i remember seeing something like that on tv not that long ago.
and to answer the keep-from-falling-over question. there were "landing gears" that extended when you slowed down.
looked pretty nifty, IMHO. sleek, fast, quiet, comfy.

Ecomobile has outriggers that extend below a certain speed I believe. I saw it a a bike meet here in PA. I've heard there are only two of them in the US.

I kinda agree. Although it is kinda neat. The Ecomobile had heat and A/C. Pretty much anything a car has.

The Ecomobile website has great instructions for those who have never used "the net" before.
"Drag cursor over desired location, point and click for topic."
Thanks!

Watching the videos of the Ecomobile on a race track made it look pretty cool. I'm just wondering what is so "Eco" about it. There are no numbers related to fuel efficiency.

Looking at it as a motorcycle, I agree. Looking at it as a sci-fi vehicle that has a cockpit AND a canopy makes it a lot more interesting. I wonder how much it would cost to get ejector seats added...
