Interesting choice of an event for the reveal. The snow and ice of a Toronto parking lot in the winter? Guess that answered any question of stability....NOT

I want that thing so bad. The perfect solution for those of us who have less than ideal balance for a motorcycle, want something a little faster than segway, and a little bit more agile than a trike. Let's hope this thing gets to production.

Since DEKA owns the patents on dynamic stabilization, I doubt you will see this in production any time soon. Also, I'm curious what sort of balance you really need for a motorcycle.
