I wonder where they got the idea for the looks of this 3d printed motorcycle?

I could not help but think of Chopper when I read this story.

Only catching up with this now.  Love it.  I know I'm being a nerd here, but it's always bugged me how a powerboard could work - Zapata's kerosene one only lasts for ten minutes, but Chopper's one can be recharged.

Some kind of advanced nuclear power technology perhaps?  Answers on a messageboard please.

I have a huge confession to make.  I've never seen BTTF.
Always meant to get round to it and never did.  I know the story of the first one in detail, and that's from a mixture of reading the free picture booklet with Ready Brek and my friends excitedly explaining it.  Sorry, everyone, not cool, I know.
