A drive system for a motor vehicle includes a separating clutch, a shiftable transmission, a drive machine, and a transmission gear wheel and a clutch device. In a first operating state either the clutch device or the transmission gear wheel is kinematically coupled to the transmission input shaft and in a second operating state both said clutch device and said transmission gear wheel are kinematically coupled in said manner thereto. The drive system comprises a braking device for transmitting a braking force in a non-contact manner in this first operating state from a first part to a second part of the braking device. In that the first part of the braking device is kinematically coupleable to the transmission input shaft and the second part is kinematically coupleable to the transmission gear wheel.

A method for operating a rotating-mass device and a rotating mass device of a two-wheeled vehicle are provided. The rotating-mass device includes first and second gyroscopic instruments, each with a cardanically mounted rotating-mass device suitable for generating torque about their respective rotation axes. Pivoting of the rotating-mass devices is coordinated to influence motion of the two-wheeled vehicle about three orthogonal vehicle axes.
