Merry Christmas to all.


I think the driver of the Elio in this video is a motorcycle rider with a lot of miles under his belt.

If you notice in the video, in many corners he leans his body even though the vehicle is not leaning.

I had wondered if I would be doing this very thing in my Elio, and now I have my answer.

I would almost think it's like a natural instinct for the way you sit in it.
Of course I have had a couple of passengers on my bike that have never ridden and it came close to wiping us out because they leaned the opposite direction going through a turn (scared the hell out of me).:shocked:

So I think for those of us that have ridden we will have that instinct to lean; why not, I do it in my car now when I'm driving :becky:

Having a passenger who leans the wrong way is definitely not good.

A feeling that is strange is someone helping you push a bike and both are trying to balance it. Both end up fighting each other and it feels like the bike is about to fall.

I think it's Stu Lichter driving.
