I followed one of these in London a few months back.  It was bizarre.  It didn't lean quite so much to change lanes, the video might be exagerated to show the handling of the thing.

Would be interesting to see how "torque steer" affects the cornering.

Seems to lean a long way over for a vehicle with some form of differential between the rear wheels (assuming shaft drive of course...)

Anybody got prices and specs??
