Sounds possibly very useful for city people. They wouldn't have to deal with the problems of parking and storage.

But they will have to deal with parking and storage issues. IT is, in many respects, a $3000 bicycle. When it's not being ridden it's going to have to be locked up to stop people from taking it and throwing it into the back of a truck. Even if the lock and key system is foolproof (doubtful), there's always the parts/scrap market.

Besides I'm sure that IT can't be stored outside in all types of weather. And IT needs to be stored near an outlet so that the batteries can be recharged. Therefore, IT will need indoor storage, which will be an issue.

Well, Ginger would be a good idea if these issues you raised were addressed. I would be intrigued if this machine could get up to 40-50 MPH (I'll bet I could do some "Tweaking" to make THAT happen...) and had some way of NOT sliding into a wall if the ground was slippery. As for security, I'll bet that the "Joystick" is removable and uses an electronic key that disables the lower pedistal unless the EXACT joystick is firmly installed.
Power might be from a removable battery pack (Yet another possible security measure) that the owner keeps until he/she gets to an outlet where it can be plugged in for the duration of "It's" non-usage.
"It" simply MUST be waterproof. Kamen's not blind. I'm sure he'd insulate all parts that might become damaged from moisture.
Just my thoughts...

Just bring IT into the office with you.

Just gotta work it by office management. Hide IT Under your desk.
