Maybe you have thin frame glasses and besides your bike is more of a muscle bike with relaxed ergonomics, not being hunched over a crotch rocket and having your site partially blocket by frames while tryin to squeeze a look under your brows. /when nesessary/

If I ride your bike I'll be doing the same. It's all about function not fashion. that's why I don't get why whould someone wear them while on a sports bike

What about my Honda? Is it bad form to wear them when I ride my Honda?
