At first I thought it might have been a joke. I didn't see any photographs of the scooter except for the one on the top of the page, and you had to e-mail the specs of your 'engine' to the developer to get a quote. However, I went through a few of the 'Featured by' links, and came across the following: http://www.gizmag.com/go/4115/ . So, this might actually be real, although I think the guy could use a few more photos on his website, rather than relying on other's to advertise for him.

Doing The Wild Thing

That is so cool. You could have races. On long downhills you would want to do the big lean to the left to get those paws off the ground. I believe such a technique would be yet another example of "doing the wild thing".

OK. Just a little more lean to the left:
