Ryno motors out of Portland OR is developing an electric unicycle for the scooter crowd.  I look at it as if it were a moped, and try to imagine the sportbike version.

yup, I could definitely get arrested on that...same reason I don't own a supermoto - although at least on a sumo you'd be really hard to catch  Evil

the specs say it will carry up to 280 lbs...which leads to some very amusing imagined visuals.  laughingdp

Site sez you can have one of the 50 pre-production bikes for $25k with a $6k deposit Roll Eyes

Kinda pricey for a electric "bicycle"

Probably fun to ride, tho
