Why? The only place they are more exposed is on the sides. I really dont see the harm in it. I dont know if you are thinking about vandals, or just aesthetics.

by the 'passenger bar' u mean the grab rail? no it does not bother me. actually i think it looks better than when i got the bike. i've replaced the whole rear myself and have no regrets. plus, i think the banana seat is more comfortable than a single seat.
