Yikes, I am not that impressed with the design, I feel like I won't purchase it.

At 49CCs I think it will likely compete more with the go-ped than Spyders and Rykers..... Jim

Stange...

Seems to be a Russian vehicle from St Petersburg. Does have that mindbending 5 hp 2-stroke 49cc engine so not coming here... :roflblack: does well in Japan but then they tend to be smaller....

Eww... it looks like a roto-tiller, a mountain bike, and an aardvark all put together. :barf:

Sorry, I couldn't resist. No offense to those who might swing that way... to each their own... :dontknow:

Looks like it will give you the ultimate Wedgie!:shocked:

 

[Spydermike]

I can't tell which direction it should be moving...

I dunno, kinda clunky in the front and lean in the back . . . I’m thinking it looks more like a mechanical wart-hog (maybe the next generation’s version of a transformer).

I guess I should have mentioned sarcasm in the original post lol

 

[Bob Denman]

Wait... this is a j0ke; isn't it?

 

[BajaRon]

This appears to be a concept bike only. It is not in production or for sale.

 

[Rogue Hawk]

It looks like this guy would ride it

 

[oldguyinTX]

Ugliest thing I have ever seen.

Ugliest thing I have ever seen.

...Says the "Rat-Bat-Spyder-Crab".... :thumbup:
"Angry Red Planet"...:bowdown:

 

[jlc41]

Ah no!!! I don't think so. I agree I think it's a concept idea for feed back.

I am NOT going to add one of those to the stable. My Vulcan 900 is looking better all the time. :yes:

I was very happy with the Hondas I owned, but that one wouldn't get a second look from me.


Not to mention that I can't picture putting my lard butt on that little thing!!!

 

[gkamer]

OMG, it looks like it already crashed. What a monstrosity.

 

[SilverFox1]

Good grief! Have a heart. No competition here.

That link takes us to an article about Asook's modified Honda Gyro - and btw, it's a pretty extreme mod!! :yikes: It puts the Gyro's back end up the front end & hangs a G string of a rear end off the back of the old rear end which is now the front end instead!! Got that straight?? :roflblack: I reckon it looks like the 'rider' might hafta kneel on the seat or floor boards to avoid having that rear tire do some pretty painful surgery every time it hits a bump!!

The REAL Honda Gyro is a conventional trike configuration with 2 drive wheels up the back, only the whole front section tilts, & they've been around for a while! They first hit the streets in about 1982, and I think that some versions are still being sold:

The real Honda Gyro's & variants are a lot more sedate looking than the Asook modified version; they are pretty agile & cheap to run, so they have been fairly popular as '1 person scooters' &/or 'light delivery vehicles' in Japanese cities - I've heard tell that some cities have more of them running around than NY has bike messengers! :shocked:
