@motanelustelistu,

Do a Youtube search on "LIT C-1" and you'll see their new model which is very much like the Quasar in many ways. But it has gyro-stabilization from a pair of fly-wheels, which the Quasar didn't have. If the Quasar had that feature back then, it could have been more successful.

how much do they go for?

this was for sale ,is it still?

[manofsan]

reall looks beautiful - but how safe is it in an accident? Can it be equipped with airbags?

[motanelustelistu]

@manofsan Thats the dummest thing i've ever heared . No , it cant cuz 1: It doesn't have a steering wheel 2:It won't make any difference when u fall and slide under a van or truck won't it?:)

[manofsan]

@motanelustelistu,

Well, there are plenty of cars that have multiple airbags in places other than the steering wheel, so don't let that be a show-stopper.

Regarding when you fall, I'm wondering if the enclosed frame could be designed to keep you safe - at least safer than if you were on a regular motorcycle. I'm sure you've heard of Monotracers and other enclosed 2-wheel vehicles, haven't you?

@manofsan So ? mate your not safe if anything hit u the car side door , cuz its 10 cm away , this is basicly "glued" to you. The metal in the door would bend end send energy away , composite wont , it will send energy till the braking point its reached then it just tear apart in that place only. Ok airbags in other places but that wont stop u get hurt cuz that deflate. I rather be on a normal bike with an airbag jacket on me then in this , and i would be safer.

[motanelustelistu]

@manofsan And even if u fill up the cabine with a non deflateable airbags wont help much cuz glass will brake them,that if u can get airbags in it when its basicly touching your arm legs etc.

@manofsan Best replace for a bike its actualy another bike like this on /watch?v=T6ZYXTcMfXo&feature=r­elated or this one /watch?v=0pLSy0giS3Y&feature=r­elated. Its useless to enclose a bike cuz then u loose the bike and freedoom of the bike, just buy a 3 wheeler or a car instead .

@motanelustelistu,

Take a look at this video: YQgTne7TAGY

What do you think of that? It's the LTI C-1, and it could be the next Quasar
