I saw one person riding around on one once and I couldn't help but laugh. I would assume they are fun - as are most forms of strange transportation - but they remind me of circus clowns riding tricycles.
Had to edit to say this: I'm not trying to make fun of you guys who ride on them. Go have fun!
Hey, I have fun watching people laughing, and sometimes while riding with a group of 20 of us, I can't help but to laugh under my helmet. What's funnier is watching when these things get modified to the point that brakes hardly work.
I think the world record holder got 106 mph on his, on a quarter mile race track.
But it's funny how we pass cars driving on the street. My buddy got his on the freeway doing 73 mph. That's like having a go cart pass you up, but we are a lot faster.
I miss my real motorcycle....GSX-R 750 baby! RIP...she went to motorcycle heaven.
