Oh my gosh. I would have never thought this would be possible. Why did that thing not twist in the middle and fall over? Can't even understand how you could balance it. Can anyone explain the physics behind that? I am truly amazed.

I have no more info than the video itself. I found it on another site and thought you guys/gals might find it kinda cool. I was expecting to see another set of (training wheels) in the middle but, that would probably disqualify it from being a scooter. Notice how it was not driven with other riders on. Not practical and just for show IMO but kinda neat. I would like to see whats under the canopy. Must be a really long throttle cable ;D 22 meters is about 72 feet |

ps: ..oh, tn and edfr should be sitting in the last 2 seats.,,bleh,lol

No No Luke, the mods sit in back and watch like usual. They can see the danger coming that way. I want Lefty or Sprocket up front and you and EM can draw straws. I think Puddle Jumper should be driving though.  I might hang around and direct traffic to keep things safe ;D I did find a bit more about the build if anyone is intrested. There's A couple a videos showing how it was done. I gotta look it up again though. |
