Ahem. The Viper is strictly a posing machine. It's practical value as
a motorcycle approaches nil. As such, it's posing value has merit only
for the "bigger is better" crowd. OTOH, the Cub is a classic. It
ushered in a whole new era of biking. To be seen on a Cub shows that
you are aware of its historical significance and that you are above
the "size matters" hoopla. Much cooler.
(Of course, you already knew that. FWIW, my first bike was a Honda 50.
I would buy another, but at 6'5" and 225lbs, it ain't happening.)

And that you don't care if everyone thinks you're gay.
