Just think of the looks you'd get weaving in and out of traffic riding in/on this thing...

They had a couple of them at Bonnevile a couple of years ago,one had a snowmobile engine in it.Truly terrifying to watch him try?? and control it.

Browse this site: http://www.dself.dsl.pipex.com/MUSEUM/TRANSPORT/motorwhl/motorwhl.htm for more than you ever wanted to know on the subject. If you think it'd be hairy to ride one with a B&S engine- check out the video of the V-8 powered monowheel!

Almost impossible to ride well -- seen it on some show and the guy could barely keep it up.

>>>Almost impossible to ride well -- seen it on some show and the guy could barely keep it up.

Wrong me if I am correctable...but wasn't a fellow seriously injured on that inside the wheel death trap last year?

I mean....funny to look at, but please.

Did he not put one into the 130 mph club at the salt in 2003. I know he was trying.
