The principle of sound is the phenomenon of waves, in which the vibration of matter is transmitted through the medium of air. By properly controlling the flow of air, a pleasant musical scale can be produced. On the other hand, the engine of a motorcycle, which is the heart of the vehicle, also appears to be a complex mechanism at first glance, but its driving force can be described as air compression. Air is efficiently compressed, and with the help of gasoline combustion, the force of the air pressure is converted into the reciprocating motion of the piston. This motion is converted into rotational motion through the chassis. And furthermore, it generates propulsive force by spinning the crank and the tires.

To use it, first push the air pump attached to the upper side of the main unit several times to accumulate air in the air tank located on the side. Then, by twisting the valve in the center of the main unit and opening the air passage of the transparent tube in a certain direction, air is immediately released from the compression tank in the direction where the valve is opened. The released air pressure is used to generate sound as the air flowing into the trumpet-shaped tube is used to generate energy to vibrate the harmonica reeds attached to the inside of the trumpet. The air flowing into the other tube, to which the propeller is attached, is converted into the reciprocating motion of the piston, which rotates the crank and produces propulsive force.

By controlling the flow of air, it becomes a tool that plays completely different roles, such as making sound and moving forward, encouraging a free play style that is not limited to one or the other.
