This vehicle was created specifically for the Pimp Daddy Destro My Ride Contest. The contest's Vehicle Category involves making a dedicated vehicle for a character that never had one before and the Figure Category involves a new character to be the driver for a vehicle that didn't come with one. For the Vehicle Category, I decided to create a vehicle for the Iron Grenadier's field commander, General Voltar. Because the contest requires you to name the vehicle, I'm calling it Voltar's Violator. I had a lot of fun working on this and got to use an old vehicle that has been sitting in my fodder box for nearly 10 years! Hope you dig it!

Glad you like it! The base vehicle was the same motorcycle pictured in the set below. I actually got it from an older (discontinued) set back in 1999 or so, but the vehicle is the same.

Yes, it would! The manufacturer is Chap Mei, so it won't be too terribly expensive. I'm sure you can find it on ebay.
