I wouldn't mind having this bike just for the fun of it.

Yeah, cause nothin' says safe like a canister of hydrogen squeezed between your legs at 50mph. ;)

But...it's so ugly! If it's not a chopper, what's the point?

almost as much fun as a vespa!

I'll be sure to beat up anyone I see riding one of these wussy things, so long as they are not larger than me.

Can I make a rude comment now? :p

That's why I needed to add the disclaimer. :)

Possibly women. Or midgets. Many 12 year-olds as well.

Possibly women. Or midgets. Many 12 year-olds as well.I figured. That's your usual MO.
But not the OP.Oh, no way. Have you met Name? He's the strong quiet type. Unlike NM...;)

Actually I'm quite friendly with Name which is why I know NM wouldn't be beating him up, or attempting to. ;)

and besides I'm a pretty big guy, not huge, but not small either. I would probably look pretty funny on that bike, but would be fun none the less, kinda like a moped would be fun(as long as noone saw me on it) ;)

Don't know name but if he is big, then yeah, I would not be kicking his ass likely. Unless I had a nice tire iron. Or maybe a hedge clipper. A big one, with a red handle.

Chances are, you'd start to swing, and I'd already be headed off into the sunset with your girl on the back of the bike. :D

Nah, no way my girl would get on some gay fuel cell vespa. :)

maybe not, but she'd probably get on my other bike.

and you should never underestimate the power of a fuel cell powered vespa.

I ride a sportster everyday. does me well, and handles very quickly.

but the cool thing about the fuel cell bike, is you'd never hear me coming.

Sorry, fuel cell bike is still lame. I've worked on hybrid cars in the past (late 90's in college) and they are sweet running in electric mode in that they are silent, but it just doesn't seem like much fun for a bike. A bike should be mean and loud and in some way rebellious.

Would be fun to watch one explode though! Maybe crash the gay bike into a gay-ass prius or insight.

would depend on the acceleration, if it accelerates quickly, would be a great around town bike. but not good for long distance cruising or highway.

Chances are, you'd start to swing, and I'd already be headed off into the sunset with your girl on the back of the bike. :D ummmm....nope. Only way I'd get on that thing is if it was a requirement for an MA quest. As for your other bike, isn't that the chick Harley? Maybe I'd ride it if I was stealing it, but then you wouldn't be on it! ;)

sure, if you call the bike that holds the landspeed record for pushrod engine bikes a chick bike......... But my bike is very much a girl bike.....two jugs, excellent curves, high maintenance, and an attitude to boot. :D
