Default Manual vs. automatic

So I understand that now there are automatic shift motorcycles, also. Mine is a manual shift, and I like it that way. What do you have? What do you prefer?

Mine's a manual and I wouldn't have it any other way. To me, it's just not a motorcycle unless you have to shift it yourself. I think having an automatic would take some of the fun of riding away, too.

I also prefer manual shift. On a motorbike with automatic shift, I don't feel like riding a motorbike. But my sister prefer automatic shift motorbikes as they are easier to ride.

I drove an automatic once and it just didn't seem like a bike. Manual shift is part of the fun of riding them. I doubt that I'd ever buy an automatic shift bike.
