The Uno

MotorcycleMoto magazine has a great article on The Uno - a one wheeled-looking motorcycle.

The 2008 National Motorcycle Show in Toronto has always been heavily influenced by the American V-twin crowd and highlights some of the area's top custom builders who have on display a fine array of one-off custom machines.

This year's show, however, had one very unusual one-off custom, the Uno. The orange and grey coloured Uno made its first public appearance balanced on its two side-by-side wheels and its footpegs. Looking more like it should have been ridden by George Jetson as he pulled up to his space platform, it looked out of place amid the other custom creations in the building. Perhaps that's why it garnered so much attention.

Squid Alert! No gloves and no over-the-ankle foot gear.

So how does the "no wheelie" law handle this, since it's ALWAYS "traveling on a public road with only one wheel on the ground"?

Yea, it better have ABS brakes. Lock up that wheel and you're going to go SPLAT!

Nope, it's got two wheels, side by side.
