Fat Boy Version 1.01

~~~TRY the demo inworld below~~~

Experience the classic stylings and modern smooth cruiser ride with the Big Twin! Features a unique cruise-control system, built-in resizer, highly detailed model with PBR and custom sounds. Seats 2, 41 LI.

~~~~CRUISE CONTROL~~~~

The bike features an all-new cruise control system which can be enabled/disabled by the chat command "cruise", or by holding down the forward key and pressing the back key together to toggle it. When enabled, the bike will hold a medium speed based on the gear choice. To go faster, change gears up. To go slower, change gears down. A major feature of this cruise system is that the brakes and gas pedals still work! If you hold the back key (brake) the bike will slow down to about half of the current cruise speed. This is often enough to make a turn without shifting below gear 3. If you hold the forward key (gas) the bike will accelerate a bit faster than the current cruise speed, very useful for passing. Releasing these will cause the bike to go back to current cruise speed.

It is best to practice your bike driving a bit before trying the cruise system, but once you master it, you might never want to drive without it again!

~~~~Notes on GFS fuel system~~~~

The fuel system is enabled by default, and fuel will be consumed when the engine is on, based on your speed. Fuel level is displayed on the gauge digital readout, below speedometer. The bike holds 5.00 gallons of fuel, and will begin to warn you when it is down to 0.3 gallon. Once empty of fuel, the bike will stop and be unable to drive until you fuel it at a GFS pump. The fill location is on the fuel tank. If you do not wish to use the fuel system, the fuel off command will deactivate those scripts and if that bike is taken to inventory, will have the fuel system off by default.

Some gas pumps are too high up to work properly, and if you end up at a gas station which keeps telling you that it cannot find your bike for that reason, simply sit and say 'refuel'.

~~~~~Notes on Editing~~~~~~

This bike is mod, and as such, can be edited and changed with the following caveats:

Be sure to have an unedited copy of your bike. You never know whether an edit will break the bike!

BUILT-IN RESIZER can be accessed by clicking the headlight (only when the engine is off!)

It is possible to resize the bike down to .1 scale but it will be too small to maintain stability. It is also possible to make a "giant" bike but the land impact will be very high.

ONLY USE BUILT-IN-RESIZER to scale the bike! I have coded all of the moving parts to work with it!

The resizer has a RESTORE function that will return the bike to 1.0 scale. It also has a *SC-RESET* which will reset the resizer script. Do NOT reset the resizer script unless the bike is at 1.0 scale!

To do a linkset edit (moving, adding or removing prims) follow these steps:

1. rez bike and sit
2. say 'edit on' to deactivate the furware text scripts
3. unsit bike
4. orient the bike to zero rotation at all axes
5. make certain the bike is at 1.0 scale! (use resizer RESTORE if necessary)
6. perform all linkset edits and be sure to set everything with the pos and rot you want.
7. Once all edits are done, reset the resizer script by clicking the headlight and choosing *SC-RESET*.
8. Then rename and take new bike to inventory. DO NOT SIT or operate until you re-rezz it!
9. rez new bike
10. sit and say 'edit off' to activate furware text scripts
