    How's it a bike? A 6 tonne pantec also leans while cornering, but it's not
    a bike!

    Uber practical too....not. 50mm longer than the orignal Mini, 200mm
    narrower, but can only carry two adults instead of four and safety
    concerns could see that down to just the driver if it ever sees
    production. Cheers

    Anything with two wheels must lean towards towards the centre of the bend
    if it wants to get round it. Anything with more than two wheels leans the
    opposite way, unless technology intervenes e.g. Nev..'s tilt train. On
    that basis it is motorcycle-like - I never said it was a motorcycle.

    Anyways, I was commenting on its looks, not practicality - there have
    been several other vehicles posted here in the past which are very
    similar in technology, but have the virtue of good looks, however
    impractical they may be. This one is a loser on both counts.

    Pedant. You knew very well I was referring to single track vehicles.
    Yes it does. It's just that the amount is tiny.
    Tilt-train like, to be exact - most trains don't do that. Still, I take
    the point.
    Visually. As the paragraph you snipped made clear. However, if you don't
    think that is valid either, don't feel obliged to keep correcting me, let
    me stew in my own ignorance, I don't mind.
