        and on that note remember this????? BMW engine powered.
        Because you cant get your knee down, those wheels at the side pop out automatically at a slow speed (you hope) You have to remember this
        when filtering between cars in traffic.

              the latest version



              The Peraves MonoTraceris a two seat, fully enclosed body sport bike with a difference. According the press materials, even though the tires are rated for a lean angle of up to 55 degrees, only twenty percent ever exceed 40 degrees and only five exceed 45 degrees. The MonoTracer is equipped with two automatically retractable stabilizer wheels that allow the machine to safely lean up to 52 degrees.

                            naa... i see top gear all the time... just have to watch it on the computer instead of the TV...


                            i dont always agree with them, and they are obviously bias in some ways.. but its still an entertaining show.
                            of course, they filmed the best episode in the US... that roadtrip one was one of the funniest things ive ever seen..
