THE MOTOR MoNoCYCLE.

causes the wheel TO be stecred and
balanced. The upright position OF the
motor and rider Is maintained by
means of eight small wheels which
travel upon tracks fixed upon the inner
side of the main rim. While these
wheels render the position of the
motor frame and seat independent OF
the rotary motion of the rim. the seat
also retains a vertical position indie
pendent of the frame. TO produce this
effect the seat Is suspended between
two standards, which In turn slide lat
orally across the motor casing.
When travelling ut leisure along
country roads the rider extends the
auxiliary wheels toward the rear Gu
on each side of the main wheel. thus
converting the machine into tricycle.,
but when 1t Is desired tn attain high
speed or to cross uneven country he
draws them within the large wheel
and rides upon single tire. The aux
Hilary wheels can also be extended 30

which position they are mainly intend
ed to serve as stays to hold the vehicle
IN an upright position when ut rest.
