    Motorcycle of the future? Fully electric. Two gyroscopes help stabilize this thing and keep it upright, even in the case of an accident. It looks pretty sleek, though I don't know about having an extra passenger sit in the back. Thoughts?

    24K seems a little steep for a covered motorcycle. It seems cool, though, but how does it drive in the snow?

    Fair question: probably much like a motorcycle...like crap I suspect.

    But the reasons I ride will never be replaced by this covered mobile.

    I can see it being my 3rd vehicle though but at 24K...very expensive third mode of transport.

    Very steep for the price. Since its a kickstarter project it will take a long ass time for it to be actually produced. I've had some ****ty experience with kickstarter but that's me

    Looks like one of those hybrid cars on two wheels. Gross
