I don't know how many are familiar with Grendal Warchild (by Matt Wagner
printed by Dark Horse) or Lobo (DC Comics) but that
skateboard/microskimmer post put me in the mood to post another musing of
mine... a LAV bike based on the ones in Grendel Warchild (or if you're
not familiar with that, think Lobo's bike).

It's basically a Large UAV modified to resemble a motorcycle...

Costs:
Large UAV 2,210
Jet Turbine Engine 75
Smart Materials 100
+10 CF 50
+290 Load 29
Add 1b 35 -6 CF, -100 Load
Armor 1 Standard 50 -45 Load
Autonav 1 5
Economy +.15 60
+200 liters fuel 20
_______
Total 2634 x (2.5+.5)
[I assume the drone cost multiplier no longer applies]
The final Stats are:

Handling: 3
Speed: 180
Accel: 10
Body: 3
Armor: 1
Sig: 3
Autonav: 1
Pilot: 1
Sensor: 1
Cargo: 2
Load: 155 kg
Seating: 1b
Entry points: open
Setup/breakdown time: NA
Landing/Takeoff: VTOL
Fuel: 320
Economy: .4 km/liter
Cost: 790,000 nuyen

since in the comic it never was never more than a foot off the ground, it
may be better represented as a Large Skimmer ... either way it prolly
doesn't fit with the SR concept ...

Whadya think?
