Inspired! And inspiring!

Now, some spin-stabilization and something that makes an awful racket on impact...

I absolutely love this, but can't help wonder about the legality of it. Hmmmm....if only we had someone who could offer us legal advice...

In one of his other videos, he fires a larger shoulder-launched rocket with stabilizing fins that may have travelled up to a kilometre. I expect great things from this young man.

I'm building this today!!!

There is a guy in Vegas who is a pyrotechnic and he launches rockets from his Vespa, pretty cool shit. He did a little show for us at the Pioneer Saloon when we were there in March. He uses his hard case to conceal the rockets and uses electronic launch as well, shoots them straight up in the air

Hehe. That is so not legal and gonna get someone arrested.

Now pardon me while I dig through the old model rocket box for motors...

At some point I will dig out, finish and install the hidden paintball apparatus to my bike to deal with shit-hole drivers.

WANT.

as a little threadjack, we were discussing the PVSC rally at brunch this sunday, and I was debating going. After this video, I am no longer debating it.

got scootah ?

For now, no; however I may have a moped. Do I have to ride a scooter there?

riding a motorcycle to a scooter rally is like bringing a knife to a gun fight

Wouldn't it be more like bringing a gun to knife fight?

I thought it was more like bringing a gun to a knife fight.

Also, how bad do you think a motorcycle-mounted potato gun would recoil?

Re the spud gun, not so much. What are your plans?

dozerone wrote:For now, no; however I may have a moped. Do I have to ride a scooter there?

No. Scooter is optional. Sad to say, but a few people that go to that don't bring a bike of any kind. They all have broken scooters. NSP was the first scooter rally in years I showed up on a scooter.(And it revolted by trying to kill my friend ).
But I've been showing up on Motorcycles for a while. It's totally cool.
Besides, it's on the way to Ragnarok.

There have been a couple of douchebags that have brought guns to scooter rallies. It's a little unnerving.

Moped is fine, but expect that everyone will want to take a turn on it...

Rev wrote:Also, how bad do you think a motorcycle-mounted potato gun would recoil?

How big are your potatoes?

And wouldn't it be difficult (comical) to spray the Aqua-Net into the chamber at speed? Or are you talking fancy pneumatics? Propane? How long of a barrel? Front facing or rear facing? Or both?

How about muzzle loading it with a potato, then dumping in a can of Diced New Potatoes. It'd be like a shotgun blast!

I don't need these ideas... don't give me ideas.

Hmmm. How bout packing it all in mashed potatoes to keep the slug and grapeshot intact longer, thus increasing its range . . .

All the Micks Krauts and Polaks would be begging for the firing squad--I know I would, I'm two of the three.

two words: recoiless rifle
