PRODUCTION INFORMATION

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Racing Motorcycle
  • Size: Very Small
  • Weight: Heavy
  • Acceleration: Very High
  • Launch: High
  • Braking Power: Average
  • Cornering Speed Rating: High
  • Top Speed Rating: Extreme
  • Propulsion: Wheels
  • Minimum Crew: One
  • Optimal Crew: One
  • Passenger Capacity: None
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Reversed Repulsor Lift: Provides reactive down force to maintain traction at all times.
  • Linier Electric Drive Systems: Each of the hubless wheels are powered by magnetic actuators similar to a coil gun to provide instant, massive, acceleration and speed.
  • Area Scanning: Combined with maps of local area, maintains a small display with competitor's locations while letting you peer through visual obstructions.
  • Advanced Viewscreen: With HUD and self-cleaning Flash Guard will keep you apprised of your surroundings and upcoming turns or obstacles.
  • Reversed Repulsor Lift: Provides reactive down force to maintain traction at all times.
  • Dynamic Airflow Wings: Angular panels near the wind screen react to the motion of the motorcycle, providing stability and allowing a rider to deepen a turn before lofting upright again.
  • Magnetic Clasp: The only storage on the Bike for personal equipment come from a pair of magnetic clasps, one warped around the body of the motorcycle in front of its rider, and the other behind their seat.
  • Expanded Linkage: Riders can link the Courser to a helmet for expanded display and external controls or even allow an external AI/VI access.
  • Quick-swap Diatium Power Bank: Provides the power the bike needs and can be exchanged as fast as any pit crew could want to keep you in the race.
  • Micropanel: While not enough to keep you in the race forever, a commuter will find this small panel is enough to keep your power cells topped off.

STRENGTHS
  • EM/ECM Hardened: Systems are protected against electronic and magnetic interference to protect the bike from itself and other racers who might try for an 'invisible advantage.'
  • Surprisingly Quiet: Spurning traditional drives, the loudest sounds the bike makes are notification beeps and the hum of the wheels.
WEAKNESSES
  • Road and Track Racing Only: A low-profile design and racing slick tiers mean there's little room for shock absorption and less clearance under the body.
  • No Weapons: A dedicated racer, no space is wasted on weapons.
DESCRIPTION

Specifically designed as a pure race bike, not even Chi fully understands the limits of the motorcycle she's created. At a little over a thousand kilometers an hour she grew too frightened to continue testing. Gathered data showed the Courser was reacting to miniscule changed in terrain and airflow she'd never noticed and far faster than any normal organic rider ever could. Such raw power comes from the dual synchronous linear motors derived from gauss cannon principles, turning each wheel into the rotor of an electric engine. Every other part of the bike not designed for the rider is dedicated to keeping the massive racing wheels glued to the track to ensure maximum traction and minimal loss of efficiency. In fact, the wheels are the weak point, even when solid and reinforced with ostrine cooling, its estimated they'll explode in under an hour at peak performance from the thermal build-up and wear. Eventually accepting that better couldn't be achieved, Chi made them as fast to replace as the bank of power cells.

When dialed back to more reasonable speeds, the Courser's range opens up and the riding experience changes from a dance on the knife's-edge of reactions to a much more relaxing one. Wear on the tires also drops back to a much more normal rate, turning this racing beast into a decent commuter vehicle with a big surprise kept in store.
