[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5237099, member: 19675"] One thing I might do (besides what I posted about a sonic attack in the other thread) is give the guy a Focus (or multiple Foci). I could EASILY see him having a piece of clothing- a medallion made with the badge or gas cap of one of the [URL="http://demenshea.com/blog/?p=1418"]bikes that inspired you[/URL]; a beat-up leather biker's jacket with appropriate patches; old-style biking goggles- that is at least in part the reason for his powers. If you don't want it to be the ULTIMATE source, build his powers so that this is more like a true focus- his powers are innate, but if he's wearing the article of clothing, he gets bonuses to using them, or acts like an END battery to power them. (Any of these would probably be an IIF.) He obviously needs to be fast. Faster than humans, but not necessarily faster than a speeding bullet. 120MPH would do just fine. A la ZZTop's classic car from the videos, perhaps the motorcycle is summoned by invoking the powers of his key & keychain...and without it, no motorcycle! (Sounds like an OIF to me.) You might also want to break up his powers into a few different multipowers: One MP for the motorcycle itself (speed, the Desolid, the sonic attack), others for the medallion (Cha boost, other stat boosts, Presence attacks), another for the jacket (Armor, DR, Healing), another for the goggles (special senses). In that, it would be kind of like a set of magic items. [/QUOTE]
