Here is an interesting photo I came across. I couldn’t find any additional information about it’s origins, but it appears to be a type of one-wheeled motorcycle (or possibly two closely-set wheels, it’s difficult to see in the picture).
Looks to me as though it would have all the stability of a hedgehog on a caffeine-buzz. How do you handle reverse-torque when accelerating? And if it is two wheels, how do you make a turn without the outside wheel coming off the ground at speed? And, oh yeah, where do you hang the saddlebags on this thing?
At least the guy in the photo has the good sense to be wearing a leather motorcycle jacket and a helmet. Personally, I would be wearing some leather motorcycle chaps and gloves as well. On second thought, I don’t think I would get on it in the first place.
