Optical Delusion !

I never thought my S40 was a small bike until last week. Drinking a coffee at McD's and looking at my bike in the parking lot, it looked really small. Walking out afterwards, and standing beside it, it is small! Maybe I should quit parking between monster P-ups!
Feels perfectly normal during a ride and in the garage!
Cheers!  Cheesy

They ask me al the time if its a moped.

I'm not kidding. I drove a Moped for a while (slightly tuned). That was much more practical in the city because I could drive between everything and also the one-way streets in both directions.

But now they know me that way. And I'm quite tall. So people quickly see a moped in it.
I really have to say no,,,, it's a motorcycle, and then they often don't believe me.

It's not really macho to drive a savage in a country where people are much taller than the world average.

I usually say that I just took the training wheels off.

Do what you know is right. (you can always use fear as a counselor later)

No need to feel deficient, just remember that they have no idea how big that thing is between your legs when on your bike.

Yeah, they Are small. I actually looked like a regular sized guy when I was riding one.
Well, I looked like a regular sized guy on a motorcycle further away from the viewer than I was.

I put taller shocks on my S-40 to make it look taller and found it didn’t drag the foot pegs as often 😁

Really the 350 Meteor is bigger than the S-40 but it’s only almost as much fun to hot rod !
