Can Motorcycles Run On Air?
All bikers know that with the rising cost of gas, riding your motorcycle can become an expensive habit. Researchers in Lucknow, India have developed an engine that runs on pressurized air and would all but eliminate the use of gas in motorcycle engines. Before you get too excited and run off to swap your engines out, there are a few problems to overcome. Right now, this engine would only allow bikers to ride the open road for around 30 minutes at 50 mph, not too exciting. However, there is research happening on a new tank that would allow you to travel for up to 6 hours. Researchers are saying that in about a year from now this product could be on the open market. Keep a look-out for motorcycles coming out with compressed air engines soon!
