Uglier than the MP3 but it has the same technology. I can see them catching on soon.

Lota gays in France I'd say you'd be shot here, or at least badly beaten and rightly so.

If you don't consider them bikes (more like trikes) i think they look really cool, but next to a ninja or street-rod there is no competition. And 170MPG is not to be trifled with.

It was going in a straight-line mind you, didn't get to see the whole leaning thing happen...

Where'd you get the 170mpg figure? Had a look in Bike magazine and it's listed at 66mpg, which is still pretty good.
