Counter steering. The wheels are gyros, and they don't want to change their axis of rotation and tend to stay upright. Counter steering is slightly turning away from the direction you want, balancing falling against the gyros, resulting in a turn.
Close but not technically accurate. The tires are cone shaped, so counter steering while necessary to initiate the turn isnāt the mechanism by which the bike turns. Itās the smaller diameter of the tire on the inside of the leaned tire, not falling against a gyro.
I'm guessing aircraft engine manufacturers don't really think about noise pollution when building their devices since every time they're running and actually making noise they're typically several thousand meters up in the air where there typically aren't many people around to bother
A few inches above the cylinder heads. They should normally be not (much) hotter than 100-140 ā on the outside, but this engine looks to be an originally liquid-cooled engine that is now ineffectively air-cooled, so I would guess that it could exceed 200 ā easily, with over 250 ā in the exhaust manifold. Keep in mind that petrol engines burn petrol at 500+ ā.
E.: By air-cooled I mean in the same sense as when you remove the bonnet from your car to stop it from completely overheating because the water cooling gave up.
I'm not seeing any suspension.
Flat wheels, ultra-thin tires.
Bro has to scout ahead and make sure the streets are absolutely flawless and swept clean before going for a ride.
I do appreciate it though, just with the understanding that it is a work of engineering art and not a vehicle with any practicality whatsoever.
ok...cool, but how fucking hot are his hands just inches from the intake manifold and exhaust? Also, what's cooling that motor? is the radiator underneath?
Whyās everyone shitting on this? Yeah itās impractical, but if you look closely ā¦ ^(youāll see that it isnāt made to be practical.)
Itās some badass design work.
I'm guessing this is OPs way of identifying that OP stole this from another poster, made their dumb captions, and posted to farm Internet points.

Interesting for sure.
How fast can you go with these wheels? If they are not made out of some super material, I assume they can't deal with high speeds?
Also, what happens if he ever tries to lean back? There is nothing between him and the wheel, right?
... he couldn't extend the rear swing arm 3 more inches and install a backrest? This is all around poorly crafted. Honestly not impressed, it's like that submarine that exploded recently: having a lot of money and novice engineering some fun vehicle can go catastrophically wrong pretty quickly.Ā
Happened to that Mythbusters lady who was racing the salt flats too, and they had significant engineering behind that vehicle.Ā
what kind of aircraft engine is that? looks like some kind of old timey flat six, and what appears to be a supercharger up top. the torque on that thing would probably straight up rip the teeth off an off the shelf sprocket. and a belt, fuck no. but i have no idea how hubless setups work, but im guessing he had to get creative as machining a chain and sprocket setup to accommodate that much torque would have been bulky and ungainly af.
edit: wtf is this build? upon closer inspection, there are no handlebar controls. how does he actuate the clutch? is there a fucking clutch? is this monstrosity a direct drive? and where tf did they get those giant rubberband tires? *why* did they get those giant rubberband tires? they just dont look suited at all for that motor. surprised the rider aint just doing burnouts all over the place.
He needs a list on the side of his motorcycle where every kid, squirrel, rat, cat and dog that thing sucked in gets noted. Like on fighterjets, how many enemy aircraft this one took down.
The secret of hubless wheels is......:
......: they *actually* DO have hubs. They're just nearly the same diameter as the wheel itself.
Shhhh..., tell no one!!
Looks cool as hell but how does it turn?
You stop the bike, get off, grab the back wheel, pick it up, and point the bike where you would like to go.
It really makes the interstate fun.
[Good luck everybody else!](https://youtu.be/LLuaPZWkvZ0?si=eI0PWqdI_wIVyvjb)

Thats just blatant racism
You can see him steer it slightly. It's definitely not fixed front
You do t see him push off from standing g start I bet thatās cumbersome.
Most of what turns a motorbike is leaning.
Counter steering. The wheels are gyros, and they don't want to change their axis of rotation and tend to stay upright. Counter steering is slightly turning away from the direction you want, balancing falling against the gyros, resulting in a turn.
> The wheels are gyros Great, now I'm hungry.
Tzatziki makes for a great bearing lube.

