Note from the developer:
| The Steelhead Hybrid Assault Bike is a stylish, heavy duty, retro inspired bike that can transform from its default ground mode with wheels into a hovering flight mode with hover thrusters that can go anywhere. It has 6 gears to shift through that go from a slow cruise to blistering fast. Drift around corners by holding shift and turning in 3rd person, or just hold A or D in mouselook. It uses gestures to shift gears and transform on the fly, or click the vehicle to select options via the menu. The menu features security options that let people with same group tag drive it, or set it to public for anyone, a headlight toggle, LBA HP system toggle, driver position editing, passenger options, and 12 textures to choose from. White and Chrome are fully recolor-able. The vehicle is mod as well, so feel free to edit things like its size and colors for anything on it.

Instructions:
| Unpack.
| Rez.

[ Options ]:
| Click for options menu.
| Change textures via options menu with 12 options. White and Chrome are fully recolor-able.

| Toggle headlights on and off via the options menu.
| Select security mode via the options menu. It can be set to owner only, group only, and public. Each mode will determine who can drive it.
| Toggle LBA on and off via the options menu. With LBA on, the bike will have 25 HP by default. When it reaches 0 it will explode and respawn wherever LBA was turned on or at the point where you entered a new sim. The LBA script is full perm so you can edit the text color vector and HP amount at the top.

This thing’s controls/movements are top tier work. Really well done. There is however a weird tiny rotation that happens when switching between ground and hover mode and I would love for the headlight to use the colour of the headlight prim for easy recoloring, I might just use the link messages you’ve set up to fix this myself. Headlight and rear lights could also be powered off when dismounting (I might also use link messages to sort this out xD) This really is a super fun vehicle, your work continues to impress me and I’m always looking forward to new releases from you.

Gonna be playing with this one for a while! The shift key drifting, sound effects and particle smoke are especially nice work.

Thanks for everything you create in Second Life, Grave!
We’re blessed to have you on the grid. :)
