First US MonoTracer

Ride in the first MonoTracer in the US piloted by inventor / president of PERAVES AG (the manufacturer): Arnold Wagner. Thaks to the owner, Shinji for letting me have a go!

The vehicle on the GPS is a Monotracer!

It doesn't sound like what you hear in the video. There must of been some sort of hormonic with the camera's mic.

the cabin noise is terrible!

[huey130]

@theLostTruckerDude It's some sort of harmonic the mic amplified. It's not that loud. We're speaking in a normal voice in the video.

[huey130]

The switch on the bar is to raise and lower the gear they're not automatic. They will not retract at a standstill however. There's an override switch on the dash in case you're working on it (or to show off how fast the retract mechanism is when it's in my shop).

It does have a heater and air-conditioner. You have to control the outrigger wheels. You can see the thumb switch that controls them on the left clip-on. They're not automatic.

СКОЛЬКО ЭТО ЧУДО СТОИТ

[magiccaloy1972]

you need an earpiece and a mic to communicate with each other.

be nice if it catches, but sadly only way it's commin to the states officially is if ya buy it there and ship it here, or buy it from an imports surplus dealer. quite a few of them around here but no mono's on the lot, might have to special order one if ya want it like right away and lack funds to jump the water

[DEATH111183]

@Drednots chances are, gm nore ford will buy it, ya gotta get a cycle company to buy rights to the designs, like kawasaki, or honda, hell even if harley got on the bandwagon, they'd stand to make some serious bank. problem is, any bike ya buy in the states costs as much ifnot more than a car, hell i trolled a cycle shop a year or two back, they wanted like 30k for a tiny ass bike, and i was like "shit, for that kinda money i'd be better off buyin a used car and fixing it"

LMAO everyone in their cars must be like "OMFG UDO!" (unidentified driving object)

[remotaurog]

[jacqueskim]

Good ides but anyway this is a bike!

@jmshaw357 I think when more people know about these they would become popular too. I know a lot of people who have never even heard of these things.

[jmshaw357]

If nice economy cars are sold profitably for less than $20K USD why can't this be marketted profitably for less, say $15K?

[jmshaw357]

@halflife103 Cars were accepted and popular, as well as propfitable from the very start. EVERYTHING is in a constant state of refinement.
