Uno Motorbike: A perfect Electric One Wheel Vehicle

18 year old, a student from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Toronto, Ben Gulak designed his unique motorcycle with a pair of wheels 1″ apart side fitted into a Yamaha R1 Frame side to  give the ride more stability. The Uno transforms from a unicycle to a motorcycle. Amazingly, the Uno weighs only 120lbs and has no controls, except for a simple on/off switch. To go forward you simply push your body weight forward to tilt the machine. To back up, just lean back on the seat to tilt it backwards and back it goes. The Uno’s speed id controlled by how far you lean forward or back and is completely controlled by an ECU (electronic control unit) which is attached to the motor. The Uno is currently a one-off, but looks and sounds very cool indeed!
