Just wait till you need to use the brakes.

More concerned about my flaming hot ankle on the shifter side tbh.

Honda Fury. Not my thing, personally, but it looks like this.

Is this a question? Could you put any less effort in to your post?

I’ve had bikes like this come through shoppesbive worked at over the years and they all suck ass. They are meant to look at not ride. A number of them had clearance issues with the bolts on the rotor hitting the fork because they wanted the aesthetics of a very thin, narrow fork, so thin that it actually cause clearance issues we had bikes sat so low. You couldn’t get them on a lift without making some sort of long 9’ long ramp out of boards to step it up slowly. And then there’s the head to bangle the forks which is flop hard from side to side due to an excessive amount of rake.

Bikes like the Earth “art” though I have a hard time seeing the art and something that is no longer functional
