Engine Sound

[Bob Pastorello]

Really, Ron?
I thought you were on the design team for the chisels the later generations USED to round off those wheels.

    Wasn't all that long ago, John, we did the same thing.  I thought guys like you and RVP had the solid stone wheels on their bikes......maybe I'm wrong......


  Yeah, we did have stone wheels on our bikes. I was on the design team which rounded off the square corners (that the program managers wanted) so the bikes wouldn't go, "clump, clump, clump...."

    About a million years ago we used playing cards on bicycle spokes for the same effect.. Wow! were we ever ahead of the times!

    This one falls in the "Now I've heard everything..." category.
     
    It was inevitable, I suppose, for someone to offer an airborne megaphone device with programmability, such that an electric powered models could SOUND like an ENGINE powered model. I would bet that the next step in programmability would be to offer a JET or HELI sound too.
     
    Hey, how about using the real noise maker??

    PS- actually a similar concept could possibly be developed to cancel some engine generated noise. Dean, what do you think??
