Hey! that's my bike!! My name is Tron.

I think it looks kind of cool. And in spite of it's design it's actually quite comfortable. It's body is made entirely of Nerf material.

Maybe someone can tell me how the rider would stay on the seat at any reasonable speed without velcroe?

I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I am sure it has some sort of futuristic sphincter lock device. ;D  Or maybe something as simple as a "probe" that comes up from the seat. ;D

It looks a little long for tight cornering. Maybe it's meant to be a dragster?

I think the seat is velcro'd on, you remove the seat, sit on the bike & fasten the seat to your head as a helmet.  I'm sure it has a seatbelt too ;) ;D ;D

Hmmmnnn, another "concept bike", yuck. Take the Ferrari badge (and the cred that goes with it) off and you've got an ugly red sausage that looks about as interesting as a night out with a maths teacher.................. (yawn)  :P

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Nope, she's fat, 50, and there's long black hairs growing out the wart on the side of her nose..........  :P

No way that's my mom Terry, your description is all wrong.  You didn't even mention the hunchback thing.  Pffft, no attention to detail whatsoever.   ::)
