I really wish I had pictures from way-back-when of the day I took my buddy for a spin on my old bike to disprove this...

Try to picture this...passenger is 6'7", rider is 6'2" and using passenger's knees as arm rests, wearing 3/4 helmets so we could smoke while riding, cruising down the beach on a 1978 Honda CB400 Hondamatic with the suspension begging for mercy.

where in there do you see the cool factor going up 20%?  Wink
