        Testing seat styles. I think they were too angular. Trying for a more curvy look.

          Moving in the right direction, those thrusters could almost be magnetic types so intakes would be less of an issue, perhaps there could be an effect of different polarity 'rings' on the thruster housings?

            Some kind of anti gravity something or other. πŸ˜‰

            No "jet" thrust of any kind. Pure sci fi. πŸ‘

                While I appreciate the intent, and that is one damn cool looking bike, I actually find it a bit overwhelming.

                  O.K. maybe not so overwhelming after all. πŸ€“ (I looked up other views of this bike)

                  Look for a major update this weekend.

                                  Updated seat. What a pain that was! Minor change in the top cowling. Detail added to foot pegs.

                                          Turn it into a render challenge then and who knows you may love the results.
