Thats pretty sweet - nice concept. Pretty scary though, wouldn't want to be going at speed and have to stop or turn suddenly.

Yeah, I imagine the end is a bit loosey-goosey.

That just doesnt look fun. But hey MXers put street tires on their bikes...

Looks pretty sketchy and out of control in those vids.

Quieter than a MXer I guess.

Wouldn't be as fun as this though!

Yeah, the go-cart with the R1 is nice, but I would much rather have the Smart Car with the Hayabusa engine. :-D

Hahaha awesome!

I love it how they simply turn it over on its side to work on the engine!
