I live in South Korea and I believe that this is a great vehicle for this environment. My son travels by bus about 15 miles each way a day to and from work for a total of 30 miles. He could buy a car, but at $6 to $7 dollars a gallon plus taxes, insurance and parking, it’s just not worth it. Now if he can get something like this that he can use that will cost less to operate including tax insurance and parking than taking a bus everyday…. Bingo Freedom! And I do mean freedom, anyone that has ever lived taking the bus or subway even if they are great systems like the ones here always feels a bit trapped by them.

An enclosed two-wheeler is the perfect solution to year-round motorcycle riding. I would buy one….depending on the specs, of course.

There are 2 types of motorcyclists;
a)Those that ride cos it’s practical  or it’s the only thing they can afford. Usually people in developing nations riding mopeds and cubs.
b)Those that do it for recreation, or those that just chose bikes as their primary transport even if they can afford cars.

The price of this abomination clearly puts it in group b, and people in this group ride because of the freedom it gives you, the wind in your face/helmet…etc. No way in hell would comeone like that want to be caged into a 2-wheeled car.

Top speed? Charging time? Interior heat? Reverse gear? Trunk capacity? Please do some research and release a follow-up article.
