Invented by 18 year, Ben Gulak - this motorcycle-segway hybrid was first unvieled at the 2008 National Motorcycle Show in Toronto, Canada. With but one switch (on/off) the eco-friendly electric bike is more complicated than it seems. With essentially no controls, the riders shift in weight are what controls the vehicle. You lean forward to speed up, and backward to stop - but remember it is a unicycle. Either way you spin it it's quite the invention too bad the prototypes now only go 15mph! Check out this article on the design of it on Motorcylcemojo.
