Yes, if you want a goldwing. You can buy a airshifter for your bike. It acts like an automatic. If you can drive a manual car, riding a bike is just as easy. I taught myself how to ride just before I took the MSF class. You just squeeze the clutch handle, release slowly while giving the bike some gas(not to much) and use your left foot to change the gears. 1 down-first gear, neutral and up to change the rest of the gears. Very easy. NOTE: Don't give it to much gas or you will end up on your A$$. RR

Honda build a CB 750 A Hondamatic and the smaller CB 400 T Hondamatic both with a 2 gear automatic, then there is a Husqvarna 430 Automatic which has a 3 gear automatic.

You can make a bike an auto. there are some airshifter kits that you can install that basically make it automatic. do some research and see which ones suit your needs best. good luck.

aprillia also make a few with an automatic clutch. I rode one and it is lame. Much better to take the five or ten minutes necessary to learn how to squeeze a lever.

More recent models in include the Yamaha FJ1300AE and the Aprilia Mana 850, which is pretty sick.

The MSF Course will teach you how to ride a standard bike. I rarely drove a manual before the class, and (with a few stalls at stop signs)I learned how to ride the bike easily. Automatic bikes are limited and you'll probably get some funny looks at group rides. You'll figure it out, just practice.
