Cool noise maker. Is it one of the friction based ones and is it hidden in the oil tank?

I was looking for zip ties on the chainstays but I couldn't see any. Please reveal your secrets!

No, it's just cable ties/zip ties. Sounds cool eh!

Yeah, I did the same thing when I was little. I also used to shove a plastic water bottle in between the back tyre and seat stay on my bmx. It made a very load noise! :mrgreen:
 
Re: ====~THE FAIRBANK FLYER~==== * Now With Engine Sound! *

I went out for another ride today and I decided that the engine sound needed a little bit more. The one thing I don't want to do it to take the paint of the wheels, so I attached some plastic acetate strips just behind the coaster brake arm. Sounds a bit better now, it has a bit more of a flutter to it. I'm still playing around with different ideas :mrgreen: but here is another quick video of the newly improved engine sound.
