I am trying to figure out making constructs. So I am trying to find a few things out.
1. Can you make a medium size construct you can ride as a medium size humanoid.
2. How much would it cost.
This has to be medium size so I can make it construct armor as well.
I am going to be reviewing the rules now, but any help would be great.
p.s. Where are the rules for what you can and can-not ride please?

Normally you cannot ride a construct. It has to be a mount which under the core rules no construct is. However there is a 3rd party product by super genius games engines of destruction that allows you to add the 'steed' template to a construct which would allow you to ride it. Not sure regarding sizes, but my understanding is that if it can hold your weight you can ride it so long as its at least your size.

Is there some "mount" quality certain creatures have that I am unaware of? Perhaps there is an exhaustive list of possible mounts somewhere.
Where, exactly are you getting that a constrruct is not a mount? For that matter, where are you getting that you can only ride mounts?

This is information I would like to know as well.

A starting point is a construct version of a donkey or mule which is what I suggested Sunday last.
As for what serves as a mount I would use common sense: what have people been using to ride around on the backs off? Big domesticted herbivores as well as donkeys, mules, burros, camels, perhaps certain bovines and llamas. To carry a grown warrior in armor with gear and weapons at speed takes a great deal of carrying capacity and endurance. Coupled with the need for certain general characteristics of temperament and a certain "build" is why dogs pull you on sleds and some other animals pulled chariots. Improvements in collars also greatly helped, as well as the invention of the stirrup.

At the current moment, it's impossible. We have no stats for donkeys. Bu if we ever get them, you'd take the stats for the donkey, then change it's type to construct. Then you work backwards by looking at the pages for animal and construct and change everything accordingly.
Edit: It's actually really easy. Just did it for griffons.

Thanks
Me neither. Odd.
Have you considered just using the intelligent magic item rules.

It do that now? How it has changed from the comics I did read in the past. He was capable to place it in a suitcase but I have never seen him morphing it to a motorcycle.
