I think the HUD issue is very complicated and will take someone like BMW to figure it out. If you drive a late model car the number of distractions is crazy and I am sure there are accidents being caused by the car distracting people. Fighter pilots have to train to be able to use all of the information the instruments are telling them. They learn what to focus on and when. I have a feeling that the HUD thing is going to really be in the way on the bike, assuming you are riding for pleasure. I sort of think maybe a digital speed, gear and maybe a RPMs overlay would be it. Beyond that it could get overwhelming, especially at night. But you never know. I am also glad I waited, was close to pulling the trigger too.
