THE REAL LIFE TRON:LEGACY LIGHTCYCLE BIKE!

All right guys, you've seen the fancy Trike that Paul Jr. Designs built for the release of the Gears of War 3 video game [shown in this article HERE] and I've posted tons of concept art tied to TRON 2 movie. But to see something fully functional contrived by engineers and technicians that actually looks like a real life movie prop is an outstanding feat. Check out the clip that's been floating on the Web for a while:


Actually, this concept bike has been around since December last year. Fully inspired by the TRON: LEGACY movie, the new Electric Tron Lightcycle was designed by Parker Brothers Choppers located in Florida. Their motto is "If you can dream it, we can build it!" and they've certainly delivered that bold claim in this case. The design model they used is shown on the left from a display at a Comic Convention last year. Despite it's engine-like sounds, this lightcycle bike is fully electric. Thus it has no engine and no gas tank. It can move for about 100 miles before it needs a recharge, and I'm uncertain about its top speed.
