It has the look of a motorcycle but the range and mph hour of a scooter.

Never say never, technology is moving at a record pace, this thing could go 150mph in a couple of years.

I saw a (what ever it was) thing?? in traffic, other day. It looked like a Segway with a scooter grafted onto the back. I don't think I want one but I would like a closer look.

That almost looks like one of those new little energy efficient cars. Everytime I see one I think how bad would be if they wrecked I feel safer on my bike at least I know they can accelerate.
