Heated grips and pinlock visor inserts are progress from when I started 49 years ago.

Unfortunately waterproof bike apparel is as hit and miss still,regardless of how much you pay.

Tyres, the Pilot Road 5's are so much better than the HiSports my KR1-s had.
ABS, traction control/anti wheelie all make a 200BHp bike "safe" to ride.
FI, the ZH2 is the best fuelled bike I've ever ridden.
oh and heated grips and gloves

Possibly even gone backwards. Heat-sealed pvc suits didn't leak.

Make your mind up, do you want to be wet or wet?

Hydraulic drive to front and rear wheels might be interesting. Never had a bike with heated anything. On a Guzzi though you can always rest your hands or knees on the cylinder heads.
