Not sure, but I believe this is a speed selector...the handle slides side to side to engage either the larger, or smaller sprocket. Here it's engaged to the large one. Seen at the National Museum of Industrial History.

Made to endure the trials of the most hostile terrain, the Horizon-class speeder is equipped with coupled twin-proton engines. Built for speed over comfort, it remained one of the most utilized speeders in the exploration of the new world. Not only because of its ability to quickly carry equipment over large areas, but also because of its ability to withstand the trials of the frequent sandstorms.
Possibly the biggest, baddest, most bulbous speeder bike to emerge from the drawing boards of Llwyngwril Systems. The Turbinia was based around a massive turbine.
Centuries later, all the evidence left for its existence are these four archive photos. They leave many questions unanswered:
Was the giant turbine some form of centrifugal compressor? If so, were did the all of air go? The nozzles on the rear of the bike are quite small.
As the turbine made up a considerable part of the mass of the speeder bike and was effectively a large gyroscope, how the Turbinia generate enough turning force to manoeuvre?
How did the pilot get up to the cockpit?
The mechanics of the anti-gravity systems needed for the Turbinia to hover are, of course, simple and well known.
When I first built this 442 a few years ago, I ended up representing its twin hood-mounted intakes with simple black 1 x 4 tiles due to wanting to reduce the overall size and profile of the car. Now, I've figured out how to build them the way I really wanted to from the start, thanks largely to all the new brackets and such we have available now!
Hey, you should probably check out the Frontier Bank Heist.
Warehouse District, Austin, TX
This is another image from the Flickrwalk last Saturday. This modified Corvette was parked in the Warehouse District in downtown Austin. The Warehouse District is where the late 20s and 30+ crowd goes for night life in downtown Austin. The famous 6th street is frequented more by the college crowd and tourists these days.
I generally process my HDRs lightly, I believe, however, I thought that this image would work well with some heavier than normal HDR processing. What do you think?

A collection of warmup / leftover builds that didn't quite seem right for the LSB 2017 contest. I tried some custom stickering on these. Enjoy!!
Another day and unexpectedly another speeder. Couldn’t help myself, is this procrastination or just another attempt at juggling multiple ideas!? I need to get back to the Stinger Mantis, as I feel so so close to finishing it now. ;)
