You also get to become one with the road in case of an accident.
Modern sports bikes are marching towards the same future - self balancing bikes, fancy dashboards, electric bikes with no motor etc.
How can the bike not have a motor? Or like no motor in the engine sense.
Just like electric cars don’t have a motor, another word for motor is transmission in the common parlance.
Electric cars do have motor; "motor" is literally "engine", the thing that converts energy to motion.
If your parlance uses it for the transmission, your parlance is wrong. It is like calling square a circle.
This is exactly what I did recently. No more "you need to take this to the dealer to fix for thousands with their machine™", and I can replace every single component on the thing my damn self. The less parts, the less that can fail.
