Could you imagine doing 75 mph in this thing. I am a dare devil at heart and this thing just looks unstable to me. I think it would start wobbling like a tank slapper, only this would be atorso slapper.
This thing is just weird!


Yamaha wearable motorcycle concept will likely remain just that

[/align]It's not often that you see devices huddled under the transportation and wearables categories, but you can certainly consider the above pictured contraption a proud member of each. Created by transportation design student Jake Loniak, the Yamaha Deus Ex Machina is an "electric, single passenger, vertically parking, wearable motorcycle, and the bike would theoretically be controlled via 36 pneumatic muscles and 2 linear actuators. We're also told that it would be able to accelerate from 0 to 60 in just 3 seconds, though the top speed would be capped at 75 miles-per-hour. Ah well, at least we know the wearable airbag is actually coming, right?

psh.. 75? thats a walk in the park. if i could manage to save more than a few hunded id have one in my driveway right now

 

I though ridding a motorcycle made you a target. That thing looks like its go a bullseye on his chest...lol. It also leaves the croch open to get hit by a rock. NO THANKY YOU!

 

I'll do 200 hundred on my 14 but that thing looks dangerous. I dont know how it could be stable unless it leans forward as the speed increases. Then you would be looking at the pavement that you would eventually end up eating.

Yea crotch open to flying objects? Not as good as advertised. No thanks.[8D]

 

Yeah Deej,

It would be our luck to hit a big bird right in the crotch then we'd crash. I think that shiney thing in the middle of the guys chest is a big nail to keep him from falling off!

 

i just wanna see it crash! lol[&:]
