Wow nice design work. Do you think the COG on the scooter would be a little high causing it to tip easily?

I feel the COG would be too high with such a short, narrow wheelbase.

bicycle COG means rear sprocket,don't know which on the scooter?third picture is a mixture of 125cc e/g with a 14" wheels 50cc frame,not a precise moldel,all you have to do is to remove scooter's fork,then build onto it your 2 wheel complete

Theyre talking about Center Of Gravity. With the current design, it would be very unstable at low speeds.

some leaning 3-wheelers;treat it as 2-wheelers in driving,unstable is essentials,no need too wide and long,that's why you lean
