The precursors of the Toyota i-Road: the return of the Kurveniger motorcycles

The idea of the Kurveiger Motorrad is mainly connected with a name: Wolfgang Trautwein. The Swabian Tuftler tried to inspire his life, motorcyclists and manufacturers from his duoufront vehicles. Trautzus Motivation for its unusual constructs was the security gain. "Motorcycles are wonderful, but too dangerous. You need more ground liability. But they give them three or four wheels, so they lose their best, namely weighing through the curves, "said Trautwein the meaning of the duofront principle. The two front wheels guided by longitudinal stains are connected by a parallelogram lever mechanism so that the vehicle lays into the curve like a two-wheel. So a duofront is articulated like a motorcycle, but offers more ground liability and driving safety.

  1. I once driven the variant, the Piaggio
    in the program. Has acquired a colleague who no longer trusts the motorcycle license, but gladly "Easy Rider" want to do. My conclusion: not fish, not meat, but rather tofu! A damped motorcyclist (like my partner) will not be happy because that "Curve Feeling" by no means comparable to a motorcycle. This is also missing that "Open-Air experience" a bike. Someone who has always driven only cars but is just as little because utility value and comfort are rather modest and a convertible there is at least as much fun. And this all year round. As a niche product, such a companion will be sure to find lovers, just like the trikes, but rather "Cruiser" as the "Sporting" speak to.
