Two-Wheeled, Self-Balancing Gyro-X vehicle from 1967 in action & driving scenes!

This video is about the most particular vehicle of the 2019 Concorso d'Eleganza of Villa d'Este in Italy. It's called Gyro-X and it's a 2-wheeled prototype able to stay and drive perfectly balanced thanks to a gyroscope (55 cm in diameter) fitted in the front.
The project was born in 1967, designed by Alex Tremulis and gyroscope specialist Tom Summers, with a budget of $750,000 (about $6 million today) but it was soon abandoned due to Gyrocar Company's bankrupt, ran out of funds to perfect the product.
After all these years, Gyro-X chassis had a complicated history, losing its gyroscope too, until it ended up in the hands of Lane Motor Museum in Nashville.

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.
