wow talk about claustrophobia, they can't even fit that briefcase sideways in the trunk. It would be fun though. I can't help to wonder how safe it would be. The crumple zones are an inch thick at most on the sides, true motorcycles aren't safe, but at least when you get hit on a motorcycle you aren't trapped in a cocoon.

an awesome idea, and really well executed- only 250 a year- I expect they'll sell more than that, unless it's something like 20,000 pounds

what a great idea! dont moan about luggage space - get a car. as an extra comfy moped hybrid er... car, its a genius idea. with reference to Joe_Limon's comment, im not a fan of bikes myself, but id rather be in some sort of shell than flying throw the air, heading for a tree.

yeah but if you get in any sort of collision and you would have that vehicle protuding through your thigh, arm, torso, etc. On a motorbike you go flying, not much improvement, but I would rather be worrying about scrapes and bruises then having to remove sheet metal from my body.

pretty narrow girth for stable cornering , if you ask me. just wondering how this vehicle could handle the shearing forces of crosswinds while cruising on an open road , and how possibly could it handle the buffeting effects of turbulence generated by an overtaking/approaching vehicle?

yeah i thuoght about htat too, but in the city you cant really drive too fast and you will just have to corner at the speed of a bike - slowly! i wonder if it will tilt slightly round corners..

it's not really meant for rural driving and unless you plan to cruise Chi (Chicago or Chichester) there's not so much wind in cities.

Joe_Limon , in this case , even if it happened to be Einstein driving this tall, glamourized go-kart , he surely couldn't possibly bend the laws of physics in the event of sudden , compound evasive maneuvers which happen everyday on the road.
