Would you drive this?

Its fast... light... kinda sweet looking....

And it doesn't tip over....

I think i'd giver a go...

I'd love to give it a go, of course I'd probably find a way to tip it over

I like it, but can it pop a wheelie (and not do an end-o)

In the future it would be great if there could be lane allocations for smaller vehicles. I often thought my commute could have been faster on my 1970 Honda Minitrail. (and more fun)

Why not if you have the dosh...next stage, make a four wheeler that can change it's centre of gravity, and make roads that can accommodate them.

You could also have this, pretty good stuff


Or this..using the correct parameters of course,


Methinks four wheels is still the best course..potholes excepted,

It looks like a good idea but I'd be worried that it might 'flip over its own gyroscopes' through a tight corner.

The video only really showed it cornering at speed in CGI.

As long as nobody was watching.

That looks like it could be a blast.

I would attach a loudspeaker to the front and play this at high volumes.

Can't see it being all that practical for the function of playing Mom Taxi.

It would be sweet until you cross a sand patch, or oil spot mid apex.

...Then it would cartwheel until your brain scrambles and pops.

-I would totally drive it.

No thanks. I like having a man card.

Looks about as safe as a "Smart" car in a wreck.

a reply to: Akragon

Only if I can put a set of Screamin' Eagle pipes on it.





Otherwise, I too would have to hand in my man woman card...

anyone else notice that force was always applied to be bottom of the vehicle, and never to the top (where center of gravity is most unstable). I think it's pretty good at not tipping over, till you drive/ride it in a strong crosswind.

Still cool though, just seems unpractical, and I'm not convinced of the 'anti-tipping' feature.

Closest thing to a Tron light cycle I have seen so far. That stability control thing looks pretty amazing.
