Design ObjectivesThe design objectives are a combination of both the rider's desires and the engineering requirements. 
Common Modifications A search of previous projects came up with some interesting results.  However, none of these options was suitable. They either were not commercially available or they didn't fit into the deign objectives. The two most common problems were they changed the look and feel of the motorcycle too much.

The DesignThe solution would be to design one myself! 
Award Winning DesignThis design was entered into the national Atlas Copco design competition for "The Most Ingenious Use of Compressed Air". My uni project was up against tough competition, with entries from international giants such as mining companies and the cosmetics industry. However, is was picked the winner!! The Design Whilst finishing the design alone would have been more than enough to pass the project from the university's point of view, I was not happy to simply end all the hard work there. I wanted to build a prototype of my design. 
I knew building a prototype was going to be expensive so I began to search for support from various companies to help cover the costs.
