Yeah it does I was getting some funny looks not sure if it was the bike or me ha ha I'm 6ft 3 my girlfriend said I looked a dickhead but what does she know

I remember the first ride out I went on. It felt strange but soon got in to it. The amount of attention you get is fantastic especially the Blackpool ride outs

Even the coastguard man loved them. He had a Stika back in the day.
