Ryno motors out of Portland OR is developing an electric unicycle for the scooter crowd.  I look at it as if it were a moped, and try to imagine the sportbike version.

Looks like something to get into trouble on.....

I like but will it be more than a Segway?

yup, I could definitely get arrested on that...same reason I don't own a supermoto - although at least on a sumo you'd be really hard to catch

Its like a Segway for fat kids, you don't have to stand while moving around.

You make a point.

the specs say it will carry up to 280 lbs...which leads to some very amusing imagined visuals.

Site sez you can have one of the 50 pre-production bikes for $25k with a $6k deposit

Kinda pricey for a electric "bicycle"

Probably fun to ride, tho

kinda takes doing wheelies out of the picture tho

But it cuts the cost of tire replacement by 50%

and eliminates the potential for tank-slappers
