Ok, I definitely need to dig back into the owners manual. We have 3 TC modes on the Concours? I thought it was just on or off.

Your Aprilia is a bit over the top in electronics for me.

I hope I never end up driving in India! When cars start lane splitting it’s time to get off the road!!!

My Magnum has self canceling turn signals. I can deal with those, although, they are a PITA when they turn off on their own before you have made your turn and you have to turn them back on. I would rather just push the button and turn them off myself when I’m ready. I can take them or leave them.

I'm sorry, I meant to type N1K having 3 TC modes.

Looks like he needs to move to self balancing cars.

I wish I had auto turn signals on my c14. My ‘84 Suzuki Madura 1200 had them and hey, that was 34 years ago!

My 78 KZ1000 Z1R TC had them too, and that was 40 years ago!   ::)

Isn't that what he is already doing? Looks like a 2 wheeled car to me!
