On a road where there was a 0% chance of any debris flying up and tagging me in the junk yes. On a public road, no.

Hmmmm...never considered the "debri hitting the nuts" issue. Interesting outside of the box thinking you guys got there.

After watching the video clip it does look kinda fun for a track day or a nice ride on a closed off area. But I know that I will look like a douchebag if I had to ride that thing in traffic. Lets see him try to lane split with that wide wheelbase. It does not lean at all and taking a turn with that high center of gravity will be suicidal cuz that thing will tip over in a split second. I see it turns by the single rear wheel, that is great for parking spaces but it will not work at high speed(its max 75mph), why dont you think every other road vehicle never steers with its rear wheels only. I wanna see the inventor test it at 75mph.

Plus i can bet you what Jules will say, "If its a motorcycle, show me how it countersteers". The purpose of a motorcycle is not to go in a straight line really fast, but to lean the baby.

Motorcycles have two wheels, that thing is a tripod. Someone watched War Of the Worlds one too many times.
