that's honda for ya. a ****load of answers to questions nobody ever asked.
If I wanted a nanny I would hire one. I would have a hard time buying an EBR if features like this started coming on the bike.
Imagine you don't need to use side stand anymore. Motorcycle can also follow you out the garage or it can get a tight parking spot. It also will help you balance at low speed or when you are staying at traffic without putting your feet on the ground.
Minimal speed I can keep my feet on the footpegs on my 2009 BuellXB12Scg is 1-2 mph. My Buell has 240 rear wheel, it helps a lot to keep my feet on footpegs at slow traffic, but when traffic stops I have to put my feet on the ground anyway. I hate to ride at constantly stopping slow traffic, this feature will be priceless for future Buell motorcycles.
When I ride my bicycle I can stay at one place and balance using front wheel without putting my feet on the ground, I trained this skill a lot, but I would not do the same on my Buell without this assist system.

If you can't ride on your own then you shouldn't be on a bike to begin with . End of story
I don't like Honda design, Buell has the best design, the most pleasing aesthetics, but not all Buell models, just a few of them. The most important thing for me is how motorcycle looks. And there are some features I would like to see on Buell motorcycles.

There are no future Buell models.
That brand died in 2009.

Lunatic, this is the only time I'll ever correct one of your responses to a post.
What you meant to say was, "answers to questions ANY REAL MOTORCYCLIST never asked."

Dropping your bike (especially a Buell) sucks for sure. I should know I'm pretty experienced at it. I dropped the Ulysses in the service entrance of the dealer when dropping it off for a tire change, dropped it at the bike rally last year when my wife (who had a few too many drinks) jump on a little less graceful than usual. Shoot the second day I owned the uly I slipped on some mud and dropped it in my yard. (Those aren't the only times either) Now fortunately the Ulysses wide bars and the cases on mine protect the rest of the bike really well. Still wouldn't take the assist, just seems wrong! And y couldn't that guy pick up a lightning? I'm barely 5'7"and 175 I can pick up buella no problem,guess it must be all the practice!

Yeah, rider assist, I think I'd rather drop the bike or crash and yes, I've done both and still hate when it happens !
I know I can't pick up the Explorer by myself, I'm happy to say I don't yet know if I can pick up the ully by myself.
Old, 155lbs, I used to be 5'9".
Only time I could see the value on this would be for our veterans and handicapped that want to ride but just need this type of technology to get it done.
Other than above, I could see it's uses when I want to answer my phone or want to text !
