Also had someask where I got the space frame for my sportster.

I said eBay, I lacked the energy for the argument.

If it happens again you should say, "Orange County Choppers"!

Wasn't about my bike, but I was in a local Irish pub eating dinner and having a couple of half-and-halfs at the bar.  Cute blonde is with her b/f and another guy and the two guys are talking about cars.  The blonde sees my Ducati hat and says, "Ducati...wow...they're talking about cars but you know where it's really at.  Is it outside?"
Me:  "No, I don't ride when I'm drinking."
Cute Blonde:  "Too bad, you could take me for a ride."
Me:  "Maybe next time."
Cute Blonde:  "That would be cool--I come here all the time."

When they left, the blonde gave me "the look" while the b/f looked pissed  >:(.  I just smiled quietly in my beer.

Guy fueling up his Yamaha Road Star walks over to me, points to the dry clutch, laughing, says, 'Man! I want to get one of those on my bike!' We had a great talk about his ride across country...

Cute blondes are always trying to leave their boyfriends for Ducati riders.

And this happens to me all the time, too.

That would be a cool commercial if it weren't for the stupid motorcycle-like thing.

I got the exact same thing. I was parking my bike at a car show and a guy (wearing a Ducati hat, no less) runs up to me and says, "Dood, sweet bike. I heard that dry clutch from way over there." I didn't have the heart to tell him it was a wet clutch.

If your wet clutch sounds like a dry clutch, maybe it's time for a new clutch?

LOL. I think he just thought all ducs have dry clutches; dry clutches are loud; therefore, he should be able to hear my clutch from across the parking lot, and he wanted to sound like he knew what he was talking about.

My bike isn't all that loud.

I know its all just a matter of taste, but I'd no sooner be seen riding a "Big Dog" than I'd be seen wearing a skirt.
