Self Balancing Unicycle
Focus designs have taken the general premise from the Segway (accelerometers and gyroscopes) to make a self-balancing unicycle (SBU). You control the SBU by leaning in the direction you want to go… the pedals are not actually used for pedaling. The SBU is not cheap… it will set you back $1,500 and will be available […]

Crazy Futuristic Honda Motorcycle
Honda flexed their design muscle with their latest futuristic motorcycle concept. My favorite part is the fact that the hubless wheels have the tires totally covered in except for where the rubber meets the road. Crazy… and I want one.

Josh Pyke’s Guitar Boat
Josh Pyke… a Aussie indy-rocker, that I’ve never heard of until now, used this huge guitar boat in his latest music video Make You Happy. The guitar boat doesn’t look to fast, and won’t play music, but it was one hell of a publicity stunt. Rock on Josh.

Smart Car Monster Truck
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA7oADAI9lo Again… more crafty folks with more money and time than I can comprehend. These folks took a Smart Car and made it into a mini monster truck.

Looks like the folks at Aptera have made some changes to the Typ-1 vehicle they plan to start selling this year. From the picture it looks like Aptera has added a window behind the doors, added side mirrors (big bummer because the cameras were cooler), shrunk or removed the rear window, changed the door handle, […]
