How do you roll the windows down?

I can see how this would be a good commuter vehicle for the narrow streets in Europe but in the US it wouldn't make much sense.

It would be a real blast. But at $80,000.00 a pop they may not fly out the door around here.
But I would like to have one.

OK...you had me hooked on the title...BUT...YOU SUCK! LOL

It's a good idea...not My cuo of tea...but hey...the concept is awesome! I think it would be a good addition to the road here for people wanting something between a car and bike. but at 80K...we need to bring it down considerably! It can be that high tech!

now if you can come up with something to cure fuel mileage and vibration you could stop a lot of people's complaints around here...it's a motorcycle, get used to it or sell it. if i didn't feel the wind in my face and feel the vibration while riding i would be in my truck. as for the mileage thing...it could be my worst mileage day ever on the bike and it would still be better than my truck.

didn't mean to highjack the thread...
sorry about the rant...
