Yes indeed. Helps insurance rates
Old guys with Busas drive insurance costs down.
Just saying.
I have no hi-tech accessories but I do have motorcycles. I'm OK with that.
I have a tractor at my farm and I'm OK with that too.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

My wife is a former felony probation officer. She thinks my cell phone is a version of an electronic ankle monitor!
I get in trouble if I leave it at home or if she calls and I don't answer... even on bike rides!

I embrace the combination of phone technology and riding my moto. I like to set the phone on vibrate, put it in my breast pocket, and then ride. When I get a call, I don't answer the phone, I just enjoy the sensation of my vibrating nipple while I lean into the corners. Weird, I know, but the world takes all kinds and I'm just one of them[cheeky]

I'm the other way around? I work for Apple and have all the cool stuff, but I got the bike for a totally different reason. If only I could enjoy the bike. I'm probably another couple weeks out from being able to walk after a broken tib/fib and ankle.
soon!

You don't need to walk to ride!
Good luck with the healing.
Did that same thing decades ago racing MX.

Fixie:
Did you SEEEEEEE the chicken strips on that thang - least they took off the reflectors
I vote for riding - there have always been posers who buy "accessories" to look cool......
The effect on people who ride - None

Desmosedici - it's the new Paso (except the bodywork doesn't fit as well)
