Beautiful Custom Starwars Landspeeder made from a 600cc Honda Silverwing. Picture Leo tooling around on one of these with the addition of some whitewalls: orlando.craigslist.org/mcy/5448026486.htmlWho's going to jump on this one and ride her home?

Cool! But land speeders aren't supposed to have wheels... even with whitewalls... LOL!
Makes me want to grab my blaster and pop some womprats or whatever those critters were that Luke used to incinerate from his speeder!
Oh oh, I see the two full-moons coming up for the evening!
Ride safe, wheels or not!

I'm not a big Star Wars fan, but that is a real work of art.

I agree, that's quite a nice piece.
And Leo, yes. They were womprats.

Love to rip that thing around willow springs,,after they extricated me from the wreckage we'd have a lifetime supply of toothpicks With the speeds a SilverWing is capable of I wonder what that would be like on the Interstate even on a calm day. Adding and R2D2 TopCase/Storage Bin might make it visually more interesting.

Thanks KAT!
My old brain isn't as far gone as I thought it might be... The long-term memory still works. It's the SHORT-TERM memory that's going south... LOL!
I can picture a Star Wars cook-out now... A beautiful green evening sky, a couple of full moons, a few good beer-buddies with tails, trunks and tentacles... a blazing fire with a bevy of fresh-zapped womprats roasting over the coals... And plenty of garlic and picante sauce... Yummmm!
The weather has been sunny and 60's for a few days, and going to hit near 80 this weekend! Hmmm... I wonder if I could pot a few drainage-ditch armadillos with my trusty old Colt, while running Minnie Mouse down the freeway? I think I could put 3 or 4 in the trunk, and maybe one-each in each saddlebag!
Heck, it would make old Luke proud!
OOOHHH! Armadilly-chili! Think I'll see how much queso, picante and ammo I have on-hand! Oh well, I suppose the Texas Sate Troopers might "frown on such a harvest"... LOLOLOL!
If ONLY the danged critters weren't known to carry leprosy...
Ride SAFE, but never HUNGRY!

The incidents of contracting leprosy from armadillos seems to have doubled in 2015. State had to publish a public notice about this back in July because of the alarming increase of it.

Someone needs to be beaten severely for that.

OK, I just googled leprosy and armadillos. First off, Smithsonian people don't know the diff between "affect" and "effect" (embarrassing, that). Second, if you're wearing gloves and cook the dilly thoroughly, then how are you catching leprosy eating the thing? And third, does it taste sorta like chicken? >'Kat
