Are Modern Motorcycles Getting TOO Complicated? | Bore and Stoke Ep. 37

Automated clutches, radar cruise control, TFT bloat, and software paywalls—are motorcycles getting genuinely better, or are they just getting over-engineered? In Episode 37 of the Bore and Stoke podcast, Troy, Ryan, and Dennis tackle the creeping complexity of modern motorcycles. With systems like Honda’s E-Clutch, Yamaha’s Y-AMT, and semi-active electronics becoming the new normal, where do we draw the line between useful innovation and tech that dilutes the riding experience? Plus, we dive into the murky future of garage wrenching: in 15 or 20 years, will today's flagship bikes be collectible classics, or unfixable digital bricks? Before diving in, Dennis breaks down the latest industry headlines, patent filings, and market shifts at the Motorcycle.com news desk.
