Meh, I never even heard of a helmet mohawk. One day I'll learn to keep my mouth shut so I don't look like a jackass. One day..

I guess it all depends on the shape of the swingarm, the size of your feet, and how you ride. They sure scraped the swingarm of my 05 R6. I ride with the ball of my feet on the pegs, and my ankle pressed up against the bike, so yeah they're gonna rub.

Not if you're female. I was stuck behind a light last year and a pack of 5th grade boys were all making kissie faces at me. One boy made a phone gesture with his hand and mouthed 'Call me.'

At least they knew you were a chick. When I used to ride in all black, I had a bunch of girls in a van flirting with me and one even flashed me!

But you're a guy!

A better one than that is one time some dude rear ended another car staring at me while I was riding. Oops.

I thought that was pretty cool.
