Why is he bothering with the water? Why not just run it from the battery directly? Powering the motorcycle directly from the battery would prevent some level of energy loss, which is inherent in any system where one form of energy is converted to another.

Why are 3 sentences repeated in the story? This reminds me of the “run your car on water” ads in the back of comic books when I was a kid. Is this guy selling those “magic tablets”?

So, this waterbike can run only 310 miles and then one must buy a new one?

Can this water bike run on Evian and Perrier?

If this water bike can even run on dirty water, then I'd say this waterbike comes equipped with a urinal.

Cleveland did too if my memory serves, the Cayuga river while the kook Kucenich was mayor.

“exactly how does it run on water??”

The same way that I live on sunshine and happy thoughts.

Is this an April fools joke or are the writers for the Daily Mail really this gullible? Since the publish date on this is July 22 I think The Daily Mail just lost any credibility with me.

You just need someone to drive a car behind the motorbike to keep the battery charged.

I mean, why not just run this thing of the battery in the first place?

So if this really works and becomes popular, we’ll have to pollute all rivers. Take that, you eco-nuts!
