I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

It's been done before. It was for people with disabilities who have trouble holding the bike up at a stop. Not a bad idea in that case...

That makes me snicker every time I read it.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Really... so you can bank that car through the turns just like a motorcycle?
Personally, I'm happy to see technology put to use to help those that are physically less fortunate. At least these people can still get out and enjoy riding.

There is no such thing as a bad motorcycle.

I don't see what's so bad about it. They fold down below a certain speed meaning that someone who is either older or injured can still enjoy a bike.

If anyone watches the TV show "House" about the disabled doctor with horrible bedside manner- resulting always in hilarity.
Last week he bought a bike on the show, a guy crashed it so he got it for a good price. Anyway, crippled people should be able to ride too, not just fake crippled people on TV.
