I have some photos of a 5 Cylinder H-1 (about 850cc's) that I saw at the Vintage show last year at the MN. State Fairgrounds. I've tried repeatedley to load them into photo bucket...but it's a no-go. DANG! Anyway, I searched under 5 Cylinder and didn't find anything, so maybe it hasn't shown up here before? :?:

It's in my friend Leroy's collection right now, sitting beside one of Allan's 4 cylinder Mach V's. He said I can ride it this spring if I want.

I never cared for those Red Headlamp brackets :think: Allen built it for Clive in Tennessee . . . . At the moment Allen is building a H1 with FOUR Yamaha LC cylinders . . Way too cool . . .

The info that was on an info sheet next to the bike said that only 4 were made by the Engine rebuilder from NoDak and one was on display at Barber, so it must be a permanent piece? I don't know how it would corner with all that width...but I'll bet it goes pretty well in a straight line!!

Theres been quite a few made, many were just engine builds, but THAT bike is without doubt the One that Allen built for Clive
