I think Jay Leno said it best " Answering the engineering question no one ever asked." He was referring to an early 1900s bike with the engine mounted on the front wheel. I think this is in that same category.

I freaking found it! Years ago I was driving back from Camp Hill PA and saw this on the highway. It was towing a trailer too that matched the styled car. I took a Pic of it on my Verizon flip phone and it came out perfect! It looked like a UFO on wheels if I had to describe it. I assume it was coming back from one of the Carlisle car shows they have down there all time.

Plus:slimmer than a 4 wheel vehicle could be without being necessarily unsafe in curves. A leaning vehicle doesn't experience the same forces as a car. A car this slim and small would not be safe at higher speeds in curves. Not saying this is but the concept allows for it. Though it would be nice if someone developed a 3 or 4 wheel thing that just has suspension arms like a motorcycle but slims or broadens it's track so you can park superslim go off road medium and be broad n flat on the road few cm above ground for fast cornering.

Could not be made to work. The effect of the gyroscope is the same at whatever speed while the counter-steering from a single-track vehicle increases with speed. Those long streamlined Bonneville bikes are notorious for their steering characteristics to REVERSE at a certain speed, and in at least one case I know of reversed again at still higher speed. Pretty obvious that the designer had zero understanding how a motorcycle steers and stays upright.

Like Pop-up head-lights are illegal pretty much everywhere on the world nowdays (ofc antique and pre-ban cars are exempted) i don't think the windshield could support the car in case of roll over due to a lateral car crash the doors wouldn't be crash-safe,fitting airbgs on such thin doors would be hard so making an 2019 version street-legal would be super expensive.. ....and you're going to sold like 100 cars Max to dealerships and they're gonna sell like 30 cars cuz' it's gonna be more expensive than it's worth,gonna look weird for base consumer and people won't take the risk of buying a car that going to be a mechanical nightmare to fix if the company go bankrupt but yeah it's going to be a nice fast car like burt monroe bike
