Not a new concept. Lots of Harleys have been powered by hot air for decades.

I think you're confusing Harley Owners with Harleys themselves...  crazy2

seems like supersoaker meets motorcycle. Needs some pedals for when the air runs out. As long as you're riding the same path everyday and have the air timed out right compressor to compressor it should work well enough. Just can't go exploring on the open road because it'd be as limiting as an electric bike.

I had seen a video on YouTube were a guy made a car with the same concept, went pretty darn far also!!  He later hooked up a lawnmower engine to run a compressor that was able to give him 100mpg at 65mph!!  Cool.
