Looks like it could really help soldiers out, seeing as it is so versatile. Looks pretty tough too. Needs MOAR guns though.
I wonder how much something like that would be for civilians? If its in the range of the price of a quad you can count me in.
Lots more info and videos at the BPG Werks website – HERE

Segway for soldiers.
hehe yea, at least this is more badass than the segway!
I want one!!
Sabekuji,
You stole my joke :D I was going to say that is what Segway should have been!
how loud is it? cops, sure, but I don’t want to use something that sounds like a 50cc racing engine.
Good point.
LMAO, I’m always amazed at the toys that defense contractors can come up with, what politicians can spen tax payer money on and what military an LE departments can justify. That’s something I would want to get ten miles out on and break down! Stick to a decent motorcycle, like a 650 dual sport bike! Guess it hekps recruitment to have toys for the kids.
I agree with the fact that the motorcycles are proven, but I still like seeing innovation in any field. If nothing else, it might drive some improvement to be made in the design of the current style equipment.
Regular soldiers will never get anything like this, ever. I’ve seen the distinct possibility of having fun with that cool little toy, and in the military fun is VERBOTTEN!!!! NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN!!!
Generals might get one, but they’re considered demigods, so don’t count. Seriously, they are. It’s in the regs somewhere.
hahha demigods
just get one of these instead

That looks pretty cool, but not as comfortable. Also the handle part with the controls on it looks like it could break easy if you bailed. Any idea how much they are? (I can’t see it on the site)
But for snow only — wouldn’t do us much good here in Phoenix.
I could see this being used heavily for CasEvac in built up areas, or triage managment. The remote control capability seems well suited for some EOD missions as well.
I want one! :D
Still, the exhaust pipe looks kinda fragile-located. I hope it holds.
Do they offer any disabled veterans financing for veterans on a tighter budget. Disabled veterans could use these to get out of seclusion and enjoy some sane therapy. If not, I’ll figure out how to get a used one somewhere. Thanks for your time.🙏🇺🇸
