you ride it like this
http://www.pistonheads.com/news/images/6048-4.jpg and only in a straight line I think https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png unless they have a linkage in the suspension that lets the wheels go up and down on opposite sides without activating the springs/dampers. J |
it appears that eacgh of the four wheels is articulated... when cornering left, the right wheel would move down and the left wheel up, so you'd be able to lean and still have all 4 on the pavement.

ok thanks for the picture of how to ride it that's just insane I dunno there's something about spending 250,000 on one of em.... I'll pass. As for steering sinful7 is right they said somewhere in an article I read about that thing that it is meant to perform well on country curvy roads as well as on the track, but I dunno having talked to people that have vipers or have driven them and they have trouble at times keeping them straight because of the power I can't imagine what that power would do to that bike.

yeah i have no doubt about that but one buddy of mine specifically is a professional race car driver working his way up to F1 class and even he says at times that the Viper's power is hard to handle, course I guess he's also used to the little bathtub F1 cars that stick to the pavement much better. None the less for 250,000 I'd rather get a few other things then that thing

Holy ****, since when does a Viper cost $250,000???
http://us.autos1.yimg.com/autos.yaho.../03/VIPER6.jpg Try $79,995, unless you're talking about a prepared viper... then there can be some serious cash involved. |

don't they present some concept vehicles when they really don't operate? like, with no engine, just for show? I wonder if they've really had one of these driveable, and what the tests were like...
