Solar-powered air compressors recharge it and in addition to being CO2-free, it's quiet! If you like the O2 Pursuit concept design, vote for it: Voting in the Melbourne Design Awards 2010 is open until February 13th, 2011. **Implications** - The 'O2 Pursuit' is a special motorcycle, created in order to provide an environmentally friendly alternative to potential customers, eager to avoid gas guzzlers and eco-unfriendly products.
