im working on detailing the wheels as we speak too

hey, the wheels are based on hub motors, give it a google. they are in use in some products out there. Magnetics and electromagnets would also give a cool concept, could PS some magnet waves in there , but these are based on hub motors. I don't design motorbike normally this was a experiment and to see what concept i could generate to give it a futuristic/urban look

No PP as yet.

Just working on a nicer graphic for the side and sorting some reflections out, more post be up soon

ok shall try that, thought about it tbh with the wire. and i have a site. http://www.kevinboultondesigns.com thats my link, and i have my portfolio on Coroflot.com too, getting my name out there
