Speeder bike for Real?

　　I don't know about you, but I went nuts over the speeder bike when I saw "Return of the Jedi" I wished there are such speedy cool hovering bikes for me to ride. I guess I was not the only one, a mechanical designer in Australia, Chris Malloy has been working on a hover bike quite some time after he gets off of work. His hover bike, which will be tested in a few month, houses a 1170 cc 4-stroke engine delivering 80 kW driving two ducted propellers and possess the ability to reach an estimated height of more than 10,000 feet and reach an indicated airspeed of 150 knots (278 km/h or 173 mph).
It is still in the process of development, and Malloy loves to hear from other engineers with experience in computational fluid dynamics willing to volunteer their expertise to help model changes in the design and cut down on the amount of empirical testing. Anyone interested can contact Malloy via the Hoverbike website.

Electric trike- powered by BOSCH

The EX trike, designed and built by Nils Ferber, Sebastian Auray, Ruben Faber and Ludolf von Oldershausen. Using two 18-volt-screwdrivers as engines, the "EX" accelerates its driver up to 30 km/h! With a frame inspired by a bare skeleton complete with visible organs, the EX’s drive components are mostly constructed from modified bike parts, while the frame and unique spine-shaped joint used for steering were custom-milled on a CNC machine.

"Excentricity is defined as a deviation from what is ordinary or customary. To match this definition we couln´t just modify an existing vehicle but had to start designing something new from scratch. The result is a completely new driving concept: The driver lies headlong on his three-wheeled vehicle and accelerates the "EX" with sprawled out arms up to 30 km/h.
Eccentrically is also how the steering works: A specially developed joint tilts the back wheel and leans the driver´s weight dynamically into the curve.
The driver controls the vehicle with brake and gas handles and by tilting the back wheel with its body"

Turbo Spoke

Well, we talked about Sound racer, which makes your vehicle sound like a racer or a muscle car. I found this toy, somewhat equivalent of that to bicycle.

Turbospoke is a complete exhaust system that fits to any bike and makes it look and sound just like a real motorbike. Turbospoke is based on the old 'baseball-card-in-the-spokes' concept, brought right up to date. The realistic engine sounds are created using long lasting plastic cards, a clever sound chamber and an awesome megaphone exhaust pipe which really amplifies the sound.

Turbospoke is the ultimate upgrade for any bike! Don't be left behind, get yours now!!

I think I might enjoy it for a while like I am a 6 years-old, but it might get old relatively soon...

It is about 15 bucks at most of places if you are interested. It isn't bad of price if this thing makes you pedal as hard as you could to get the sound of revving motor.... I think it is perfect product for those who gotten DUI but like to pretend you still have DL.- FACT: You are not allowed to ride even under 50 cc scooters if you have gotten DUI and your license suspended. Operating 49cc scooters still requires DL.

We could install this on a small 4 cycle bikes and confuse the shit out of people.

Leave home without it?

H.E.R.A. Trair II

It is a weapon conversion kit from H.E.R.A.

Pretty neat huh? Kinda geeky, though....

I had an air gun when I was a kid and it came with bunch of different barrels and grips to customize. Looked somewhat like this kit...I loved to play with guns.

I accidentally shot my brother once with it. He cried so hard and I felt bad so I let my brother shoot at me. It was extremely painful that tears came out of my eyes automatically.

I have never shot at living thing ever since.
