Give an inch, they ask for a mile.

Machinist guild/Garlemand made it to test the concept, but the engine of the prototype was flawed, so it turned out to not actually be a noticeable speed improvement.

Would probably be easier to just state they made a fancy looking pushbike for kids, and decided to make an adult version due to demand. Also at least your idea attempts to rework and fit the concept within XIV's world, whereas others seem to just want the AC bike thrown in as-is.

That's no less ridiculous than Allagan shenanigans. In fact, it's rather realistic actually.

I find the Allagan shenanigans a minor annoyance at times. Like, is there anything in Eorzea they weren't responsible for at this point? It's getting a little boring to be honest.

Thinking about it, IF they ever implement this, I hope it scales with height/race, otherwise Lalas and Male Roes will look rather silly on it. I could just imagine some poor Lala holding onto the handle bars for dear-life.

[Naliee]

Hmmmm... rather no.

I personally can't see that thing flying without looking ridiculous. And I don't think bikes belong in Eorzea.

Begging for the motorcycle isn't going to make them implement it. It wasn't voted down in a player poll, it wasn't some player contest entry that didn't make the cut. It was made by the developers, weighed by the developers and ultimately rejected by the developers... long before anyone even knew it existed. The only reason it's appearing now is because someone asked about a motorcycle mount in a Live Letter Q&A. They probably made it to go with the Strife set, given it's the Advent Children motorcycle Cloud used. We can ask for it all we want but the reasons it was originally rejected would still be the same. It'd be no faster than a fat chocobo.

Because it seems to need be repeated...

We're not going to be in Eorzea forever. Nor is every location in the setting limited by Eorzea's technological level. There's this weird habit people have where they play MMO's such as WoW and FFXIV and then try to paint them as being 'medieval' when in reality they are far from that.

On top of that if you don't like a particular mount then there's no need to use it, is there?
