  1. Cool! Sadly I missed the boat. nearly $60 Aud for one on ebay... Then perhaps James May. He dis build a lego house after all, and seems to love lego!
  2. Thanks guys Added to my bricklink wanted list.
  3. I can't remember where I found these photo's. They are of an awesome 80's MOC, complete with custom stickers - not by me, I wasn't born.
  4. Can you please tell me, what is this purple part with your finger on it? It looks good for a Streetfighter headlight, like this
  5. You did well to use the shock absorber as front suspesion. Also, there is nothing wrong with purple and yellow
  6. "A rap-rock band with a DJ? somebody tell this band what year it is." -Nathan Explosion Cool tundratank though.
  7. It is. Just don't print reproduction Lego
  8. Awesome, I love it when people do this sort of thing with lego! Related, the rings in this image actualy mech together and spiral inwards. It is very interesting to watch! http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2012/12/20/is-your-imagination-future-proof/
  9. Cool as. Reverse trikes are fast! Have you heard of scorpion motorsports? Hond CBR 600 and 1000 powered reverse trikes with F1 style front suspension
  10. Count your blessings, you should probably buy a lottery ticket. Have you commited any deeds for the greater good of mankind lately?
  11. A halftrack, cool! Which end is the back? The tracks...?
  12. So, I designed it, spent 200 or so AUD to get all the pats, and sadly it doesn't work, for a wide variety of reasons. Mostly, the power functions parts are too heavy, and the XL motor is too weak. Also, the speed controler does not allow the fine inputs required to steer a motorcycle, nor does it have much range. In the near future I will try to design a bike around the RC buggy parts. With they're radio control and lighter weight, I hope for more success. This bike is sitting on my shelf, 90% complete, so I will just show you these LDD screens. I don't have a camera, either!
  13. This, coming from the man with the astronomical post count! I won't be spending any more money on lego for a while yet, I have a real bike to maintain, too.
  14. Sweeeeet! Just to clarify, you mean the RC buggy reciever unit right, not the Power Functions Servo motor?
  15. Ha! I knew you had some faith of possibility in the whole idea. I hope so too, it would be a world first to be proud of, even if it's apreciated by relatively few Please, if you could make the time to photograph a buggy reciever from a few angles (top, side, front, rear) with some liftarms attached for measurement, I really would appreciate it.
  16. Very clever truck It looks like a monster truck with the PP tyres and the flag on top
  17. Aye, that it does! The grey axle hole at the front is the steering, and apparently, it has 7 steering positions ( 3 left, 3 right, and straight) with 30 degrees (or so) total rotation each direction. Sariel, I certainly won't negate your advice and coments... but don't write me off as a dreamer just yet. Do you really think it is impossible?
  18. Aren't you the negative nancy I bet people said similar things to Eric Buell when he said "I'm going to build a 180kg motorcycle around that Harley motor." 13 studs width with the 12 stud diameter streetbike wheels puts it spot on with the proportions of that honda goldwing posted above. 171 grams is about 50 more than PF IR reciever, servo and AA battery box combined. Not to mention the weight will be much lower down, with all the batteries at the bottom. Furthermore, the unit is just 13 or 14 studs long, meaning it would fit between the wheels of my superbike. It will of course be a few studs longer with front and rear suspension. Don't forget just how big the streetbike wheels are, 12 studs total diameter, 3 wide with the front tyre and 4 wide on the back. As for the Gyro's, I was rather mistaken, as I meant to ask the question about "flywheels".
  19. Damn! It would have been useful. The second from last piece is awesome, I have used it to design some motorcycles in LDD, I can't wait to get some.
  20. Liftarm, 90o bent 2 x 4 (Maybe 2 x 4.5?)with perpendicular pin hole, and plate, 1x2 with technic pin hole and rounded top. Both from new "Spider Man Spide Cycle Chase" Clip with bar hole (It is under Technic in LDD) Also, is this double clip an official lego piece, or aftermarket? (circled in red)
  21. Looks like fun I like the white colour scheme!
  22. That is not the RC reciever unit I was reffering to, but the much larger unit from the "racers" i believe, the "dirt crusher" and such. It weighs 388 grams, according to bricklink. This is the one I wish to use, from the Supersonic Rc / Rc Race buggy. A much more acceptable 171 grams. It has the steering motor built in, with an axle hole at the front for output. EDIT: And many usefull pin holes for building around. It's steering motor, I am led yo believe, has finer control than the powerfunctions servo motor.
