Star Wars Speeder Bike

[Capt_Taggert]

I just finished up my Star Wars Speeder Bike. Here's a few pics. the rest are on Photobucket.

I replaced the kit hoses with ones I made with wire and solder.

It has a slight forward tilt that I need to correct.

I'm never one to question another's decision to do something off the cuff...

but are the steering vents on the front of the speeder bike supposed to be upside down??

 

[Capt_Taggert]

I don' know maybe they are.I'll have to check

 

[Capt_Taggert]

Egg on my face!!!! They are upside down. Well, I thought I was finished!

Another Scout Trooper Luver !!! Hey Feels Good not to be Alone !!! LOL

Yeah... take care in flipping those Steering Vanes... that part of the kit is extremely Fragile !
as you might already know !

Nice Job on the Scout BTW ! Hope you didn't go insane trying to Join both halves !!!

Let us Know !!! How the surgery went Ok!!!

Take care !

Addendum : I took a second Look !!! it's not just the Steering vanes but the WHOLE FORK assembly that is Upside down !!!
So you will have to pry the Bottom Cover on the Bike ( Blaster support ) and cut the forks away from their Allignment pins and
Secure them in their proper positions... and re_glue the cover ....

It's a little more involved than I first thought !!! Take your time ! It can be done...

I flipped the front fork assembly last night. Looks correct now. Thanks for the info. I'm such a dork. I'll post new pics soon.

Perhaps he's testing a new variation of the steering vanes?? ;D

Regardless, you did a great job!
