  • Hmmmm, good for off-road and rural I suppose but how does it do on the highway?

  • @stayjit1 4MC No.2 and 4MC No.3 You Tube videos should answer your question.

  • No wheels were locked up, its just a trick of the camera

  • What diff does it use? Is it a one-off? Something made by Quaiffe? Or does it come from a donor car?

  • @akumabito2008

    Hi, I made a new diff casing to hold the crown wheel and pinions which were sourced from a lightweight car.

  • is a differential needed for something this short on axl length?... looks good for british winter riding!

  • Yes a differential is required, especially with the 4MC's tight turning circle. The prototype in the video also has a differential. The sliding is just an extreme way of showing how stable the 4MC concept is, even on a surface covered in oil. It is not necessary to slide the 4MC to ride it on a slippery surface its just more fun to do so and visually demonstrates its stability beyond question. 4MC video No.3 shows the 4MC prototype going around some cones on the same surface without sliding.

  • year after year still waiting. If using an electric motor driven. It is very good.

  • When will building to sell?

  • @MrHoppyX could take motor vehicle code as example... for instance, here, our code says that two wheels, contact patch 450mm or less apart, is considered, legally, one wheel.

  • @ValorousKnight Four wheeled motorbike would be a contradiction, but it doesn't say that.

  • Excellent. But who invented them is not for sale. But to sell the concept to the manufacturer.

  • awesome!! and i agree, it does look like tremendous fun :D

  • I like Four Wheeled Motorcycle 4MC. But I don't like Quadro 4D.

    if build sell very great. I will first person at buy.

  • Four wheels! So that'll be a quad then!

  • This is for people who wanna be bikers, but are to pussy to ride. It's a 4 wheeler, not a motorcycle
