Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

Intamin has often used different support designs on a single coaster. Cheetah Hunt has both the circular and square connections with I-beam and circular supports at different points in its layout.

Would all these trees and a low coaster track be potentially hazardous in regards to debris and falling branches?

I'll refer you to this wonderful ride for that question. The Beast

2 I-beam and 5 circular in this picture too. I wonder why one was left black and the rest brown

Looks like that is a wrap and it is brown under it.

Its under black protective wrapping?!? Come on brah.....

It's starting to look a lot like Cheetah Hunt's river hugging section to me (my favorite part of CH), so I'm happy.

WOW...where is this at?

Forget about Tree Limbs, how do you keep wildlife off the track?

Lance at Screamscape is still saying Intamin Motorbike Coaster themed to Hagrid's bike with a sidecar.

I mean, he's been saying that since day 1.

If there is a backwards portion that includes a launch, there's no way they'll have people in motorbike seating positions. That's asking for a lawsuit.

To say this, the only way I see it being Hagrid's Motorcycle, if it is more sit-down than motorbike coaster (as said before, Wave Breaker is the example I will fully reference till the day I die).

Possible, but even Wave Breaker doesn't look like it would be all that comfortable with a fast backwards portion with a launch/stop and change direction.

Not that I think it is, but instead of reverse section it could use turntables to always launch us forward.

If that's the case my arguments against a motorbike would be moot.

(I still hope it's not a motorbike because those coasters usually suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck)

Everyone assumes this means two different seating arrangements but what if Hagrid's bike is strictly decorative with no one on it and the sidecar is the actual ride vehicle? The bike moves via "magic" and we go along for the ride. It would be a way to theme the train cars without actually making us ride in uncomfortable bike-seating.

I was gonna mention that as well: Cheetah Hunt's river portion support system is a lot different than the rest of the coaster due to all the tight curves. And the rumored layout of this has very tight and multiple turns.
