Some fun facts - 1 - it now weighs in at 550kgs with me riding it. 2 - The pov riding this bike is wild, you can look down into somones sunroof while riding it. 3 - i think the only record it could qualify for is the most dangous bike. (Given that its the combination of an allready dangous bike with the most dangerous bicycle of all time) 4 - This channel will only ever feature full finished projects solving critical engineering problems. like, subscribe and share if so inclined :) Happy christmas all Much love

I'd just like to say I think we'd also be stoked to see not-fully-finished projects. Perfect can be the enemy of good (at least for me), and imo the process and narrative are usually more engaging than what's usually the final 10% of a creator's video that displays the polished project. Just speaking from personal experience, I get myself into a rut thinking a project is never fully "done" and I don't want that to stop you from uploading lol. Incredible work, plus the soundtrack is back-to-back bangers.

Okay fine, so when my business was being liquidated (how and why is a whole other story). I had just taken delivery or a huge job that was about 4 tones of steel just in raw material. For some reason the liquidator was going to just throw it in the bin. Not even scrap it. Which I thought was incredibly wasteful but apparently it was not worth there time. Anyways I ask him if I can have a bit of it and he said no problem. So 20 loads of cedrick later the 4 tons of steel was in my backgraden. I then later built a shed on it as I had no space not realising I would need the material out so soon. Hindsight is a bitch.

I think this is a big missed opportunity. The profile absolutely calls for a rotary radial motorcycle. Just think about it. They are incredibly difficult to start, the throttles go out of alignment immediately, they are horrifically unreliable, stray oil all over the road so the brakes don’t work, physically can’t stop without stalling, and yours would both be incredibly unstable al low speeds and have such an enormous gyroscope that it wouldn’t be able to turn at high speed. You’d have a bike with serious and fundamental design flaws preventing it from starting, stopping, accelerating, decelerating, keeping going, turning, staying upright and falling over! It’d be like strapping buttered toast to the back of a cat and dropping it. All the design flaws would cancel out.
