From The Drive:
Quote:BMW has unveiled a motorcycle designed to represent the company’s view of the future of riding.

The Motorrad Vision Next 100 concept, as BMW calls it, is a pie-in-the sky piece of futuristic design.

Instead of a traditional suspension or steering apparatus, the bike itself bends as needed, always staying upright. The tires also morph as needed, changing their tread on the fly for the best grip.

BMW says that between the self-balancing features and the futuristic aerodynamics, riders could safely use the Motorrad Next 100 without protective outwear – or even a helmet.

Don’t expect to see this bike in your BMW showrooms anytime soon. Like the Next 100 vehicles created for Rolls-Royce, Mini, and BMW’s car division, this Motorrad is strictly vaporware designed to stir up imaginations and provide a preview into the potential future.

Also, a video release....

Edit:  Bizarrely, the link no longer goes to the video as originally selected.  I've put in a new link; let's see how long this one lasts.
