce for less than the price of just the engine. He was done with bikes so I got all his stuff for one price. Sounds like that pan will be a stout runner, best of luck with her!

With the few known they were looking all over for a miniature motorcycle engine as if the quality of details of a miniature knuckle-head to the real McCoy as if the idle sounds like a real knuckle-head as later Harley Davidson famous V-twins has the few know they want to get their hands on a miniature pan-head and compare it to a real pan-head.

Maybe having it break in properly would make a difference. It's not like any engine runs perfectly before break in.

Might try running it on petrol as well.

The real Harley sounds pretty much just that bad, so if the goal is to model after the real thing then they nailed it 100%. It's characteristic of the design I think.

@@8180634 Like the Harley, the design has been optimised to convert fuel into noise without the side effect of mechanical power. 😁

It needs to break in, do not go adjustment happy with these engines. Harley engines have a loping idle by nature, this is made to duplicate the characteristics of the 45 degree Harley V-twin.

Right on dude Would be fantastic

They're mass produced, Stirling makes these for 900 bucks a pop.

Definitely 😁

Thats a damn good idea! I know a million harley guys would love it.

I loved this idea until I realized that you would be making essentially a time bomb 😂

Just cut this videos audio out and play it through a speaker lol

Make it run on wild Turkey and go to bed with the fumes,.

Lol

The heavy flywheel helps with the idle quite a bit. If it didn’t have that big chunk on it, I’m sure it wouldn’t idle so low.

_"Sounds like it has about the same power as a real Harley engine"_ Don't be rude to the model engine.

It's bought from Stirling engine kits, 900 bucks.

You'll believe it when you see the price! 😄

@@mickmuzzmkmz1628 for real, $900 for this little thing

@@johnkilo3 They typically sell at auction on E-Bay for $450-550.00.

@@MarkPalmer1000 exactly, I just paid us$388 or 580 Australian, big bucks for a toy but don't care, by it now is au$1350

harley davidson v2 sound

Even in a miniature vq it'll sound like trash and farts

3.8 Buick 3800 would be killa

Stirling makes a bunch of miniature engines.

…exactly what I thought too…!?

to my ears, owning a knucklehead myself. It sounded like it was already out of timing by a pretty large margin, almost as if it was fighting itself

Ian, I have this engine & did the same as you mentioned; removed the cam chest cover & lubed the lobes & gears. No oil in bottom end. I run Coleman fuel / 3% Marvel Mystery Oil. After a little time is on the engine, i layed my engine flywheel side down, to check if blow by lube was getting to the crank. Yep, oil residue comes out the timing “peep hole” Glad to know crank gets enough lube 🤙

Dab of Vaseline maybe ?

He's built loads of engines with spark plugs?

He uses mostly glow plugs

@@ferrumignis He has a few, but most of the engines are nitro, so they have glow plugs

@@ferrumignis he didn’t build this…

Even better if you can take about 16 of them depending on if the angles right and if it's set up properly you could make a plane what do you think the Harley engine is literally it's one section of a plane engine essentially

@@borttorbbq2556 What!

@@russcole5685 yeah I don't know if it would actually work today but Harley-Davidson's the 45° twin-style motor is based on plane engines a single I'll just call it a Cell of a plane engine is essentially the twin motor and it's like 8 to 16 of them or something like that that are all put into series that get the specifically for prop planes so this is going to be like your Cessnas and such I don't know what plane engine it was actually derived from but basically

@@russcole5685 I think you could use something like a Galaxy gear oh my Galaxy Gear and then just have it so that the motors are spinning the outer ring just so you can have your prop shaft running down the center of it basically think how monster truck wheels are in Reverse basically. And yeah if you take and you put enough of those into a single layer I think you can fit something like six or eight per layer and you just start stacking those layers after three or four maybe even five layers you will end up with one just absurdly powerful plane engine

@@borttorbbq2556 I don't think any functional plane has a V32.

It’s a “Sequre ES126” I’ve had mine for a year and love it.
