Looks interesting. Does the extra ground clearance affect handling much? Would be a good way to see over the top of the tin-tops.

After you climb on it handles the same as a standard bike, until time to stop and dismount. :lol:
After some practice it gets easy. Its a good feeling to look down on the cars. Bob

Until you come across that bloke that from a distance looked like he was fiddling with a phone in his lap... :shock:
