To anyone who reads this, I am a Total Noob when it comes to Cars & Motorcycles...
It has always been a dream of mine to have a Motorcycle, if there are any Anime-Fans among you, I'm sure you know of "Akira", one of the most Iconic-Anime ever...

I've come to the decision, that I must have a Motorcycle like "Shotaro Kaneda", like any Vehicle-Mod it will cost to attain the sought after Form...
What I'd like to know is what is a good Model Motorcycle to use as a "Base-Design" to build-upon...?

Also if possible, could you give an Estimate of Your suggested "Motorcycle-Model"...?

Most of those Kaneda Bike's are nothing but props, you really can't use those things as a motorcycle. And even if you can get one running, it won't have the same performance that the real one has. I remember in Japan there are contests people trying to mimic Kaneda's Bike but with butt-ugly results.

...yeah I've seen those too... stare
I'm not saying it has to be an exact-copy... sweatdrop
Just of similar, but Functional-Design, and I'm not expecting "Super-Charged High-Performance", just Quality... rolleyes

Actually I like to Tinker-Around, I'm sure, I'll be able to do it, I just need a "Base-Design"...

Actually I have a few Ideas myself...
...so far, I'm thinking the (Fogive me, Total-Noob) Steering-Shaft? Thingy?, should be something like that on a "Chopper-style"...

For that Mounting of the "Steering-Shaft?", I'm thinking I could install a "GPS-system" or maybe Computerize-something, just an Idea? I really need to learn more Terminology...
