It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

All good additions!
Current layout of motorcycles is not an accident or a whim. It's a result of decades of tried and tested variations until engineers found a good and robust solution. Honda is especially one to note there with their kaizen manufacturing method where each iteration is improved if possible by any worker. Also, believe it or not, there was an ICE motorcycle with engine mounted on front wheel. You couldn't break with it, because it didn't have clutch and gear. So you just choke it out.
