A group of Indian engineering students have come up with a motorcycle that runs on nothing but compressed air. I couldn’t find any info on the kind of range this thing will give you per tank, but it does have a top speed around 11MPH (18KMH).

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of an air powered vehicle, but it’s typically an air powered car that I’m talking about.

One man had a dream… to get stranded in the middle of nowhere because his homemade motorcycle doesn’t use gas. Okay, I’m just kidding. but the reality is that this motorcycle only has a 15 mile range. For most people, that isn’t enough to get them to work. The good thing is that recharging this cycle is so inexpensive that it’s like getting 300 miles per gallon. Unfortunately, this vehicle only goes 40 MPH. Well, if you’re going to make your own vehicle, I guess you have to accept your own engineering limitations.
