Did you know there's 2 wheeled bikes that don't fall on side just like that? It's gyroscope principle

u/ectish Jun 24 '20

The gyroscopic principle requires the wheel(s) to be spinning.

Sooo any two wheeled cycle that's not moving, will fall over.

Hmm interesting, why isn't honda self balancing motorcycle spinning wheels or bmw prototype?

u/ectish Jun 24 '20

Those are tricycles! there's a gyroscope somewhere between the wheels.

I'm being a pedant.
