This is a custom built single seat pulse car or lite star look alike. I built it from a 2007 Honda helix 250cc liquid cooled scooter. It is still classified as a motorcycle. only one of the side pylons can contact the ground depending on which way you lean when stopping or starting. Once moving it balances on the two main scooter wheels. It is fully street legal and licensed. It has all the original scooter equipment except the head lights...I ran duels instead of the original single. The steering works much like a ZTR and make for a comfortable ride with you arms at your side. The grips fold up and down when getting in or out. It has a full recumbent seat and normal gas and break pedals. The canopy opening can be removed for warmer weather or put back on to ride in cold weather. I have some build documentation. I call it the ALUMICYCLE. as it build from aircraft parts and skinned in 6061 T-6 aircraft aluminum. search litestar, autocycle or pulse car to better understand what they are and why they are legal and classified as a motorcycle....the original pulse cars are very rare and costly if you can find one for sale, so I built my own version. I am 5'8" and it fits me perfect you could be a little taller and still be fine but if your 6'3" just figure on driving without the canopy unless you want to make a taller one which would not be difficult. there is a video of it in action on utube just search "Paul gyroman" This is a head turner everywhere I go be prepared for bombardment at the gas station!! this is a unique one of kind motorcycle and in part resembles a jet and feels like your in a jet fighter in the cockpit. It could even be used in a sci-fi movie.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box
Mon, 10 Dec 2012A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show. On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca. With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem. When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season. We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!
Nissin ABS Modulator Recall Explained in NHTSA Documents
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Earlier this month, we published news about an issue with certain Nissin anti-lock brake system modulators that have been connected to recalls in Canada and Japan from Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki, with the possibility of it expanding to further models and manufacturers using the same component. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has now released documents from American Honda’s recall of ABS-equipped CTX700 and CTX700N that shed some more light into the issue. According to the documentation, a manufacturing error may have resulted in Nissin ABS modulators being contaminated with aluminum chips.
