We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I have visions of the Lone Ranger saying "Silver, go for help" and the bike taking off on its own.

I had a self driving Triumph back in my college years. After a night of drinking 3.2 beer in Lawrence, Kansas I would wake up in my frat house front yard laying next to my Bonneville. I would have no idea how it got me home.

They cut the video before the kickstand dropped otherwise that bike picked up a few scratches.
Does it come with a seat belt? I'd call mine Jeeves.

I'm not going to comment since it's apparently okay to go all the way back to high school to find dirt on you. In my case it would even be TRUE?

Me too, when a friend of mine got out of boot camp we swore we would stay awake and drink until it was all gone. Everone else had either passed out or left and we kept going. His mom came down the next mornbing and ask if we were at it again and we told we hadn't stopped yet. It6 had snowed that night and when it was all gone I went out to start the bike and spent quite some time trying to start it when my friend brought me my keys!  Once I u8sed those it started first kick as always (66 TR6C) I rode home where another friend across the steet was waiting for his ride to work. He told me I rode in like I was stone cold sober parked the bike and when I swung my leg over I fell halfway across the parking lot. I ended up drinking all day with him!
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
