Jimmy The Motorcycle

Not sure if this has been posted before, but I just saw it on Reddit. Jimmy is a Lightning!

Cute video. Nice Find!

Jimmy like to do wheelies ...but, don't try this at home kids.

LOL

LMFAO I lost it

Who knew jimmy was a buell. Haha

Jimmy could be in a chevron commercial!

 

[sewerman]

That is really cool!! My ladies 11 year old really dug that. He loves bikes and trains. Being an autistic child his fascination with mechanical things is overwhelming. I have him saying Buell is Cool!!

He does some amazing clutchless upshifts. In fact I am amazed on how every shift is without using the clutch! Haha

 

[djs2k2]

I thought the race slicks were fitting!

 

[mrlogix]

I liked the banking angles.

Did you count the number of upshifts? What about the number of different engines running?

Oh - and the Lightning is mirror imaged in the first few frames.

 

[thrstrmech]

anyone notice the engine was flipped, primary was on the right side, the belt, pulley and sprocket on the left side

 

[Sirius815]

I only noticed it in the first few frames - see my post above yours. Same went for the lightning decal on the shield and the front brake rotor.

 

[thrstrmech]

just re-read it...I didn't notice the mirror images 'til about 3 minutes or so, pretty spot on rendering of the Buell, down to the clutch cable, missing oil cooler though

 

[Sirius815]

I saw the oil cooler [confused]

It is missing the rear brake lever.

its correct in the beginning but yeah it flips towards the end. pretty good animation. i sent it to a friend of mine who just had a kid 3 days ago. I think thats about the right time to learn about motorcycles.

"Go!, Jimmy"
It has a combination voltage regulator/oil cooler.

I liked the banking angles.

They were extreme enough to make the shank-like ice pick foot pegs dig into the ground. Must be how Jimmy's rider ended up with only a single toe nub

Jokes aside, it's an awesome animation! I know that I would have loved that as a kid! Nice work!

My little ones will see this tonight! Great video, I kinda like the white frame idea... Someone with a lightning needs eyebrows now.

They do say that the airbox is the fuel tank

Pretty cool
