Valor Hoverbike

[-zenn]

Well, it's been like the third week in a row since it's around 30°C and don't really feel like building a lot, nor do anything else for that matter. But I just had to do something with this scooter I got my hands on a while ago, though I'm not a fan of 3rd party items, it's really good. One point of critisiscm; please make a hole on the back stud, like the other two on the scooter.

Anyway after sketching away and doing some mock-up stuff; it ended as a retro-future hoverbike.

Valor; a hoverbike inspired by 'Radio Kootwijk'.

Comments and critisiscm welcome.

I it, especially how you used a custom Vespa scooter chassis as it's base.

In my opinion this is one of your best hoverbike creations ever.....Brick On '-zenn' !

Fantastic! Every city of the future should be bustling with these.

Now that's a scooter!

it just screams zipping around

Really really nice build in such a small space. Fantastic piece usage all around. The firehose in particular I thought was fantastic.

What's that little flex tube thing from the back engine? a bley whip? haha it's so great I can't even figure it out.

Thanks guys! Si-MOCs> the hose is this part, but modded.

Wow, I have two of these scooters but had no idea they could be this awesome. What is the windshield from? I dont recognize it. mind sharing hiw this is built?

[Cooper Works]

That's just perfect!!

Sweet hoverscooter! The angled detailing on the front is really cool, and the whole thing works beautifully

[gotoAndLego]

I hate to say it, but that's probably the best thing you've done. I love it. I've been planning on getting a couple of those BrickForge scooters.

The front is easy to figure out on yourself, just take a look at my other bikes they use the same method.

The back turbine engine is basically;

Insert 2x into the body + + .

I added some technic parts to get other angles and greebs on it.

gotoAndLego > Thank you. I must say I'm really fond of this one as well.

Aww thats so cute I really hope in 50years or so wee will all be going round town on these.

[brickmack]

Great job on this, certainly one of your best so far. The "eject" sticker is a really nice touch as well.

If you make something with it, could you share it? I like to see other peoples interpretations.

Nifty parts usage! Slick hoverbike!

[Hrw-Amen]

Looks like something everyones mum should be nipping about on in about thirty years or so from now!

LegoJalex, vriverajr3, Leo-J & Hrw-Amen> Thank you! Now to figure out what I shall build next...

[Plastic Brick]

It looks like a real motor cycle engine in the back, cool.

[agrof]

Very inspirating! :)

[The Blue Brick]

I agree with others, this is my favorite so far. I love how it is a vespa too.

[Legonardo]

Too cool

[Puck]

Very, very nice! Great job!

[Hammerstein NWC]

Unbelieveable tekkers!

I love the way you have managed to incorporate the lines of the scooter with so many otherparts. It's seamless!
