I'm glad they filmed it in a dark room!

I feel they're now just appealing to attentin wh**^%^ who will buy anything that will stand out and gets them a look.

Don't care what it looks like I'm more interested in the performance numbers. I'd like to see 1/4 mile under 10 seconds for starters.

Stuck in the Twentieth Century, are we?
 
That thing looks horrible. :laughing8: How is this considered a motorcycle. Motortrykle maybe.. Whats with this 2 wheeled thing all these manufacturers are making.. I haven't seen many of these types of vehicles on the road much..
 
Eww. Who is this product aimed at? Wannabe sport bike riders who aren't confident that they can handle two wheels? Scooter/trike buyers who suddenly care about looking "cool"? Or maybe disabled people who still yearn to ride--that I would understand.

The answer is casuals. Filthy euro-style casuals. Worse than scooter riders and a threat to the very SPORT of posing. Gyroscopically balanced frappucinos and selfies. A no-committment millennial fad destined for the scrap heap of hipsterism. Yama-HA is right, like a bad joke. #inrebrules

This weeks winner folks.

End thread. Not getting any better.
 
This is one of those situations where it wasn't broken, but someone needed to fix it?

Or perhaps it's just for the increased stoppie power of twice the brakes, twice the wheels. Probably doesn't need a lot of skill to accomplish one, either.

Piaggio MP3 250cc scooter did this exact design in 2006. A decade ago. Two front wheels that lean in.

Catch up people.
 
Didn't someone post this a year ago?
Build a bike with an ice cream cooler built in. That will impress me.

You would be cool riding that with your -8 shades.
 
Great... I gotta buy one extra tire & maintain another set of forks.
Smh
 
Serious question: Does push steering/counter steering work the same way on a bike like this? Or does riding take on some kind of different dynamic?

This bike is like that ugly girl at the bar, as terribly disgusting as this thing is, I'd like to take it for a spin as long as my boys never found out ;)
