Here is the first picture of my custom "MagicFlyer". Not quite finished...will have an electric hub motor as well. 35+ mph...100+ mpg Logo is "WINGS" with "Magic" overlay. Almost finished! Not bad for an "old" guy! (that's not me...I'm taking picture) |

Wrong, my friend. Due to my balance issues, after being paralized, I needed it low and back. But, thanks for noticing. |

Wow.I admire youre ingunuity.
Just curious as to the law regarding its use.Here in the uk if you add a motor to a push bike it becomes a moped and therefore needs to pass a daytime(as no lights) road complience test be registered and taxed.The user would have to be atleast 16 pass their CBT and get insurance.Unless used on private land only of course. Oooo nasty with the bike smash.i do enjoy a blast around the countryside ive been lucky to only have one lowside crash slid for about 40ft so pleased i wear leathers.

Oh, lol, i didnt notice the engine! You should use an electric.
 dont kill off your seagulls.  Oohh.... So the logical thing to do is to build another motorcycle?  Probably shouldnt have been riding a bike at 116 years old anyways! See you in the skies!

Pretty awesome, fantastic job!
What kind of bike did you have before the accident? I've always been partial to Kawasaki Vulcan 900's.

It will have a front hub electric motor as well. I am currently working on the solar panel, battery, controller setup. As far is my age goes, you are only as young as you feel. And I don't feel a day over 135. |

Seeing as how your duck loves my sea-gal, I think we can arrange something! |

You'd be surprised what a small engine can do. |

Congrats!
Wait, it's a bike, how can it let you walk? 40 miles an hour! That's awesome! You should sell those things! See you in the skies!

No, RADAR I had to learn to walk before I could ride. The bike was a long term goal. Proof that with a positive attitude and hard work anything can be accomplished. The bike provided inspiration. Oh and by the way have you had any luck solving my [e]nigma? Another little hint for you, RADAR, remember an [e]nigma is "mystery wrapped in a riddle". |

Oh, i thought the bike was purely motorized. I thought the working pedals were for legal reasons, not for actual use.
That's really cool, tho! have you tried riding a bike before this? How long did it take to get the hang of it again? See you in the skies!
