Man sues BMW for enormous cock-up

REPORTS are emerging in America that a man is suing BMW after a four-hour trip on his bike left him with an erection that still hasn't gone away 20 months later.

While we've seen people involved in legal action when their privates have been shortened in bike crashes this is a first.

It seems that Californian Henry Wolf was left with a permanent hard-on after riding his 1993 BMW, which was fitted with a Corbin seat. The court papers reveal:

"Plaintiff was riding his 1993 BMW motorcycle equipped with a Corbin-Pacific seat. The ride lasted approximately two hours each way to plaintiff's destination, after which plaintiff developed a severe case of priapism (a persistent, lasting erection). Plaintiff alleges that this condition was caused by the ridge-like seat on his motorcycle, negligently designed, manufactured and/or installed by defendants.”
