I am working on a large racer scene and I am in need of ALOT of hoverbikes/racers and i want a number of different styles. I am aware of the following:

Daz3D JetBike
Stonemason Skybike
Simon3D FormulaX Racers
Davestia Sapratanni Sharks
MrSparky Skylon Racers
Davorama Hoverbike
MrSparky SkySlicer

Are there any other bikes along still style i missed (Free or Not)?

Thanks in advance!

    Kibarreto's Skyjet and Thunderbike are quite nice, too:

    http://www.daz3d.com/thunderbike

    At least I would call them hoverbkes...

    i actually have them both, but i need something smaller and more "Speeder Bike"-ish.
    But thanks for the suggestion.

    There is this one by winnston1984 at Rendo:-

    http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/in-hoverbike/34547/

    I have this but not installed at the moment, give me a bit & I'll put together some DS renders if interested? Actually as I now have Poser 9 (though I am very much a newbie with it) I could also try it in that.

    I am very interested in some renders. Also, im interested in knowing if those fans can actually be turned invisible to make the bike a little smaller/sleeker.

    OK some quick DS4.5 Renders of the Hoverbike, all are based on the P4 variant file.

    The first is an unlit render showing the parts that can be hidden, the rear fans and the main bracket, the front fans are part of the nose section and cannot be hidden without hiding most/all of the nose section using the bones/surfaces settings. The other renders are all DS4.5 using Omnifreakers Uberenvironment 2, KHPark HDRi & quality set to 'High'.

    The very last image has some quick and dirty tweaks to the surface settings, some surfaces set to Metallic or Glossy Metallic (rather than the default 'Plastic' and the positive Bump limit changed to 0.2 (from default 0.01).

    Some P9 Renders of the Hoverbike, I'm not really sure what I'm doing in P9 so these are just simple shots using Posers standard lighting rig.

    Thanks for the renders Kinich!
    I think i can work with it with those rear fans off.

    Nitehawk,

    I take it the bike on the left in the background, is the same bike Kinich has shown above.
    I also take it, the bike next to it the sharecg jet bike: http://www.sharecg.com/v/28783/View/5/3D-Model/Jet-Bike

    Now with the girls on the bike from left to right, i suspect are:
    #2 - Davorama Hoverbike: Not available anymore
    #3 - Star Wars Speederbike: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/freestuff/details.php?item_id=63115

    But what is #1 and #4?

    And speaking of the Daz3D Hoverbike, were there any other textures made available for it?

    #1 Hobbyhopper jet bike - rendo
    #4 Sharkey's rocketscooter - rdna

    I been unable to find a D/L mirror for either of these bikes, just photos.

    #3 was in the old DAZ weekly freebies, it came with 6 textures.

    Can you link me to the photos of the HobbyHooper Jet Bike? I would like to see a little more of what it looks like.
    It looks like it worth tracking down more so than the RocketScooter.

    If you google "hobbyhopper jet bike", 5 of the first 6 links go to rendo gallery showing the bike or a interview with the artist.
    I got that far and stopped, as I already had the model. Sorry.

    As for Sharkey's rocketscooter I found just one picture at rendo's gallery also.

    I did, and yours look much different. In most of the renders i seen, they more like planes with wings and the handle bar placement is different. Is this due to the handlebars can be raised or lowered and the wings can be turned off? Can you show a quick render of your bike by itself if its not too much trouble?

    Here you go, 3 views.
    All control surfaces move, wheels, handle bars, pedals & knee pads adjust.

    Cool. Thanks! Without the wings, i think this works pretty well.

    I think DAVO's Hover is over at PowerFusion3d.com. Might be worth a try contacting them, even if you do not see it, ask them.

    Meo!

    Does this work in Daz?  it says it's not supported.  Do the textures work?

    Given it uses Poser Material shaders, I would assume not.  But other than that, I doubt it would be an issue.

    If it has multiple surfaces, I can retexture it.  However, if it only has 1 surface then it wouldn’t be much use.  I was hoping someone here has used it in Dax and could tell me.  I do like the Police mat.  It would be a shame if I could not use it.
