Gecko & Chopper
Gecko Gecko
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?
Chopper Chopper
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.
Gecko Gecko
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?
Chopper Chopper
Use a motor with low‑frequency output, put a ferrite core around the power leads, wrap the cables in aluminum foil or shielded tape, keep the wiring tight and routed away from antenna paths, and run a small battery pack instead of a long lead‑out. That’ll keep the hum from bouncing off radar.
Gecko Gecko
Got it, Chopper. I’ll run a stealth‑shroud over the battery and keep the wires humming low—no radar will notice us rolling by. Thanks for the playbook.
