Do you steer or counter steer?  (nice set-up, I had a dachshund in a backpack once, that got plenty of smiles from the female gender, you must be rolling in attention)

Attention?  It's crazy.

I just ride like a normal bike (countersteer).
There is more weight there but it is surprisingly balanced.
Hard acceleration requires a little steering input to go completely straight (pull on right grip slightly)
Hard straight-line braking goes the other way (push slightly on right grip).
If you ride normal after a few blocks it's hard to know it's there (but you'd better not forget -plan on being wider when you pick your lines)

I've got 2 French Bulldogs myself, bet they'd love something like this.

Dachshund over here...I'd ride with him in something like this.

This needs to be mass produced so I can get one for my bulldog.

where's the video???

[bryant8]

We just returned from our semi-annual trip to the Texas Hill Country and we were able to catch a few videos this time out. 

Including the Pugglepod

This is a pretty rough cut and paste video but at least you can see it in action.  And yes, the 900SS is in 3-up mode.

New pics of it painted are being uploaded as people return home

Thanks for the cool video!

Now you need to get a friend in front of you with a rear-mounted camera.

Nice!!

That is a sick paintjob, running 3 up is awesome that is some great craftsmanship.

I'm not the mad scientist that created the PugglePod 9000, I'm just lucky enough to call him a good friend. 

SUPER DUKE! of the DFWM is the creative mind and owner behind the PP9000.  We had Duc 'L Smart do the chase camera work for the group.  Next time out I hope to have a few more cameras set up for the trip [moto]
