Looks pretty freakin cool. I would totally roll out one of those if I lived in the big city. I have ran around downtown Chicago on my old Honda and even on a motorcycle parking is at such a premium in large cities that you need to start thinking upwards rather than outwards. If you know what I mean by that then you would agree, I am sure.

And its a FREAKIN TRANSFORMER

I'm impressed.
The concept initially seemed kind of dumb when we first started hearing about this years ago, but now it's actually looking a lot more practical.

That is really cool actually. If my job location changed and it could do 50mph then it would be useful. Weird but useful.

It needs to go faster to appeal to more potential buyers. The 30 mph current top speed would get me run over on my way to work.

Exactly... speed limit 100 yards from my house is 45mph. I need to do at least 50.
