Interesting looking concept bike. Just an FYI...the XB on the Buell names stands for X-Blade (frame design).

Or X-Brace, but close enough.

It's itty-bitty, in the concept art the rider looks like a monkey humping a football.
And is that the gas tank in the fairing?

Interesting design/engineering concept though.
I'd love to see a real life version of that wheel just to see how well it would function.

He's not the only one.
I've seen the hubless front wheel before.
Just never in person.
