Weird Moto Undone Looks Like A Dangerous Ride

Posted: 09 Nov 2011 12:20 AM PST

Thankfully it’s just a concept. Short of riding a block of ice on two wheels, the Moto Undone is a bizarre take on camouflage ingenuity. It’s a 1,000w electric motorcycle whose body is covered in shiny chrome. The effect is, from a distance, the rider looks like he/she is floating in mid air. An awesome sight until an accident happens. Doesn’t seem to bother the guy in the picture though.
