AOW Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 believe original concept was by BMY called the Schneekrad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBBaron Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) My first question was "How could they steer that thing?"That modestly loaded front tire would have difficultly overcoming the strong forces from the tracks keeping the vehicle going straight. However apparently it has track brakes which are activated when turning the handlebar making it act like a skid steer or any other tracked vehicle.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SdKfz_2So now my question is "Why bother with the front wheel?"Either way it is not a motorcycle, but it sure would be cool driving one. Though I'm guessing very modest top speeds.Craig Edited August 10, 2010 by CBBaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I'd wheelie that bitch! But yeah, the front wheel is kinda pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
