Nice work.

As everyone else pointed out:
 - Image's too big.  I hate donwloading black pixels for ten minutes!
 - The welder who shaped those exhaust pipes did a crappy job.

Now a few comments of my own:
 - The rust texture used for the frame looks more like rattlesnake skin
colors than rust.
 - There are no "exhaust pipes" on a jet engine.  Combustion by-products
are mixed with the main flow of air.  Besides, if there were exhaust
pipes, they would be attached to the combustion chamber, which is in the
middle of the engine.

Unless your hoverbike owner wanted to paint it rattlesnake-skin-color
and added crappy exhaust pipes to the side of the engine to give it a
meaner look.
