    Wouldn't fancy having to do a quick swerve to avoid something - it'll topple over for sure.

    Very low COG gave them a score of 5 (top) in the NCAP roll test.

    does it have side curtain airbags?
    I've learnt to hide the pain inside, open the throttle and ride away.

    That is possibly THE gayest cage I have ever seen. Its like that old Lada joke: whats the difference between that car and a sheep? I'd sooner be seen getting out of a sheep!

    Like those carver vids though. Wouldn't mind a rip in one of those.

    A personal rocket pack that lasts at least 19 minutes in flight time! Rocketeer here we come!

    Or a giant mag-rail gun that blasts you into the air and then snap out glider wings ...

    Having a uni-wheel with hamsters running in tracks around it ...

    Hover craft shoes ...

    Giant springs or pogo type shoes ...

    I think Mad Magazine did a kewl article on how to beat the cost of fuel rises years and years ago ...

    Agree.


    I think the nest best thing to a bike would be the likes of a GT40, light and super powerfull.
