oh yeah, one more. two weeks ago I'm riding with a co-worker that has a 2009 cbr600rr. After riding some twisties I offer to trade and let him ride mine. After a few miles we pull over and he says..."man, that sucks." I reply "what sucks?" He says, looking very sad i might add, " I didn't want to trade back." One of the best comments I've heard yet.
That's a little game I like to call "Just the tip, Just for a little bit."

I've only had the duc three days, but the "Ducati moments" just keep comin'. On a short ride today, a cop car pulls up next to me as we roll downtown. I glance over and catch the cop in the passenger seat eyeing my ride. He looks at me and gives me the thumbs up! Yesterday I went to show off to a friend who's had a nice sv650 for three years now. I let him take it out and around a couple blocks. He said he liked it, but didn't act overly impressed. Later I hear from another friend that he had said that the monster felt like ten times the bike the sv is!! That's what I thought, but awesome to hear it from someone who owns an sv!

So, my bud goes out and buys a red Hyper S, full termi, speedymoto, DP, the whole shebang. Only thing is, he doesn't ask the wife-to-be first. Brings it home and thinks he can "hide" it in the garage for a bit. Needless to say, when she finds it she freaks out and nearly leaves him for not talking about it first. Fast forward a few weeks, they're over at my house, we walk down to the garage since she's never seen my bikes. First thing out of her mouth, speaking to her boyfriend, "WOW, his bike is much nicer than yours..."
I nearly fell on the floor laughing. Sad thing is, mine's just a '99 monster with a few changes, and custom paint.

I've ridden with my boss a couple of times. He's got three bikes, all worth a lot more than mine. The funny thing though is how I always get complements on my bike in front of him, but people just ignore his bike. It drives him crazy, especially when he is on his $18K R1 Limited Edition. Nobody realizes there is anything different about that bike but my used $8,000 S2R 1000 catches their attention.

People are frequently speechless upon seeing my bike, too.

HUsband rides a Daytona 675. Last week he rode my bike to work for a change ( I generally bicycle to work, so the monster sits around all week being sad).
Coworker in parking lot: Hey, you got a new bike!
Husband: Nah, this is my wife's bike.
Coworker: Wow, her bike is so much more awesome and badass than yours!
Husband: ...yeah. sigh.

I often get this look from men in minivans. Oh how their dreadful life has beaten them down (and it shows so easily on their face).

I was riding yesterday and stopped by a local Suzuki dealership to get a few things. I was inside and looked out only to see another rider taking pictures of the Foggy with his point and shoot camera. All angles, high, low, tight, loose.
When I came out he said, 'I hope you don't mind that I took a few pictures of your beautiful bike'. I said, 'A FEW pictures?'.
He was a very nice guy, so I wasn't worried about him taking photos. He also said he wanted to trade all of his bikes in for an M900.
Oh, and this is my 100th post. So, I am a full member.
YEAH BABH! No more newbie poster feelings of inadequacy ! ! !

Hey, I drive a minivan!!!!
. But I get paid for it, plus I have a monster
. That's probably as good as the look I get from people staring at a 20 something guy in a 07 Caravan listening to 3 inches of Blood in the middle of rural Missouri.

In some cases the best response is no response at all. I was sitting in my buddies living room with my monster parked in the parking spot right by the front door. I walked by and noticed a guy standing on the sidewalk looking over the bike....from the left, right, front, and back. A minute or two went by and he started walking again only to stop and look back.
I thought that was pretty cool.
But, maybe he was thinking about stealing it?
