lol its dumb though to tuck in at low speeds cold or not. if its cold they shouldnt be out riding a bike in shorts and a shirt. which makes them look border line retarded. i mean you cant go out in a tank top in 50 degree weather and then complain its cold. just like if they were actualy wearing the gear they were suposed to he wouldnt need to tuck in at low speeds cause its cold. its kinda a duuurr situation

wait that reminds me. i seen something weird the other day on my way home. there was this guy on a yellow vfr800. and he was riding next to me in the other lane (i was in my car) and i looked over at him and my jaw kinda dropped cause what he was doing was so weird. he was putting along (well like 80mph actual speed) and he had both of his feet hooked behind him on the passenger pegs. it looked so damn weird. and uncomforatable as hell on top of that. i mean i can understand riding with one hand on your hip to rest your hand/arm, or sit your calves on the framesliders so you can stretch your legs out. but the way his legs were bent looked more uncomforatable than if the rearsets on your guys 05 636s were like moved 3 inches up. just an odd site to see

Actually, a lot of us used to ride long distances with feet on rear pegs. It is actually quite comfortable - lets you stretch out and lay a bit more forward on your tank, resting the chin of your helmet on the back of your left hand.

Sounds like your posing for a picture with your hand under your chin

Holy Cow, I might just be a dork! I ride like that on longer rides (sometimes) because it's actually comfortable when my legs get cramped up. It gives me a diff. position, PLEASE DON'T LET ME BE A DORK>>>>>>>>>>AAAAAA AARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH![8D]
