Hehe, for shure a few of you thought it's animal-beast. Well, not a animal-beast but anyway a beast. A "standard" chopper but with a few special additions like: -4 Cylinder V-Motor -Wheels with no axis -electronic clutch Now back to texturing it. Color shemes and suggestions are more then welcome.

only suggestion I would make right up front is that the front wheel has no way of turning. No axle. And perhaps a little more clearance (not much) between the front tire and the fender. Other than that, nice machine.

oh, hell, just read your post a little better... so you knew about the axle... ok.. so how does it stay on?

Like a roller coaster wheel? Looks nice, as per your usual stuffage! 8^) Marque

Sweet concept. Air cooled? I thought there were problems with that type of drive, due to shock from bad road conditions and normal street debris? Regardless, I'd like to see a machine like that in production. Very swoopy.

Online Now!

I would think maybe not use the chain drive and go with a a shaft. also maybe extenting the seat for a rider. poser babes would love to ride or be driven. also maybe a wicked looking side car?. as is it looks great I know I could seriously use this this with the story I'm doing. I need futurisic bikes.

You should definately look at West Coast Choppers for ideas on color schemes! Jesse James builds some seriously amazing choppers much like the one you've built... and the paint jobs on some of them are fantastic!

Flames... this bike clearly needs flames incorporated in the paint job!

Awsome, now if it only would morph into a Dragon-Chopper!!!! hint, hint ;p

PSSSS Igohigh. Have you recognised the motor-styling.


TygerCub ( ) posted Tue, 03 September 2002 at 4:08 PM

lalverson, since the wheel is supported, or "cradled" by the rim, I think the belt drive is required for this type of wheel suspension. A drive shaft would require a central axis to turn the wheel. Correct me if I'm wrong, sharkey

FwTempest, couldn't explain in english the wheel-concept because it's not my birth-language. So i thought i can show it. It's simply that the break-assembly has on each side of the wheel some tube-bearings instead of normaly used bowle-bearings for wheels with axis. Those bearings where used in each cars and airplanes wheels and produce a better ruling comfort on highspeed and lower noise. Lee, cool idea about the sidecar. Will go back to modelling and do one. Silverstar, there's a paintjob planned which has black as base and flames in yellow to orange. TygerCub, yeah, it will end up as with any Chopper with a hard-drive. A friend sayd a few days ago: "Ass, Gas or Grass. Nobody rides for free."

Here's the first Poser-render with a Texture added. I'm not really happy with the mapping especially on the front-fender so have to go back for this. Also the headlights where swapped, but they're a separate group and can be hidden while placing others there.

I think it need to be nail polish red.


FWTempest ( ) posted Tue, 03 September 2002 at 7:41 PM

cool.. thanks for the info.. I can see now how that would work.


igohigh ( ) posted Tue, 03 September 2002 at 9:06 PM

Psssst, sure did, right away ;D Slick wheel concept!! Bitchin paint job!!! I know it aint the same but your making my heart break for my old 1961 Triumph (me first ever true-love in high school) lost in my first ever accident. Her name was Angie.
