Taking a page from the aviation industry-and, truth be told, video games-Honda has created what it calls the SMARTrainer (Safe Motorcycle Awareness and Recognition Trainer).

i'd bet it's much more fun than electric gloves.
A full fairing can help. I love windshields, will insist on using at least a clip-on. I don't care *how* it looks. "don't care about being 'cool', prefer to be warmer & more comfortable.
My two cents is aimed at the clowns who disregard their rear brakes. Ponder that.
But, If you can’t lean, your not riding on two wheels very long. And if you dont know when its time to put your feet on the ground, your ouch factor will soar. So this simulator will probably give you enough confidence to spend your money on a shiny new bike that will be up for sale again in 2 weeks.
Great marketing tool.

I thought that was called "target fixation". The main reason that you twist your neck and look through a curve. If you stare at the gravel on the edge of the curve, that's where you're gonna end up!
If it’s a Honda, it might need a ride STIMULATOR.
So much outdated data and arrogance all in one magnificently, mercifully short post.
You just set a new mark for inanity in insult.
Just firing a premptive strike at the Harley riders that would inevitably post on this thread.
FYI, as of the 2000 Sportster 883 I had, all of my comments were correct. It shook like a paint mixer and leaked oil like it was British.
