So first off let me explain that I know NOTHING of bikes. Cant find anything Im looking for anywere. Thought you guys could help.
The only thing left for me is this:
Has a bike (500cc's or more, ie. R6 - R1 - GSX - SV's) been made in a AUTOMATIC? If SO, what is your opinion on them???
***Your information may be quoted or used in a research paper. THANK YOU.
All comments and information is GREATLY appreciated.

maybe someone has done some modifications to one and made it an automatic but the manufactors don't make em ....... not that i know of. the only twist and go type of thing you can get are scooters.
on a personnal note if they did make one i would like to try it out cos i bet it would be easier on my wrists than a clutch.

honda used to make an automatic transmission bike the cb400 auto and also there was a 750 version i think. some of the larger capacity scooters that are around today may also be automatics.
never seen and auto bike never mind ridden one, so have no opinions on them.
