Yeah, you wouldn't want to tangle with a Peterbuilt driving one, but damn this thing is cool! Now this is the kind of running gear I want on my ski plane, being able to carve turns like that would be a game changer. I know this leaning into the turn is not a new concept, but this is the slickest, and most recent rendition I've seen yet. yet.

Hmm, I wonder if Yamaha has been working with Toyota on that?

Interesting concept. Looks similar to a scooter I see in the Sun Place which has two front tires (they lean too)
Around towner, yes.
Cross country, ?

FMCDH!
Interesting, even cool. But can you imagine when it is 8 years old and one of those wheels no longer goes up and down? Just getting it to the shop would be an adventure.
