Gear Fab: BMW Powered Twin-Rotor Hoverbike

A fabulous Gear site feature a hover bike.


Estimated at $40,000, if it is ever built.

I would like to see a ballistic parachute, airbags, landing legs/wheels/skids, a lower center of gravity for the center of mass, but for an initial design it looks pretty cool.

Besides recreation uses, would be great for military, police, security, deliveries, and maybe even commuting. Imagine all the tickets revenue sources coming from licensing and improper vehicle use for state and local governments...
