both from today I pull up to the motorcycle parking at school. I see an old classmate sitting with his friend looking at the bikes. I get off, take my stuff off and say whats up. When I took off the helmet he got this surprised look. "Damn that is your Ducati? I always wondered who rode that. That is the best bike at the school man" I just laughed and said thanks.  Talking to a cashier at work while my bike warms up she asked if I could shut it off cause it was too loud.  |

Riding across town the other day, two little girls with their dad or brother (couldn't tell) were walking down the sidewalk... As i passed them they both gave me the "V" wave !!! It made me smile like nothing else  Some things are better unsaid! |

My massage therapist: "I heard you coming" Then she did kind of an imitation of the sound.
When she heard me coming, she was in the very back of the building behind two closed doors with music on.

Not so much something said but, the other day I pull up to a stop light. There is a mom and her son in the left turn lane next to me. After the kid notices my bike, he rolls down the window all the way to hear my bike better. I rev the engine for him and a big smile goes across his face. The light turns green and I'm off.

Well it wasn't said but. . My brother in law owns a Harley bar so I stop by and it's kinda fun watching the 'Harley Guys' stop and spend a minute or two looking at the Duc sitting in front. |

I've gotten "That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen" a couple of times as I've been stopped at lights(which was really good for the ego, by the way!) and when I was at the Peter Murphy concert a couple of months ago a couple of dudes watched me put my gear on and told me "That's a beautiful bike". Even though my poor Monster is a real beater! (duct taped turn signals and all LOL) They probably couldn't tell how beat up it was because it was dark out  Fun thread! I've enjoyed all the responses.

While waiting to load onto a ferry, another rider on a Yamaha touring bike comes over to check my S2R out. Rider: "Those Italians sure can make some beautiful bikes" Me: "Definitely" Rider: "That thing is like sex on two wheels" Me: "Uh, yeah..." Rider: "Mmmm..." At this point I get a little uncomfortable with his leering at the bike, but the ferry arrived and saved me. |

I am having a driveway party and a guy notices my S2R 1k in the garage. He says, "damn..., nice motorcycle" and asks if it will go about 200 mph. There are also the occasional requests from female coworkers for a ride;D

Not to me, but a stranger to his young son...
Guy (late 30s?) holding his son and checking out my bike: "You're my little motorcycle."
I thought that was cute.
