Something a Little Different

Don't think I'd want one,

but sure is unique and interesting.

Ride On and Carpe Diem, my friends

  1. I am still not sure how I feel about these hybrid bike/car wannabees. It would be a nice change in the crap of winter on the west coast to be nice and dry, but I can imagine here in BC that they would have issues with insurance and probably be expensive to insure and then there is no quite so chic as a motorcycle or full on beautiful scooter factor. I have seen concepts like this a few times over the years and nothing seems to come of them. Might be fun to drive though.

  2. Well, stranger things have happened. Look at the Smart or the Beetle redux. Still, when I think scooter, Vespa is the first thing that comes to mind, and it means two wheels...

  3. Too much inside keeping the outside...outside.

    Not enough ground clearance.

    Here's what it reminds me of. It is said the Episcopal Church is the church people who don''t go to church would go to church if they went to church. This looks like the perfect motorcycle for people who don't ride motorcycles, but if they were to, this would be it. Just as people aren't exactly knocking the doors down trying to get into the Episcopal Church, I suspect this won't be a big seller...at least not here.

    I wouldn't mind piloting it on a test drive.
