Will this attraction have a guest size restriction like Forbidden Journey and Flight of Passage?
Those bike coasters usually do.
The current theory is that while the ride vehicle is a motorbike, it won’t be motorbike seating… so not like tron or flight of passage. This theory is based on there being a visible headrest on the ride vehicles (even though they’re covered). So hopefully lots of people will be able to enjoy this attraction! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for everyone.
