I want one! Ideal for zipping around this rural area and down to the village shops. Bit out of my price range though. Only 4 fans is a problem if one fails. At least with a minimum of 6 equally spaced fans software could keep it stabilised if one fails.

Hoverboard crashes into river during Detroit Auto Show demonstration
Not a bike but it does have your request for more rotors.

Looking at this video at 1:21 there are two main thrust fans and four outrigger smaller fans - this wasn't readily apparent in the first video.
That one that ditched in the river isn't for me - standing on top of a myriad of revolving propellers doesn't appeal!

Looks interesting (in-ground-effect) - shades of Caspian Sea Monster.
