Raptor Cycles

From Power Rangers Universe

The Raptor Cycles were motorcycles used by the Dino Thunder Power Rangers.

[edit] History

When Tommy Oliver was being held captive in Mesogog's lab, the Rangers tracked down an invisiportal, but Hailey warned them that they would have to reach a speed of 595 miles per hour, otherwise they would be ripped to pieces by the portal's turbulence (which creates a plot hole, as rangers and monsters were able to step through an invisiportal on foot both before and after Haley said that). To solve this dilemma, Haley gave the rangers the Raptor Cycles, which were their vehicle of choice for the rest of the series.

[edit] Appearance and Function

Unlike the Raptor Riders that preceded them, the Raptor Cycles looked nothing like velociraptors, or any dinosaurs for that matter; instead, they looked a lot like any other colored motorcycle.

Aside from their mundane appearance, they also have lasers that can be shot out of their headlights. The rangers find that they can pull off Evil Kinveil]-style stunts on their Raptor Cycles with the greatest of ease.

Due to their improved speed and weaponry, they quickly replaced the Raptor Riders as the rangers' preferred method of transportation.
