'm testing my new BikeCopter we are going to hit the Market soon
Fly high with your bike, fly hight with the BikeCopter !

Just few minutes to install/unistall

Easy to park everywhere, few meters of rock are sufficent for a safe landing...as you may seen here

O take care to fill your fuel tank before flying high!

This image was taken a few hours later , same amazing spot,same POW
The bikers are still overwhelmend by the beautiful landscape, but now are also a bit worried for the empty fuel tank

So i had all time to shoot and prepare a glass frame

You need to build an aerial refueler that can do it in flight.

why waste precious hot gas ?
With The Hot Road Hot Ballon Mod, you may use to fly high

Just do what you like most ,fire the engine, make it roars, and the hot gas usually wasted will automatically inflate the baloon taking you higher and higher

Somehow I see my car insurance going sky high and a whole new slew of Geico commercials about cavemen and hotrod balloons and bikecopters.

Floating gas stations, ingenious. Like Lyle says, better the pump than the prices, hahaha...
