The world just got a little fatter.
Aside from kickarse jousting events with friends I don't see a reason for this. I can see great applications for the handicapped but not for your average Joe. That being said I can't wait to try one |

You remember the movie Wall-E? Human kind will get fat and not be able to walk anymore....then when the space ship tilts and people call off their U3-x, they'll be like a bunch of jelly on the floor. haha

I would totally joust with this. Since it seems like an indoor only tool, they need to make the seats much, much larger for their primary audience.
I also agree that the world got one more step closer to this: -g

Honda probably made it more for bragging right purposes. To show off that they can design something 1 step ahead of the rest. Oviously its kinda pointless, and a waste of money since you can walk and stand which doesnt cost a dime since its human nature, rather then riding that while looking at art which will cost alot, which is what they are doing at the end of the video

It's not a new concept, but the implications for the future are great. I remember when Bombardier released a sketch of concept superbike with one wheel just a few years ago. If anyone can do it Honda can certainly implement a real product.
Look at the Segway. There's a current need, especially for something so compact. Think of people that are mobility challenged and products like the Rascal type scooters. |

It would be useful if you lived in a city where space is at a premium and speed is a rarity. Great for grabbing groceries or something I would think. Then again, that's what I think bicycles are for.
