dumbest question about your bike

[DLSGAP]

We walk into an eatery similar to Hooters but with better food.... all of us wearing or carrying our gear...


Drunk fat chick:  " do you guys have motorcycles?"
us : " no we just don't trust the way people here drive"
DFC: " really? man i know what you mean. but hey wait, there are motorcycles out there " points to motorcycle parking out side of the patio
us: " wow cool maybe one of them is in here"


she left, retreating back to her table which consisted of two other drunk girls, both noticeably more attractive than her and some douchebaggy looking guy....   .. then she returned

DFC: " so my friend and I think those are your motorcycles"
me: " well if your friend wants to flash us maybe she can watch us ride off "




she didnt come back after that

Finally I have a good one to put on here. My sister has a bit of a problem developementally; she functions at the level of an 11 to 14 year-old. (Please don't you all going saying anything about me being rude, this is just the way it is, okay). Imagine a sister who is the same age as me (25), but is really rude and kinda mean, thinks she is better than everybody, and can't really be reasoned with, at all.

She pulls up to my parents house where I am visiting, and my bike is sitting outside with the rotorlock/alarm on the front disk and it is ticking really loud b/c the batteries are dying and I haven't replaced them.
She comes in and says: Your bike is making a stupid noise like it is going to explode 'tick-tick-tick', it is really annoying."

Me: "Oh that's the alarm/rotor lock batteries, they need to be replaced."

Her: "You have an alarm on that piece of junk?"

Me: (Thinking, I just washed that bike, oiled the chain and drove it over here, it looks great) "Umm, That bike is worth Ten Thousand Dollars . . ."

Her: "Uhhh . . ."

Inside I was jumping for joy b/c it was so perfect and I delivered it so blankly, and she just shut up right then and there (she never, NEVER does that).

Guy at my Graduate school: "Did you ride today?"

ME, standing there wearing all my gear and carrying my helmet: "Nope, I just drive my Geo Metro REALLY aggressively!"

I had no idea that I married your sister.

I pull up to the pump at a gas station and while taking off my gloves this drunk female who is walking by with her two drunk guy friends veers over and yells to the guys "Hey, this is one of those Harley bikes."
She asks me "Aren't these made by Harley Davidson."
I'm guessing she means Buell, but don't want to confuse her more than she already is by trying to figure out what she means.
I take off my helmet and say "No, Ducati"
She asks "What is it?"
I say "Ducati Monster"
She asks "Who makes it?
I point to the tank and say "Ducati"
She stands there for a few seconds with this confused look on her face and then says "Nice bike." then walks off to catch up with her friends.

Well, I've had all the dumb questions imaginable: what is that, who makes it, is it a buell, how fast is it, was it expensive, can it pull a wheelie .....

Also had the rude HD crowd who act like im a squid on a crotch rocket.

However I think I had an impact on one HD guy.  I was taking a ride after the sun was down one night and caught up to a bike in front of me which from the sound was obviously a HD.  Well, since it was late at night and there were always deer on this road I just stayed behind him and matched speed.  We rode like this for about 5 miles or so with him occasionally accelerating and me doing the same (I had cored exhaust on the m750).  We finally came to a stop sign and I pulled up beside him at which point he did the casual look over to nod then did a hilarious double take/head jerk when he noticed the bike.  he yelled over to me "man I thought it was another harley behind me with that sound and the headlight"  I laughed at this point to which he replied "that thing is badass" I said thank you and we went separate ways at this point. 

My point is that given the opportunity I think most guys even the stuck up HD guys can probably be OK if they are given the opportunity to see we are not all squids.  Being mindful of how you are riding helps.  If I had blown past him because I thought he was riding too slow he might have never gotten to see that people on other makes/models can be pretty cool too. (although I personally think a HD makes a person less cool)_joking

I was waiting for somone to pull out of a parking space so i could take it.  I was right behind them, they pulled out of the parking space then while trying to put the car in drive somehow he stepped on the gas instead and quickly reversed straight into my bike knocking me over. As im on the ground trying to pick myself up he gets out of his car walks back to me and says "Huh, i thought i ran over something".

One day I'm waiting at a stop light when a guy on a Busa pulls up to me.
He lifts his visor and asks me what mirrors I've got and where to get them.
I tell him that they are Napolean Style Barend mirrors, to just google it.
He says cool because he wants to replace his mirrors.
I look over and say that his mirrors are mounted on his fairing.
He says yeah but he's already broken off two by hitting car mirrors while lanesplitting and wants to find something easier to replace when he does it again.
The light changes and he zips off leaving me there awestruck.

I don't know how stupid it is, but it made me a little disappointed.

One of my Bosses use to race, when he heard I got a Ducati, I think he was more excited then I was.  He had never had the opportunity to ride a Ducati and with out thinking about it, it didn't occur to me that he had 70's and 80's race bikes pictured in his head.  I rode it to work one day, When he gets a break he runs outside to see it.  He comes back in looking like a kid who had his candy stolen. 

"When did they change the design?  are they all like that?"

He had never seen a monster.
