Understand. I kind of think that anyone stupid enough to pay more attention to their cell phone than to their driving is unlikely to notice something flapping around on somebody's bike. Hell, I'd be surprised if they notice the bike at all. I always thought it was more about style than substance, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I certainly know nothing about style, I've owned a couple of what many consider the ugliest bikes ever made. The R1200GS, and the other one I won't mention here as it will surely hurt the feelings of some. Wouldn't want to be accused of triggering.
