Honda invented a bike that can balance itself. This bike is named Honda Riding Assist. Honda Riding Assist was first demonstrated at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Honda says the technology was developed as an offshoot of the Uni-Cub, the automaker's nifty self-balancing mobility unicycle concept.
When engaged, the system increases the fork angle, lengthening the bike's wheelbase and, apparently, disconnecting the front forks from the handlebars. The system then uses minute steering inputs to keep the bike perfectly balanced, without the use of heavy gyroscopes or other mass-shifting devices.