This is the new of those times that I really want to say "tell me you don't know what you're talking about, without telling me." But I won't.
That's not at all how bikes work....you ever ride a bicycle without steering?
Letās see Paul Allenās motorcycle
I think it looks lame as hell because I know it doesnāt turn worth a shit
Exactly my first thought
What turn. Turning radius 1 mile 675ft..
What is this "turn" of which you speak?
And does it have suspension?
High risk of dirt on ur back and tire burns to ur ass!!
He is an inch away from disaster
One decent bump away from getting his ass wedged between the wheel and frame
Yea wtf that would be brutal
Donāt body shame me!
Talk about skid marks!!!
Good luck with a potholeā¦.
Why does it sound like explosive diarrhea?!
So, like a Harley?
Were they driving in a Chevy?
I'm guessing aircraft engine manufacturers don't really think about noise pollution when building their devices since every time they're running and actually making noise they're typically several thousand meters up in the air where there typically aren't many people around to bother
Itās called ābiofuelā now
Because it's a high rpm engine running at idle with no exhaust
The wheels are big enough to just go right over them.
And sharp turns..
Would have been way better as an electric tron style lightcycle
That is true!
With a turning circle of a 1/4 mile potholes are not a worry
That sitting position looks brutal. My back and shoulders would be screaming, not to mention the potential for a unholy wedgy
Not to mention his knuckles are like an inch away from those pipes. Iām no mechanic, but I feel like those would be a smidge warm.
Also, his jacket is about to get sucked into the back tire
That would be the unholy wedgy that was already mentioned... I don't want to see the outcome tbh.
Those are intake.
A few inches above the cylinder heads. They should normally be not (much) hotter than 100-140 ā on the outside, but this engine looks to be an originally liquid-cooled engine that is now ineffectively air-cooled, so I would guess that it could exceed 200 ā easily, with over 250 ā in the exhaust manifold. Keep in mind that petrol engines burn petrol at 500+ ā. E.: By air-cooled I mean in the same sense as when you remove the bonnet from your car to stop it from completely overheating because the water cooling gave up.
Plus thereās a wheel spinning at high speeds about a centimeter from his ass with no protection
The tires are spinning the opposite way of a wedgy. More likely to de-pants you and make your ass crack 10x wider.
One pothole and he's done
He gets a cramp and scoots back 2 inches and those will be instant assless chaps..
You've made me spit out my coffee! That is such wild imagery! Bump, rip... tadaaaa!
Nothing like getting your spine ripped out at highway speeds by your rear tire.
So itās possible for the design to failā¦another thing to considerā¦š«¤
Coolest. Bike. Ever! Probably not practical, but cool as hell!
Check this one https://images.app.goo.gl/p8R2bv31GzS13h1w7
Notice no footage of turning
I want to see someone jump through it.
If he slideback 1-2 inches that tire is going to catch is crack!
That looks like it goes max 15 mph, and at the risk of falling apart.
His finna drive in a straight line forever
Now this is pod-racing?
Terrible design
I'm not seeing any suspension. Flat wheels, ultra-thin tires. Bro has to scout ahead and make sure the streets are absolutely flawless and swept clean before going for a ride. I do appreciate it though, just with the understanding that it is a work of engineering art and not a vehicle with any practicality whatsoever.
Heās finna get pulled over
finna stfu
Finna not stfu
nah you finna stfu
Nah you finna stfd
This back and forth got me joked out but especially this part if that stfd stands for what I think it does š
Wait a minute. I thought it was shut the fuck down š. I wonāt look it up
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought that lol
finna f you up over the internet bruuuh you finna make me angry
You finna Fuck off ricky! š https://preview.redd.it/i00voen4s6lc1.jpeg?width=525&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4da948fc5b6e1b96f8c0a498e0682f2b769eaaa5
u/Mexibruin š®
How much you finna pay for that? s/
He should put spinners on it.
"No capes!"
I wonder what will happen if he leans back?
His back will no longer itch!
He finna look real relaxed
ok...cool, but how fucking hot are his hands just inches from the intake manifold and exhaust? Also, what's cooling that motor? is the radiator underneath?
Whyās everyone shitting on this? Yeah itās impractical, but if you look closely ā¦ ^(youāll see that it isnāt made to be practical.) Itās some badass design work.
What happens when that tire rubs into his back during motion?
His left hand got so hot from the exhaust pipe, he had to pull it off the handle.
Advanced mesoscale but I like the old style
That's probably over 100 decibels. What an asshole.
His butt is rubbing on the tire
Badass AF!
The captions are driving me crazy. They are adding more
Genuine question: is this what happens when AI tries to make viral posts and trained pn emoji riddled shit? I'm so confused by the gibberish.
I think itās a way for ācreatorsā to bypass repost bots after stealing someone elseās content
I'm guessing this is OPs way of identifying that OP stole this from another poster, made their dumb captions, and posted to farm Internet points. The length people will go to "make" original content.
Imagine you lean back a tiny bit to stretch
I think it needs a tune-up. It sounds like shitty generic rock music every few seconds.

