People always talk of the Japanese being followers and not leaders.
I think that they are maybe too used to large volumes and tend to be more ruthless with product decisions is what it is.
I find this clip interesting. YAMAHA was doing this 22 year ago. It looks like something that BMW may get to in a few years.
What I think the problem is, is that people don't want to pay the money for the Japanese to do this type of stuff.
Also interesting what the technologies in this may help the "Multipurpose Motorcycle" segment. (from 20 - 22 years ago remember)
Lots more interesting than the latest teaser ad campaign.
Yamaha Morpho 400cc - 1989
Yamaha Morpho II - 1991
