Suzuki SD-01 and Suzuki SD-02

I just saw this on YouTube and I was surprised, why wasn't it included in the 28th Annual Cycle World International Motorcycle Show in their Scooter Pavilion. This would've made the show more interesting for me as a scooter rider.

These two were shown at the 29th annual Bangkok International Show, which featured and environmentally friendly theme, http://tinyurl.com/yjlhpne. I think they are pretty cool for what they are, they are probably not touring scooters, at least not yet.

According to the actual video, its the sd-01 & sd-02, not sd-10 &sd-02.
There are 10 kinds of people in the world.
Those who understand binary and those that don't.

The seat looks to be a hard plastic, no more comfortable than the racing bicycle seats that end up trying to be a thong for your butt.
Handles are plastic to be see-thru. No comfort there either.

Some of the lighting patterns are illegal (No flashing lights in the USA)

The idrive system is cool, but ultimately unless suzuki extends it to a large enough market, perhaps by putting it in their cars, it will be cost prohibitive to maintain updates for this proprietary system, both in GPS maps and bluetooth compatibility.

But they are definitely cool concepts!

I'm actually more curious about how just4cruzn was able to embed a youtube video into the forum. Might be an interesting thing to add to the faq or the help section.

I just could not understand a thing the guy said in the video.
