Now You Too Can Own A TRON LEGACY Light Cycle
If you have a spare $55,000 (£33,500) anyway,,,
Have you ever fancied riding around like Sam Flynn from Tron Legacy on your very own light cycle? Well for a fee of $55,000 (£33,500) you can do just that thanks to Parker Brothers Choppers based in Melbourne,Florida. Available on the Hammacher Schlemmer gadget website, the bike is a full scale working replica of the light cycles used in the recent Disney film. Powered by a fuel injected 996cc, 4 stroke engine taken from a Suzuki TLR1000, the bike is fully street legal and capable of speeds of up to 120mph. According to the website the light cycle is;
Designed for casual cruising and slow ride-bys at shows, it is made from a steel frame covered by a fibreglass cowling that replicates the sleek look of its computer-generated imagery counterpart. Electroluminescent strips built into the tire cowlings, wheel rims, and body illuminate the cycle.The Hub less wheels are made from former truck tyres that have been re-shaped and re-moulded to fit the two counter rotating rims and providing the same broad tyres of its CGI counterpart. At just over 8ft long, the bike has spring loaded front suspension; rigid rear suspension and a driving position that sees the rider lie along the length of the cycle. With each light cycle built to order they truly are the ultimate collectors item for all Tron fans. Just imagine how cool you would look riding up and down your local high street on one of these!
