| Yes DooHee I have been busy. My goal was to finish and start right back on the Lambos, but building the BK has rekindled a desire to build the Batpod replica. I really want to feel what it was like to ride a batpod and since I've had no offers to ride someone elses I guess I have to make one. The Big Mahalo will just be a prop but I can then move onto building a running one. At the same time I would like to build a revised version. One that looks the same but I can address each issue. Street legal tires, beveled tires, correct centering of spindle, steering mechanism that doesnt cut through the fork, balance, chain tensioner,shoulder steer. But I got to understand the real batpod before I can address those issues. As always build the bike on paper then attempt to build in composites. I feel like that famous quote from Newton in that if I have been able to see further to create my projects its only because I stood on the shoulders of giants who came before me, Doohee, Rusty, Jack, Kevin, Parker Brothers, Shaggy, Youngbat and all the helpful members of CLTC. Thanks David, that means a lot coming from you. See you over at the Big Mahalo build. Oh check out my www.batbuilder.com and follow me on Bat Builder on facebook. Happy fabricating.....BWD
