    Default Modified Coiled Series or Defender

    My brother sent me this link for a new type of gyro-stabilized enclosed motorcycle. There is a shot of a Rover trying to pull it over. Thoughts on the tailgate? Possibly just modified to carry this new vehicle in the back of the Rover or other type of motorcycle? Or is it storage?

    Looks to me like a custom tailgate built to allow additional storage or perhaps as you say, to transport the bike. Can't tell for sure but it looks like a series w/ a coil conversion. Wonder if they have fitted one of these gyro-scopes in the rover!

    Boy, I'll bet that would be the hot set-up for a Series in an off camber acending/decending turn (or any turn, really...) . Wonder what it would cost?

    I emailed them regarding the truck, awaiting a reply now. Went to their site and clicked "cargo scooter", we haven't had a laugh like that in weeks....

    They're attempting to install the gyro system in the 90 to achieve 65degree off camber driving! Very nice guy, and very cool ground up fab-build!
