well for in the first days of september I signed up for a official testdrive of a fine famous pass street here (sustenpass)
30 min briefing
1h driving
30min debriefing
I am fascinated by driving safety with this niken
They're neat looking, and not too heavy. Power/weight should be pretty good. Interested in hearing your impressions after you ride one!
Yes please let us know. From the videos I’ve seen, I’m unsure what the true benefits are.
saw a video review of that thing once, and I once drove a Piaggio MP3, so i'm certainly curious about it as well.
Great concept; but to my eye, looks only a mother could love. Perhaps in person it looks better. I'm very keen to hear your riding impressions.
I've also ridden the Piaggio version. I actually thought it was pretty normal feeling.
The advantage is a larger and wider contact patch compared to a 2 wheeled motorcycle. The disadvantage is of course weight, complexity, cost, the fact that you will wear out 2 front tires at the same time, and around here, missing all the pot holes in a lane when you have wheels everywhere lol.
last saturday came my time to drive it short 60min.
...and what's your feeling for 2 front wheeler?
Pics always great
well after 3m meter you observe nothing more extra that you have 2 weehl in the front....in this point handling like a normal bike.....
it feels somehow like a FJR or pan european just like a big sport-touring bike and like on rails aorund the curves..i feelt after 3 curves already very home, save
weight is 50:50 balance front/tail....and total somthing like 260-270kg... or somthing like 40kg more as the base-bike: MT09/tracer
