This episode discusses the current trends in the auto industry and their potential impact on the motorcycle industry, including the declining popularity of sports cars, two-door cars, convertibles, and manual transmissions. The shift towards SUVs and government mandates for fuel economy and reduced emissions are also highlighted as factors affecting the automotive industry, leading to engine types and vehicle complexity changes.  Will these start to change the motorcycles of the future, too?  Can the camera industry provide a guide to how motorcycling may evolve?
