Ride it or drive it?

If I was to be on 2 wheels, and I am, so probably not.

I don't think too many others will either. I do think its kinda neat tho but its not really the first like it and no others have done well at all. I don't think too many Americans are a big fan of the "Taco 'o Death" approach to commuting.

I'd try it, but I wouldn't own one.

I dont like it. I certainly don't think this is the future, at least I hope not. But it is a good effort in something a bit different.

It basically takes away all of the fun of a motor cycle while also taking away all of the conveniences of a car. Sort of a loose loose.

no... but not because of why you think. #1 - and the real reason is because it's electric. #2 - it has a steering wheel. #3 - all the gyro sensors in it that keep it upright.



however, i would love to try this




look at the interior




and it can still do this
