Hi Roy and All, ... It may adjust to the weight supporting wise, but it really will screw up handling!!!! I'm assuming a 2f1r configuration. Each wheel must...
Hi Roy and All, ... Reread this, ... What does that say? ... So what is wrong with a system that works off the pivot shaft from the rear chassis to stay...
Hi Roy, John and All, Nice post John, you put things right into perspective! But I'm afraid it like trying to lead the blind as none are so blind as those who...
Hi Arthur and All, ... Yes it does as many other things go into safety like crash protection, max cornering ability, ect. I doubt a automatic steering system...
... mechnical ... Hi John and all, no matter how cool the design, were still going to get the same response----(WHY?) One day it hit me, I came up with the...
Hi Phillip and All, ... Does the song, Blinded by the Light, mean anything to you? If you try to call any vehicle as small as yours safe, you will be laughed...
Hi Phillip and All, Seems the bar has been raised as the 'GM Lean Machine 1983' under yahoo on Max Hall's TTW page say it did 1.2G which is what I had thought...
... From: jerry dycus <jerry5335@...> ... That's backwards. It is the heavy end of a car that develops larger slip angles, given equal tires and roll...

Jerry (mostly), I feel there is already a possibility to use electric FF motorcycles, but we need the infrastructure to be updated to allow quick battery...
snip ... I think Phillip pointed out that this was not the case with FTC. The CS action is virtually undetectable, because of the short time it takes to ...
snip ... snip ... Now here I can agree (as I have before). I can see no reason why this won't work. Hopefully you will have a car seat and reclined, feet...
snip ... As a professional engineer, I probably shouldn't agree with you about engineers, but most engineers (like most other people) lack creativity. They do...
Hi Arthur and All, On naming conventions it's a hard call as there doesn't seen to be good standards so maybe explains in more detail may be in orders as this...
Hi Arthur and All, First let me say there are many good, talented engineers of which you seem to be one. But as you said too, there are also many that have...
snip ... You answered it yourself. No. An all wheel tilter is pivoting about the virtual contact patches, whereas the Gyro is pivoting the front section only....
Hi Bob and All, ... So you believe that weight on the tire doesn't equal traction, everything else equal? While it will develop large slip angles, it won't ...
Hi Arthur and All, ... You didn't answer this. If they are not the same, explain how they are different? ... No, and let's not try to be cute here. Give ...
... From: jerry dycus <jerry5335@...> ... Basic Physics says that friction is proportional to weight, so it should not matter anyway. However, the...

Hi Arthur and All, ... This isn't a good question? Are not the forces the same? I understand they go about it differently but the basics are the same where...

Gerry....... what can I say, you remind me of myself a long time ago!!!.... However, you will be pleased to know that I don't think the GIRO is a bad thing. If...
... Yep, got 6 seconds of video Phillip - two guys talking and a white light (torch?) moving around slightly. If I can find two cocoa tins maybe we could get a...
snip ... It doesn't come across that way. snip ... If you took the trouble to actually study the subject you would understand the terminology. snip ... ...

... doing a long video of the vehicle which will go on DVD..... but I will be able to send a short clip to get you hooked. Phillip Arthur and Gerry:........

Look very closely and see that the vehicle automatically opposite locks when it oversteers out of grip.... even though it is tilted one way if the inertia load...
