A California man has sued BMW North America and a motorcycle-seat maker claiming that riding his BMW bike gave him an erection that lasted 20 months, destroying his ability to engage in sexual activity.
USA Today is reporting that the product liability lawsuit against BMW and well-known aftermarket seatmaker Corbin-Pacific (reported first by Courthouse News Service in California) was filed in California Superior Court in San Francisco last Thursday by Henry Wolf and his lawyer, Vernon Bradley of Sausalito.
The complaint states that on May 1, 2010, Wolf was riding his 1993 BMW motorcycle equipped with a Corbin-Pacfic seat for about four hours when he noticed he had "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," the lawsuit states.
Wolf seeks damages for lost wages, personal injury, medical expenses, product liability, and negligent infliction of emotional distress, according to SF weekly.
"Plaintiff ... has been experiencing continuing problems since his motorcycle ride. He is now unable to engage in sexual activity, which is causing him substantial emotional and mental anguish," his lawyer states.
According to court papers, the plaintiff "now suffers from priapism (a long lasting erection), and has been experiencing continuing problems since his motorcycle ride. He is now unable to engage in sexual activity, which is causing him substantial emotional and mental anguish."

    Peeing with an erection can be done...it's just more difficult to aim.

    He probably ruined more than one pair of *kitten*-less chaps due to a side effect of the erection & let's face it...those chaps can be pretty pricey...

    Maybe like this, but I am with you on the erection being bad for sex. In my experience they are good for sex.

    That's a pretty novel approach to it. While I have not tried that, as demonstrated, I'm pretty sure I'd want to don some safety glasses before approaching the urinal that way.

    That's hilarious! Just what I needed this morning. I'll be laughing about that all day.

    I thought you were supposed to tell the doctor if it lasted more than 4 hours. He waited 20 months??

    Dear users,
    I wanted to offer you a brief explanation for why I am locking this thread, the initial post, and some of the post following after, break the following rule:

    17. No Profane, Vulgar, or Sexually Explicit Language

    No explicit, sexual, insulting or vulgar content including expletives, or sexual innuendo, will be permitted. This includes the use of non-alphabetical characters to approximate expletives or other objectionable language. Publicly visible text on MyFitnessPal should be work-place friendly.

    We reserve the right to moderate a topic based on the intent of the sexual material it contains. Topics intended to titillate will be removed. Topics with medical or clinical themes related to sex or sexual health may be permitted, at our discretion.

    While this thread may not be as inappropriate as some others that have broken this rule, is suggest posting this sort of subject matter in one of the MFP groups, as opposed to the general chat.

    Thank you for your cooperation, and enjoy your stay on MyFitnessPal
