THIS MACHINE has been doing the rounds across the internet for the last month or two, so we thought we'd give you first dibs with this funky online video released by its creator, Julian RONDINO.

The machine's an inline three-wheel concept, featuring hub-centre steering, KTM V-twin engine and 14-inch wheels.

It's a different, refreshing approach but can you see it going into production?

We can't either.

Stupid.

We ride two wheelers for a reason...that they are the best.

This is obviously just a "Design Studio" concept done by a designer to 'showcase' his design talent. It has no engineering merit (or artistic merit in my opinion).

 If there appeared to be an engineering, stability or handling advantage then I could see it might be something that could be worth doing as a concept, but as it is - all show, no go.

About as innovative as the Tyrrell-Rord P34 Six Wheeled F1 Sports Car. Yes, it can be done, but in the real world, it's not entirely practical or economical.

Looks kinda weird too, but that's not to detract from the designers hard work and innovative capabilities.

The question is; is it really better than what we have now?

Uh, that was "Tyrrell-Ford P34" by the way. There's a Gremlin on my keyboard!!
