Yes. It's another hover bike. I told you, I was in the anti-gravity mood. ;) Original kit bashing, using parts from the same kit and minor other parts to create this beast. The engines are electrical shells and many small bits and pieces ranging from bits from other kits. The bike used was the Tamiya Hayabusa 1/12 kit. Majority of the parts used on the bike were taken from the same kit. I just repositioned them.

Seriously - I don't know how you achieve such amazing results every time. You should write a book about how you imagineer things like this. I'd read it for sure
Not sure I'd want to ride it though - it looks like you would burn your feet off from the exhausts :o

The engines would extend and that's why you have shields in front of where your feet would be placed. ;)
