At last! Motorcycles will be able to enjoy the freedom of the open road without those annoying humans on their backs.
And, when a car turns left in front of it. no riders will be killed.

Since my dealer is several hours away, it would be nice to send the bike down for warranty work and have it come back in time for the afternoon commute...

Just like a horse?
Hey now I can go bar hopping without worries. A self driving car and a self driving bike. Sort of like the horse that knew where home was and would take the drunk home while he slept in the saddle/seat. LOL..

No no no.. If your passed out drunk on a horse and the horse is sober, you can still be hit with a dui..

Wake me up when BMW pioneers technology that senses deer and other large animals in proximity down the road and alerts you w/ an audible alert and nice bright icons on your Nav X display for each critter. That would provide some massive value, whereas autonomous not so much

Now that's even better zap them or at least tase them to freeze them in their tracks!
That is not saying a whole lot ! Does this mean that I can look forward to seeing hordes of Beemer Bozos texting on their two wheelers just like with their four wheelers ? God help me.
