The girls tried to send me out the door with an auto only version because that's what most people get, and they didn't even look.
In point of fact, I've never had to whip that bad-boy out, because I always wear a helmet and tend to look and ride relatively sane, but if things go sideways I'm all in favor of having all my ducks in a row.