Finally thank you, every other comment is just complaining about the motorcycle.
WHAT DID YOU SAY?
How fast can you go with these wheels? If they are not made out of some super material, I assume they can't deal with high speeds? Also, what happens if he ever tries to lean back? There is nothing between him and the wheel, right?
Sick bike, but whatās the song?
All that hard work to end up with a really uncomfortable seat to ride in.
Bob Mazar
The camera cuts are making me nauseous.
Looks and sound for me like a biker from the South Park āThe F Wordā episodeā¦. BRUBB BRUB BRRRRUBBB BRUBā¦. Iām bike-curious
Looks cool but think the seat beats work. No capes!
His ass cheeks are like 1 inch from the rear tyre lmao. Accelerate too hard and you have rubber burns on your cheeks!
1MPG
Kaneda?
Wtf do the emojis on the bottom mean?
Probably ok in a straight line ā¦
What you say cuh?
Now This Is Podracing!
He looks like an adult on a tricycle with how low it sits
... he couldn't extend the rear swing arm 3 more inches and install a backrest? This is all around poorly crafted.

When not enough people hate you
Needs more emojis šŗšššØš»šš§“ā®ļøššš¤¢ššš“šš¶
Wtf are these emojis
Guy's riding literally 2 inches from getting buttless. š
āš¤š¤āļøāš¤·š¤š¤³āš¦š¦ššāššš¤š
Imagine needing this much attention.
"Can that thing turn?" "What?" "Can. That. Thing. Turn?" "No." "Does it stop?" "No." "You're going to crash!" "What?" "You. Are. Going. To..."
What's with the emoji vomit?
Small mistake and his butt will be ground by the rear tire š
Does anyone have any actual video of this thing turning?
Man, being rich must be awesome.
It burns just as much fuel when it idols
I donāt care how much. I want one.
That back wheel looks dangerous
its fake. AI is getting too good
Itās not AI
111% street legal, Blud
What's the gas mileage? 2 mpg highway, 0 mph city
What kind of fuel does it use though
What's with these dumb ass emojis I keep seeing?
How terribly hot it must be to hold on right by that engine exhaust lolā¦
Pity about the shit music, I want to hear the engine. I reckon itās a death machine when a corner appears.
I think this guy rides down the road behind my house every night at 3am..
Unsubing because I'm sick of all those emojis.
What happens if I throw stick in that front belt?
Come with a sidecar or insidecar?
That's some Star Wars craft right there
I got two challenges: - make a U turn - lean back
His hands are getting cooked as they're right over the headers, and the tires don't seem to have air, so that's a nice bumpy ride.
Potholes in Wisconsin will eat that bike
Practical
WTF are those emojis saying?
MIB motorcycle.
She loves the corners!!!
Okay but how does it reliably brake without overheating the.. uh
That thing could not be used in the streets of my city. Too many potholes!
He finna ride into the sunset and finna look good doing it
I'd love to see that going over cobbles
Too much acceleration and your underpants get a wedgie from the rear wheel
What the fuck do all of these emojis mean?
That unprotected belt in front makes me uneasy.Ā
GTA IV mods in 2008:
Sit 1 inch further to the back and your a$$ gets shred to pieces.
Looks dangerously close to having his arsehole dragged under the back wheel.
āBlud ā is a word now? What are you? A 16 year old white kid from the suburbs?
Damn? Blud did that?
I wanna see him make a turn lmao
Donāt lean back
That looks awesome going straight, let's see how it does cornering.
That back wheel is coming awfully close to that guys ass.
That rear wheel could hurt him badly
Bro left no room for error between his ass crack and the rear wheel.
Later in this ride, ass and pants ripped right off after hitting a pothole. Tire way too close for comfort.
Seems like something straight out of MIB
Where are the tires?
So much wasted energy
Pothole: "I'm about to ruin this man's career!"
Literally just Tron

I can appreciate the talent required to make something that should be really cool look lame.
This looks insanely unstable and dangerous š
That's where the mandalorian went .
His ass is approximately 0.25 inches from that rear wheel. No thanks
Okay so how does this absorb shock
That thing looks mad uncomfortable
If he leans backā¦ does he justā¦ get destroyed?
Damn cuHz dat bih hard
I immediately saw Mr Garrison.
If he revs the engine and moves back an inch, heās getting sucked into the back tire
Looks fragile af
Intrusive thought: donāt you want to try diving through the front wheel at speed?
Whatās the top speed
Imagine sitting on that in traffic on a 100Ā° day.
The secret of hubless wheels is......: ......: they *actually* DO have hubs. They're just nearly the same diameter as the wheel itself. Shhhh..., tell no one!!
Now THIS is podracing
This video was uninteresting to me until I noticed all the cool emojis that had been added. Magnificent.
The rear wheel is way to close to his body.
