Seems to me BMW have totally lost the plot. How grotesque.

Looks like a cartoon bike. Kind of like most new cars.

Do you reckon in 60 years time there will be a forum for those old bikes?

I think the point is it's technically driverless and all you do is sit on it while it goes where you've programmed it  *sad2*. No throttle, no brakes, no steering, no fun, no point 
Welcome to the future...  *eek*

Misery guts! *razz*

I don't think that scenario is going to be a problem for most of us here!
