One Wheel Motorcycle

Check out this one wheel motorcycle called appropriately the “UNO”. 18 year old Toronto inventor Ben Gulak has spent two years and $45,000 to develop this self balancing electric motorcycle.

Clean and green this one wheeled motorcyle is powered by two electric motors.

Ben designed his unqiue motorcycle with a pair of wheels 1″ apart side iftted into a Yamaha R1 Frame side to  give the ride more stability.

Riding this one wheeled motorbike is very similar to riding a Segway in that it features a pair of gyroscopes to always keep the rifer upright to accelerate the rider leans forward, to go backwards you just lean back and again you lean into a turn. The degree to which you lean increases or decreases your speed

The Uno’s is powered by two wheelchair motors and has a theoreticaltop speed of 40 mph.

In researching this story we also came across another one wheeled motorcycle prototype this time by recreational vehicle manufacturer Bombardier
