Maximum speed of 2 meters per second I think disqualifies this as a motorcycle chain.
I am not sure BMW thought so. Or maybe they have commissioned something custom to make it suitable.

Why is it when something new and innovative comes along, some folks adopt a negative position on it?
I don't mind lubing my chains once in awhile.

Chains do not stretch, they wear.

If that were actually a true statement BMW would in fact be required to provide the fluid free of charge under the Magnusson Moss Act.
The article says they "elongate". I submit that is a synonym for "stretch". Both mean the chain gets longer.
The difference is the mechanism at work.
Stretch refers to getting longer under tension and the material in question undergoes distortion. This is not the mechanism by which chains get longer.
Oh great, now the discussion turns to semantics...
Sounds amazingly goofy to ask if a person is concerned with “chain elongation” on their motorcycle.
