Yamaha Root Unveiled

[trev0006]

Interesting seat, you can probebly sleep on it too.





from the article:
We knew how the bike would look and the overall impression was that things went too far in crazy territory. High-res photos have now surfaced and the bike no longer seems THAT wacky. Of course, we’re looking at a design exercise, a prototype created for the sole purpose of trying to see what wild approaches might lead to.

Not following....

the logic for this vehicle. Why are there no photos of someone actually on the thing..?? Seems you can slip and slide off that thing at anytime. But interesting nonetheless. Lets see where they go with it....:thumbup:

Why would you bolt a surfboard to an old mini bike?

I was wondering how much speed you need, in order to generate enough lift for flight? :dontknow:
