LOL it's just a little too... gay... for me I guess.

Oh well.

That said, Extreme G was awesome.
Speed is always relative.

Have you seen how the MP3 leans?  I picture it something like that...  All the wheels lean with the font arms moving up/down to tilt the whole um... thingy-a-ma-bob
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

yeah, that's what i meant about the arms articulating to accommodate the lean.

On to the topic at hand...

It looks REALLY REALLY uncomfortable except for when it's fully forward.  At speed, while leaning forward, the two front wheels should somehow move together and become one, so you can use it more like a bike.

Overall, it'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

sorry but nothing can be more uncomfortable then my 749

"...well, a head on collision with this thing IS head on  :)"
I agree...........
as we all know, in a head on colllision on a bike, sometimes the rider will go over the bars and launch, possibly avoiding extreme injury. If you hit a car head on, or t-bone it with that, the first thing there is your FACE  :-X

I had a 16 year old punk squid implant his new ninja into the side of my car at 35mph (at the front end of a skid mark that was about 30 to 40ft long) and go over the car. He fortunatly only tore some muscles and tendens in his shoulder, nothing more serious. He turned a corner and got on the gas as i was making a entry onto the road.

That still looks like it would be pretty fun on a track or somewhere with a lot of turns  [moto]

there was going to be something humorous here, but, unfortunately, i was in charge of the typing, and this is all i could come up with.

Last week I had to run over a simi's tire that exploded in front of me now on the S4 it was a good size bump to go over. But that may just turn into a skidding faceplant into the ground with those small tires.Other than that it looks like it would be fun minus the whole faceplant thing.

Now why did you have to post up those two last pics?  That was just wrong....

I think the last two pics are nothing compared to the man-toe hes showing in the first pic.  50 year old virgin-for real.

I dunno if I would be as worried about the tires as a I am about catching the debris in the chest and spilling my guts all over the road!  I do not like being strapped in like that.

My soft parts are a little too exposed to the hazards of the road 8)
M-ROCin' it!!!
