Japanese design studio Phiaro showed this bizarre add-on at the Tokyo auto show – a BMW K1200 LT tourer with training wheels!
Apparently the wheels are meant to take the place of a normal side or centre stand.

NOW YOU'VE SEEN IT ALL: Yes, it's a BMW K1200 LT with training wheels.
"Phiaro prides itself on finding workable solutions to questions nobody else would even ask" They are electro-mechanically operated by means of an electric motor and short chains and can be deployed at the touch of a button on the handlebars as the rider coasts to a stop.

ELECTRO-MECHANICAL It's operated by an electric motor and a short chain - quite simple really.
Phiaro prides itself on finding workable solutions to questions nobody else would even ask so like everything else on the Phiaro stand at Tokyo - no matter how far-fetched - this is not a mock-up but a working prototype.
