Subject: What was the name of this toy??? I need help!!!

I am trying to find the maker and the name of this: You would attach this to your bicycle grip and could rev it to sound similar to a motorcycle. I can't for the life of me remember who made this. I think it was Black in color. Any help would be appreciated!!!!

Here: Get a clothes pin or some kind of clip. Take a playing card or some other card, and clip the card to the back wheel of the bike in such a way that the card flaps loudly against the spokes when the bike is being ridden. It sounds, with some imagination, like a motorcycle engine. 8)
You probably heard of that already but just thought I'd mention it.

You could have saved you Jedi cards by using balloons. The more you inflate them, the higher the pitch, but they wont last as long. A little less inflation will give them a deeper sound and last longer.
The long balloons are the preferred style rather then the round ones. It is easier to tie both ends to the forks.
