4 wheeled motorcycle?

Sounds cool.

When you watch the video of the 4MC being ridden around corners, you realise that this bike seems just about uncrashable. At full tilt, its wheels actually move slightly further apart, increasing stability. That, along with the added manoeuvrability that its tilting wheels provide, make the 4MC a demon in fast corners. And at very low speeds, there’s a hydraulic anti-tilt system there, which ‘locks’ the wheels and allows the machine to be ridden very slowly, without the rider having to put his feet down.

Its the natural extension of the parallelogram front-only suspension of the Piaggio MP3 - except this guy has done it to both front and rear suspension. The hand-cobbled differential would be interesting to take a look at - assuming that its not a 'locker' type rear drive. Show me a prototype with a motor that generates some real torque and revs, and I'd be a bit more impressed... :idk:

I love the definitions; let's look at a couple:

Quote:
a motor vehicle with two wheels and a strong frame
Well, that rules out the GSX-R1000 from a few years ago! :D

Quote:
means a motor vehicle with not more than 4 wheels that is steered by means of handle bars.
That's an ATV, not a motorcycle! :skep:
