The heavy part of the bike like as battery should be in the lower part of the bike body that makes easy while bending the bike in speed and handling. I am also a 3d designer and I can show it in 3d with some modifications. What if the both wheels have the motors. The shaft of the bike should also be outside the bike body, cause it spreads the bike weight around and makes easy handling. now I in hurry and leaving.

The linkage on the front is for the steering. The shock moves up and down, and the linkage allows the handlebars and wheel to stay aligned. The front fork looks similar to that of a Gilera CX125.

And why would you route the brake lines (esp. the rear) so horribly? A couple of questions: what is the linkage on the front end for?

As Ray Kurzweil (The Singularity is Near) keeps saying, technology advances at an exponential, not linear, rate. This sort of bike might be closer than you or I think. Even something with batteries instead of hydrogen fuel cells, with more plug in hybrids coming, the availability of power outlets in parking areas might speed up adoption of more electric powered vehicles of all types. I'm not so sure about hydrogen fuel cells but I think electric power is definitely coming. When you think about it, these things do seem a long way off, but are they?
