pretty fun concept...complete with 'appropiate' music.

back in the 'bender' days, i always wondered if someone would rig a moto bike up, sans motor, for some massive drops.

Bender still rides. Last time I saw him personally was at Bootleg Canyon for the race, but he comes through Phoenix quite often to ride.

I had the same idea back in the day. I got as far as sourcing a motorless moto, but never got the brakes working well enough. And the jack shaft drivetrain! That's pretty sweet. I was planning to run mine as a pure gravity machine.
