Yes I appreciate that this has been done hundreds of times already, but I have 12 koptas and really want Ork bikers in my Waaaaghhh ( I
don't like the GW models available) so decided I could sacrifice a few and do some choppin', here's what I have come up with.
I'm going to make atleast another 2 (having already salvaged the wheels from my sons toy box  )
C&C greatly appreciated

That is awesome! Will it fit on a normal bike base?

Cheers nectarprime dude!
To be honest I'm not sure, I wouldn't think so as its quite long, I'll prolly leave it unbased ( is that allowed?)
if I ever decide to game with it
I'm more of a collector than a gamer so don't worry to much about rulz and such anyways

Most of my converted bikes are too long or wide or both and do not fit on a base and no one has ever given me grief about it.

If you want to base em at all one thing I've seen on long models (and esp awsome since he used deffkoptas so should have the clear bases) is using a piece of a clear riser stem that goes in to the bas and propping the front of the bike up like it is in a wheely

Cheers guys, I think i'm gonna leave it unbased tbh, but I do have a large diorama
base from an old model that I may just use for display purposes, must say that wheelie idea sounds " wheelie gud "( sorry couldnt be helped) so will deffo be trying that.
Busy making the second bike at the moment, will post pics later.

As promised the second konvershun,
I dub this one the ''Dorkatti Monsta''
I'm quite enjoying this converting lark , 12 koptas might well become 12 bikes (providing I can keep raiding my bhoys toy box for wheels  )
C&C welcome

nice... and as a owner/rider of a ductati monster I doubly approve of the name!
another idea if you want for the AoBR deffkoptas. rokkit buggis. chop the top, add a tread to the back and they are mini snowmobile like buggies with TL rokkits up front

display purposes ?
give that grot a flamer and you got a skorcha wartraxx look a the gw model, they have it pulling a grechin
i can see the jetski though, that'd be cool and i liek the irony of orks putting a flamer on the water.. or riding a jetski on land and it workign because they think it should (or a mek thinking da boyz might bring it on land and putting little wheels on bottom)

Nice work. I wonder if GW meant the deffkoptas to be so easy to convert into awesome looking bikes and other such things The grille on the first one could do with a bit more work though I think. With the random wing plates it looks a bit too stuck on. Maybe add a few more plates, or damage up the edges a bit.
