This looks like someone is thinking outside the box.

I saw that on tv yesterday. Neat idea. The claim that you can't get into an accident sounds like total BS to me. Still I like how it will stand up on it's own without a kickstand.

By the time they get this one perfected and the price to where a normal person can afford it, I am pretty sure my riding days will have come to an end. :(

Here is another web site about this bike https://techcrunch.com/2016/10/12/bmws-motorcycle-concept-is-so-smart-you-wont-need-a-helmet-to-ride-it/

I would not ride it without protective gear, mainly a helmet.

That's true, everyone will be slim and wearing jump suits in the future.

But I wonder if I'd feel a draft on my derriere, if I were to ride that bike... :yikes:

It's like a challenge - it will not fall over! I bet I could drop that bike on me, if I really tried.

:clap: I like the way that you think! :2thumbs:

Give it to me for about fifteen seconds: I'd have the bar-ends scuffed in no time! :thumbup:

No fear of many of us ever riding it. It is not supposed to be ready for 30 years! :roflblack:

i found it interesting when they said you don't need a helmet, how does the bike avoid birds and insects?
