Default Japanese Jet Bike

I hadn't seen this before. Faiyatorikkubobu.

I think I would like a very open and straight road (not to mention a fire suit) before I would consider "pushing the button"


WaaaaHooooo!

They actually have information on a pile of very cool bikes there LikeCool.com Bikes

Kinda cool, but I'll build anyone a jet bike for less than ten grand, and it won't have unstable, tiny wheels.

Judging by your Avatar I would have guessed that that bike was almost perfect for you!

I'm pretty sure these bikes are all done just for promotional purposes and the 10k price tag is probably part of that.

If you think the Ridley bikes are overpriced just wait until you see this one: James Perse Cruiser

$2200 for a Felt Cruiser with a dull paintjob and no motor!

The gyrocopter was a much simpler and more eloquent design than that bike! The Bike you linked just proves that P.T. Barnum was right, at least if anybody buys one of those it does!
