MortalEngines Inspired Motorcycle

so...after my https://www.instructables.com/id/Steampunk-Jetpac... i decided to build something who would be bigger and better and usefuller.

As usual, not much to say.. but a lot to show

Step 1: Cowdfunding

so i started crowdfunding....and after a while i had enough money to be able to start already....but i couldnt stop so i finished the hole project but crowdfunding is still running

Step 2: Building Main Chassis

So budget was small so i started with scrap parts wheels and metal

Step 3: Rear Drive Wheel

i used parts from my old useless escooter

Step 4: Main Woodbody

used some scrap wood i had left over

Step 5: Seat

also from scrap parts

Step 6: Upholstering Seat

i took the leather i had left from my jetpack project

Step 7: Stearing

from leftover waterinstallation and my old drum

Step 8: Front Wheel

scrap parts from gardeninstallation

Step 9: Front Body

spare parts from installing rain gutter

Step 10: Electrics an Powering

i used mainly parts from my old scooter

Step 11: Maintenance Door and Final Mounting

had left some old belt they where usefull and decorative

Step 12: Update

after my first test ride i added a headlight and installed ad added a a to permitt better balance and second function is a foot rest

Step 13: Video Ride

Wie schätzt du die Chancen ein, so etwas typisiert zu bekommen? Bin zwar aus AT, wird aber nicht anders als bei euch sein.

[Patrick LASCHETTE]

Ich denk sehr unwahrscheinlich wenn ich mir den ganzen Katalog da anschaue , was muss und darf und kann... würd das Teil nie strassenzulässlich werden ;)

[bill2009]

impressive that the little motor will push it around. does it move well?

[Patrick LASCHETTE]

yes it runs good, the old e scooter was ment to pull 150 kg so its good, it could be bether but its a fun ride not ment to be a dragster ;)

[jchoneandonly]

interesting idea and nice pics. needs a description for what exactly youre doing though if you want it to be a good guide

[Patrick LASCHETTE]

thank you i dont like to write much thats how i often just make step by step photos

[jchoneandonly]

i can understand that. its just a little more helpful if you quickly describe the things youre putting together

[jjeckerman1]

Gottleib Daimler would have been proud. The design is close to his.

[Patrick LASCHETTE]
