Interesting Monocycle

[gat]

Kerry built his first mono-cycle about 20 years ago from a Riverside motorcycle engine. He has since redefined the whole idea of this type of machine.

He has set the land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats and hand built a V-8, dual quad version

So.......er..........How the hell does the steering work?
I guess you lean?
So are the handlebars just for show....or something to hang on to...?

That guy is nuts! :shock: He was going really quick when he set the record. I think he also crashed it a few times and fucked himself up pretty bad. :|
