yes it is i ,Will of course and as i said you won't believe my next project and here it is the "hovering jetbike",
the most dangerous hunk of junk in the galaxy , this terrifying machine is a real working hoverbike , a true adrenalin
rush to ride , currently running minimum horse power with a 18 hp briggs v twin worth over $4000 new ,motor running a single fan for both lift and thrust ,and it can spin on a dime , which means it can turn sharp if desired,
hovering at aprox 50 kph, bike comes with spare motor 40 hp air cooled citroen horizontally opposed twin,
bike has clear fingered skirt which gives you a 8 inch lift off the ground and the skirt being clear is a great affect, would look incredible with underlights ,comes with pattern and plastic welder impulse sealer to create your own fingers ,
bike has purpose built trailer, wof and reg, ready to tow away , as usual this hoverbike is my original design and is the only one in the world ,
if you ever wanted a hoverbike this is your only chance , i haven't made or shall not make any others , there is potential for development ,
this machine and trailer is sold as is , no warranty for machine or your life , i have always had to ride first during testing as i invent i ride ,and i take my life in my hands knowing the risks of flying on air with no wheels , but wow what a rush, i spent $6500. and one year to get it to work , this one of a kind prototype is not accurately made
but a working hoverbike none the less , i have not taken it out over the ocean due to the risk of sinking it , but has been tested over shallow waters to test flotation,
raced along the beach on sand and on the edge of the water and along the mud flats , takes about a minute to get an audience.

well thats all folks , bye for now and be well from Will.

Seller Comment: as you can see the bottom photo is of the old bag skirt design , which was scraped but the picture gives you an idea of what it looks like to ride. 9:11 pm, Tue 29 Jun
Seller Comment: in the top photo you can see a blown out finger on the right of the picture , you can lose about 6 fingers before it starts to not hover , and its easy and fast to put a new on on , two screws on top of bike and two plastic pull ties , 9:14 pm, Tue 29 Jun

Seller Comment: heres a photo of the bike ,side on, turning in a tight space ,no nose cone on in this picture, 9:31 pm, Sun 4 Jul
Seller Comment: i took the photo of the old bike with the bag skirt away , as you can see in the picture of the bike and trailer , the bike has a nose cone which has mesh in it so birds and bricks don't go in the propeller. 9:37 pm, Sun 4 Jul
Good to see there are still some mad bastards about. Far too hilly where I am for it to be practical. Hmmmmmmm..... Perhaps with more horsepower?????? nealeb (402 )  10:46 pm, Sun 4 Jul
The citroen twin got my attention as well - its something I've been looking for - any chance of bidding for it in a seperate auction? dejer (89 )  11:35 pm, Tue 6 Jul

You are the F**kn Sh*t mate. Go get yourself a job at nasa. nick333 (22 )  9:44 pm, Wed 7 Jul
Mate, if a sheep can get world wide attention, you will go far, If I had a lazy $5000 I'd buy it. And I think you days as a WOF inspector are limited too! Great stuff. scottie1 (1002 )  9:47 pm, Wed 7 Jul

You are a genius, like others I cant believe you are in such mind numbing jobs, you need to match up with someone with entreprenurial skills. I envy you your gift, but feel sorry for your limitations as the world could be your oyster. Regards and Best of luck on the auction. bazta (1149 )  7:49 am, Thu 8 Jul
Hello, great project. Are you willing to be interviewed about this project for a "kiwi ingenuity" section of a soon to be published website? If yes I'm with the telecom ISP, my Trademe username is the first 1/2 of the address. My associate in Nelson would visit you for a chap and some pics. Thanks, Pat Boyle. pat.boyle (126 )  10:00 am, Thu 8 Jul
How does it compare to anikens pod racer in terms of performance and fuel economy? johnyp (101 )  1:06 pm, Thu 8 Jul
Does it have GPS? and can it decode spy satelite transmissions? susel (1586 )  10:37 pm, Thu 8 Jul
Good luck with selling the craft, it's people like you who inspire the remainder of us with our smaller projects. Richard --rjt-- (221 )  11:18 pm, Thu 8 Jul
I'm with the others - bloody excellent to see this advert and these messages on here. You are a legend matey - whoever you are. I would love to have a rip on this machine but alas (like others) I am all dash and no cash. Give it heaps - NZ needs guys like you. searunner1 (309 )  8:19 am, Fri 9 Jul
What I want to say has mostly been said. You definitely need to get yourself a promoter, that can take your "kiwi ingenuity" to the US, or somewhere, where it will be able to be truly appreciated on the financial side. This invention is worth thousands more than you are asking, just for its pure genius. The sky is the limit, and as previously said, the world is your oyster. Get to it and take it.

Hey Will - send us a postal address and your shirt size because I am going to buy you one of those Aotearoa Allstars T-shirts and send it down to you in appreciation of the effort that you put into your projects. You the AA of the month for me Bro. searunner1 (309 )  12:10 pm, Fri 9 Jul
You should have your auction listed on e b a y also, get international interest.... cm3 (81 )  1:37 pm, Fri 9 Jul
Perhaps if the speedster doesnt sell this time you should put it into the trademe motors then you are able to put your details and phone number, seeing as there has been so much interest! gobes1 (372 )  3:31 pm, Fri 9 Jul
