Now that it's winter I could use one of these..............
Car or Motor Bike? Jeremy tries out the EcoMobile - Jeremy Clarkson's Motorworld - BBC (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbdkZB9-Sd4#)
That would have been cozy on my ride yesterday. 28 degrees. Doesn't solve the ice problem though, dammit.
Look at the video at the 2:42 mark. Do you see what I do? Is that rear wheel deflecting with a corner load?
I wonder if those motorcycle wheels are designed for those lateral loads. Hmmm.
I'd like to see a video of that vehicle on a 2 lane highway, with a 18 wheeler coming from the other direction.... I wonder how it handles the wind gust. Pat

Pat,
I think that is the front wheel at mark 2:42. Note the dual rotors. Cool machine non the less, but you would not see me in one of them. Kinda defeats the reason that I ride.

Oh yea, right you are Craig. The wheel deflection is just the steering input.....ok, carry on.
I agree with Craig, I still would not own one. Rain? What rain? That's why I live in the desert.
I wonder if it comes with a/c?
