Halo bike question.

[whiteninja1990]

If someone was to build a halo themed bike should it be a chopper, crotch rocket, or dirtbike. the reason I'm asking is because i was thinking(as soon as i get the money) of building a halo theme bike. It's not gonna be occ good but I'm a bike mechanic and the paint job will be done by a good painter(still got to google one near me.)
I'm thinking of a paintjob that looks like the armor plating on a warthog

deffo chopper

Whatever this thing counts as.

never seen that b4. looks epic hard. for one thing it doesn't have forks(for those who don't know this doesn't mean the eating utensil) just two swing arms. also whatever i build has to be street legal(aka blinkers, headlights, and other safety specifications determined by the dot.) it's one of those designs that look nice but could only be pulled off by someone like occ because of the massive need for machining and fabrication. I could probably make a chopper that looks similar but I would have to put in front forks, take away the side panels(engine needs to breath). and there would only be 2 exhaust(vtwin engine only has two) of course I could fab 3 but the 3rd would have to be coming off one of the others(which wouln't look good). I could wire the front blinkers in the gun barrels and the headlight would be the intake but all needed to do something like that is out of my price range.
thanks for the pic for reference though. I can use it to build a sketch off of.

I want one of those Marines bikes up there ^. I call them Extreme G bikes, due to them being in extreme g. That or Tron bikes, becuase they have the same basic concept as the light cycles. How awesome would it be to have one of those for real??

 

[whiteninja1990]

I think I might make a crotch rocket with an unusual rake. It should resemble the bike in the pic

Hey there was a marine bike in Halo Custom edition that looked like that, but the Halo CE had rockets and miahine guns. But that will be nice make sure to get a licence plate to show it off.

it would really make more sense to make a suzuki banshee or some other quad with a big busa motor in it halo themed... i mean halo actually has quads. you might even be able to pull off a canam spyder as a halo theme. but any normal style 2 wheel bike be it chopper or crotch rocket would just wind up looking kind of lame the way that 99% of OCC garbage does (unless you can pull off something like retrocorn posted)

 

[OverKill]

Its like the bike from The Dark Knight. So its would have the same physics involves to run and the motor was in the wheel in The Dark Knight

I think it would be easier to make a chopper. I think the biggest challenge there would be the double-wheel and it's rotation. But that, to me, comes up as the only daunting task in that situation. Personally, I think it'd be better to do a mongoose because it's essentially a quad with a passenger seat.

 

[whiteninja1990]

yea but you legally can't drive a quad on the road in Alabama. I want something I can drive back and forth to work

 

[OverKill]

That would be a problem, just find some big wheels.

 

[RetroCorn]

Something like this could work as a good inspiration for a chopper.

 

[whiteninja1990]

that'd work. I'd just have to tone down on the back tire. probably make a fender that runs into a sissybar. I could probably use a crotch rocket front fender to mimic the dash

 

[Anon ONI agent]

A chopper, made to look like a type-25 rapid assault vehicle (brute chopper).

 

[whiteninja1990]

that would be pretty though considering the back of the brute chopper hovers

 

[Anon ONI agent]

Well, you could see if could make the back wheel out of some transparent material. It's not impossible.

 

[firevoid]

i agree. it's possible. would still be hard though. i'm gonna be taking some college classes on motorcycle building so i think i am going to see about building these.

When you finish we should get together and play card games on motorcycles
