DIY enclosed single-seater reverse trike
 

I swear this is the last video that I am watching that YouTube suggested while I logged out.

It is curious, he usually gestures what is is going to do instead of saying, presumably because he has an accent, and not everybody understands English (with or without an accent), but I don't necessarily understand what he means, and then he does it, so I don't understand why he gestures in the first place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f708GtL6tns Then people convinced him to convert it into a trike, so he did a quadruple brain transplant with an ATV.

Sid would be proud! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov9n-JwujwE Some of his other videos are interesting. He built an engine from scratch with a new type of intake and exhaust, but it didn't work by the time he finished the first video.

He increased tolerances over and over in the second video and finally got it to work, but so far he hasn't done anything with it.

He made a katana out of titanium--he epoxied a piece of epoxy between 2 of steel, and then used other metals, like he put bronze dowels into beveled holes he drilled into the blade, hammered them, and then ground them, so the plugs flared around the bevels.

I don't know if this was easier than buying one piece of titanium three times as thick, just that it was probably cheaper.

I thought it made for a cooler video, too.

:thumbup: for the craftmanship. I appreciate anyone who can get anything done and still retain the majority of their fingers:)

A few loose thoughts I had:

• Clean up the back! It is begging for a Kamm shape.
• The initial 2-wheel version definitely gets better milage than the 3-wheel (assuming it stays upright).
• I wonder how hot it gets in there? Even without the sun on the greenhouse, it would get hot and stuffy from body heat.

An ATV wouldn't be a good basis for a fuel-efficient commuter and he needs some kind of airflow! :)

He did tint the top, but 3m clear window film on the rest of the windows would help prevent greenhouse effect.

I am sure that he wants a solar oven (in colder months) or to retain his body heat, but not both.

Does he benefit from having the open front? :)

I know that the back makes the largest difference by far, but only having fenders cover 1/4 of the tread doesn't seem helpful.

I wish that I knew the MPG of the scooter, the 2-wheeler, and the 3-wheeler.

Their story runs parallel to Arcimoto since 2007, but they opted for single-wheel drive and buried the passenger seat. :(

Notice the auxiliary side-wheels, quite like an oversized version of those which are fitted to bicycles for children.

This guy made an urban mini car.
 

He previously made a gocart.
In this video, he converted it into the minicar.
He has made more interesting-looking videos, but after a day... or a week... I'm going to act like a human boy for one minute, act like a person, act like a human boy.
This is finals week! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiCFrq2MP1s By the way, I first looked for this in https://ecomodder.com/forum/motorcycles-scooters-5.html Why didn't I originally create this there?! :)

"May the road rise up to meet you". Just don't fall flat on your face.

Would be quite useful for some errands when there is rain on the weather forecast

He converted it into an EV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5ngD4j8b40 He built a motorcycle canopy, which doesn't seem like his first, or at least his first video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EEFrMB0ZS8 He combined two engines into one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvtC7BXqdPc He tries to make a hoverbike. He doesn't get as far as Colin Furze, who complimented him in the comments, but at least this guy made an effort to make it safe! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGJ4mjI7AHM
