Gecko & Chopper
Hey Chopper, heard you’re a wrench‑wizard. I’ve been sketching a plan for a motorcycle that can roll like a ghost—any thoughts on keeping it silent?
Sure thing. Keep the engine small and lightweight, use a quiet electric motor if you can, swap the chain for a belt to cut vibration, line everything with rubber or silicone pads, and use high‑quality bearings so the rotation stays smooth. That’ll shave the hiss and give you that ghost‑like roll.
Nice ideas, Chopper. I’ll keep the wiring tight and the chassis quiet. Any tricks to keep the motor’s hum from getting caught on radar?
