I saw that last week. Struck me as probably the stupidest motorcycle I have ever seen. I waited and waited for the video to show an example of the guy turning that thing around a corner, but they never did show it.

This is "art", it isn't an actual useable motorcycle.

Lot of good components wasted on that piece of sh*t.

Looks pretty scary to me. I think wheel failure at 65mph would almost always be terminal. The leverage of that big wheel on a 6” mounting point, the least little bit of drag could cause it to wedge, lock-up and explosively break-up. I’ll stick with a hub and bearing in the middle of the wheel.

I think it’s pretty cool. Not sure if I would be comfortable with my ass that close to the rear wheel though!

No clearance for speed bumps or driveways.

No headlights or tail lights.

The wheels are fixed to the base of the rim giving the motorcycle the appearance that it is 'floating' on the road.

It looks great but I can see a great deal of wear between the fixed rim and the rotating tires.

There's going to be a lot of dirt and ground-up asphalt particle build-up between the rims and tires. Lots of wear and tear.

It will require extra maintenance.

But it does look cool.

Looks like Mad Magazine material. What a joke.

Where are the lights?

With no fenders or fairing, I bet it's a lot of fun driving on wet pavement.

Is a street sweeper always required to be just ahead of the bike?
