It only matters if you are harboring thoughts that it might be true.
A year or so ago, I was on a ride in the country with another rider. We stopped at a bar for lunch. There were a good number of Harley Riders already there. They had the good taste not to comment on our shorts but did make reference to our bike's lack of engines. I told them that I figured Harley's were OK if you weren't man enough to make it go by yourself. Any of you guys even use kick starters? Since I'm writing this, you know that I didn't die that day and, believe it or not, we all got along fine after that.
Uh - there are lots of things that you can get away with when you're 60 that might land you in a hospital or in jail at 25. YMMV.
