Being the klutz that I am, I would probably fall off and end up in the hospital. My mother didn't name me "Grace" for a reason.

Rachel from Iowa found the price. $660 No idea where she found it but posted it back in the beginning posts.

Rachel in Iowa posted the price at $660 back in the earlier posts. She was looking for the price then said she'd found it. I didn't think it was a bad price for something like that either. Think it would be so fun to play with but I'd have to move to town where there were smooth surfaces. LOL

I'm not even sure if I would be comfortable with my feet so far back, and it looked as if the model's shoes would get scuffed too.

Yes, any little lump in the pavement and you would snag your toe and end up face forward I think.

I would gladly be the old age official tester. Even do it for free lol Actually it would be great just to use to get from parking lots into stores and ect L wouldn't have to worry about if I could walk that far or not

I wonder what the weight limit is on it.

Wow- that thing is incredible, and only $660?

This is probably where the original poster found the price:
http://www.mahalo.com/honda-u3x

But I cannot independently verify that the U3-X is in fact anything other than a working prototype. Since the "X" is for "eXperimental" it may be a while yet before this is available for purchase in the US.

I'm pretty certain that if this were something that could be purchased already, we'd have seen commercials & ads by now, not a video from 2 years ago.

It's totally cool though, and I am absolutely putting it on my list of new toys to buy whenever it does come out (especially at $660!!) :)
