Abstract
An enclosed motorcycle ( ) that utilizes a structural frame ( ), a pair of tandem wheels ( ), an engine ( ) and a handlebar assembly ( ) provides transportation for a single driver. A foot brake pedal assembly ( ) is pivotally affixed to the frame for stopping the motorcycle and a bench seat ( ) is rigidly attached to the frame for seating the driver. A pair of outrigger landing wheels ( ) are attached to the motorcycle frame on a common axle and have automatic control to extend the wheels at a predetermined road speed, for preventing tipping at low speeds and when stopped. An enclosure ( ) is disposed over and attached to the frame which includes a pair of entrance doors ( ) and a pair of leg doors ( ), one on each side of the motorcycle for access to the seat for minimizing the enclosure envelope and providing effortless entry into the motorcycle. A two piece external passenger seat ( ) is provided over the engine with a fold down cargo compartment underneath. When the seats are hinged upward the cargo compartment mechanically unfolds providing storage space.
