Another interesting crowd-funding project on Fundable.com is the Robertsham CiTi  . The CiTi comes from Robertsham , and looks like it is the result of the consummation between a Honda Goldwing and a Fiat 500. The resulting child is a three wheeler, as wide and long as a Goldwing, with the protection of a Fiat.
The Robertsham CiTi is a single seat motorcycle with a cage, i.e., a roof, windscreen and seat belt. So you don't need a helmet, or leathers, you can use your normal business clothes, step into the CiTi, put on the seat belt, and drive away. It's a bit like the ill-fated BMW C1, but with more protection.
Since it's a wide as a big motorcycle (Goldwing), you can split lanes when required. The CiTi is a commuter car motorcycle vehicle, and it's going to come in two engine version; a 1000cc, 100 HP V-Twin engine giving you 50 mpg (and 0-60 in 4 seconds), and the eCiTi with an electric 80 kW engine giving you 100 miles per charge (there's going to be a 25 kW range extender option available).
They are aiming for a sales price of around US$22,000 for the V-Twin executive version. For the next month, the company is looking for funding, so you can help. 10 dollars will already get you a coffee mug with logo, while $15,000 will get you one of the first models coming out, so a hefty discount.
