Like Solar City in Buffalo, NY this project is a sink hole for funds. Neither car owners or motorcycle riders are overly impressed. The comfort and passenger - miles per gallon are not competitive. In most states you would need a motorcycle license and a helmet to operate one.
Actually if you live near a chicken farm the feathers could be used as fill in composite materials and the manure makes methane for a fuel cell. My next vehicle will likely be a Corolla but I still want to streamline my mountain bike and 50cc Honda scooter.
