You know for a fact the bike is never ridden? If so, yeah...that's pretty stupid. And since when did a roof rack enhance a cars appearance? Not asking you specifically, just in general. I suppose it's no kookier than a giant ricer wing, "carbon fiber" wrap, stretched tires or any of the other nonsense that people do to thier cars in the name of "looks"...

Really? How stupid. They do know roof racks decrease your MPG, right?

Ran in a couple guys that do it because it "looks" good. So they give off this vibe that they do both outdoor activities and car activities.

You should also hear some of the most stupid shit some of the kids here say. You'd believe they've never ridden the bike too.

"Oh yea my civic is puttin' out fo-hunned horse powers. I beat that GTR startin' 40 on the 55. Bitch had nuthin' on me"

Yup. Lol

Doesn't matter to them. Asthetics > Functionality (this is not a little thing against herrafrush guys. Even though I don't like that type of car style)

I also think the drivers think they'll get the "honeys" with their not-very-functional car.

I don't even know what to say...

Hopefully this trend dies a quick death...

Well, I can't knock them for trying different ways for picking up chicks. Maybe i'll start carrying a bike helmet with me, would you find that sexy?

Must be a racing helmet. I might find it "sexy" but I won't be attracted. :P

I would be more than happy to knock them for carting around a bike on top of their car that they don't actually ride. If they need that to pick up chicks, they're pathetic...
