Here is the video. Information on it is just starting to make the news.

Basically a drone with motorcycle controls........

Looks a bit twitchy to me. Can you imagine trying to land that in a crosswind?

An early morning breakfast ride on that would probably get you shot in my neighborhood.....

You get 40 minutes travel time...and wait...there's more. Only $682,000 bucks.

As mentioned above...I don't like the noise either, and it does look "twitchy."

If any buys one, make sure to give us a test ride report. :bowdown:

Yes! And do it first thing! Before you crash it! That test pilot is all hunkered over. He does not look very relaxed. Not until he lands and I'm thinking he's saying to himself. WHEW!

Ron, you're correct. I watched the video again and the pilot looked all tensed up. After landing he sat back and released his death grip on the handlebars. Wondering what use or purpose would be for this. Maybe a steppingstone for something that will be commercially viable.....?
