    Pretty cool from a technology standpoint, but if you can't balance a bike, you might want to reconsider riding. I can see where this would be the ticket for someone with mobility issues though.

    Seeing a riderless motorcycle follow someone down a hallway is just pure science fiction coolness for me.

    Cool technology. They probably got a shit ton of data from Marquez. All the times he's crashed, yet never fell down must have been an absolute gold mine of data for this project ha ha.

    The adjustable rake is cool. Imaging riding down the freeway then flipping a switch to quicken the steering and hitting the offramp to some twisty roads.

    Isn't that just a Segway that looks like a motorcycle?

    It has to have at least an ounce of gyro or else how does it know when an axis shift happens?

    MEMS based accelerometers just like you have in your phone.

    Very cool. It's easy for most of us to forget the older demographic that can no longer hold up a motorcycle (think goldwingers who trike bikes) and also those who have sustained accidents and lost their ability. This coupled with their automatic push button shifting would be a godsend for those people wanting to stay on 2 wheels.

    It has at least three. Biggest is the crank. Wheels are two more, but no effect when stationary.
