Harley Guy; "Nothing as good as a Harley"

Me; "Why do you ride the Honda Goldwing whenever it rains?"

Harley Guy; "Well, That there Honda is my Mud Bike"

Me; "Why don't you ever ride your Harleys in the rain?"

Harley Guy; "They don't like rain, I don't like to clean em either"

Me; "But you don't clean the Honda?"

Harley Guy; "Hell no, that thing never needs cleaning"

Me; "It is lots older than your HD's, did you buy it new?"

Harley Guy; "Yep I did, That Piece of S*IT has been a pretty good bike for a mud bike"

Me; "Ever broke?"

Harley Guy; "Nope"

The conversation went on for quite awhile just like this, I still scratch my head at the hypocrisy and denial of so many factors. But what ever.

Dude, I tried to take your bike for a spin but every time I put it in gear it would die. Is there something wrong with it?

The kick stand was down.....Dumbass. (It was my brother)

Not to mention the Jehova's Witnesses in Seattle that told me it was nice, untill they got to the front of it....

Them - "No, I've never been on a motorcycle before."
So true... I've stopped dropping the year of the bike. It just gets me weird looks when they ask and I respond: It's a 1984 Honda Interceptor.

Them: Blank stare.

Me: ....It's an original sportbike.

Them: OOOoooh.

I've had people ask how fast it is.
I just answer: Fast enough; and grin.

I Ride: "Scooter"
Just yesterday I was on my way out the door from work, stopped at the front desk to chat with the receptionist. A vendor came in, did his chit chat, then looks at me in my gear:
Him: "what do you ride"
Me: "that blue bike a few stalls down" [I point-I don't expect him to know the model but it is the only bike in the parking lot]
Him: "what is that, a CBR?"
Me: [in my head: "wtf"] It's not a CBR.
Him: Oh, must be a Yamaha then
[I would think the "YAMAHA" on the lower faring and behind the passenger seat would be a clue]
Him: "Oh right on, I just picked up a 125 off craig's list for a screaming deal"

I've also argued with someone at a red light about if I have a headlight out or not.
Him: You have a headlight out
Me: No I dont
Him: Yes, you do.
Me: No, I don't, but thank you for your concern.
Him: well, you just don't know you have a headlight out, you should really get that fixed.
Me: Do you own a bike?
Him: no
Me: Do you know anything about bikes?
Him: no
Me with some serious stink eye: then stfu and don't argue with someone about something that you know nothing about.
ºcouple seconds later...light turns greenº

There's also this guy at my work that mistook the R6s for an R1. Must had been the look of the headlights; even though completely different headlights. His eyes got big though when I was like, no, but there's one of those in the garage, but I have no interest in it. Evidently he has a CBR...talked my ear off about it, about him and his buddies blasting though some canyon in Eastern Wa at over a 100 running from the cops and shit.....-Yesterday...he was waiting for the bus.

R1 and R6s were parked side by side at Alki few months back: Some tard with his buddy walks by as I'm getting off the 6:
Him: I could have bought a ducati for both of those bikes combined
me: You said it: two for the price of one. He has his, I have mine...much nicer that way.
he keeps walking

Opps, misread that. people say dumb things about my bike all the time

Do you ever wash it?
Do you know your bike is dirty?
Um dont you like your bike? You never wash it.
You cant ride that thing off road....
Whats a Bu-well ? or any other mispronounciation of the Brand
So its a Harley right?
Why is it so loud?
You know your snuffler is broke ? kid was 5.
Did you ride today (when my bike is parked out front with the grime to prove it)
the tank is see through so you can tell how much gas is in it, thats pretty cool.
You have a headlight out.

But my altime favorite, after being covered head to toe in mud and just getting off the bike at Dual Sport NW.... Were you on the poker run?....

"My FLSHITWTFPOS (or whatever the hell it was) has enough torque to take your bike light to light" I was sitting on my anemic little ZX-11 Ninja. I invited him to bring his title and his FLSHITWTFPOS (or whatever the hell it was)whenever he paid it off and he could go to litre bike school.

I was on My ZZR1200 picking up a 6 pack at the end of a day of riding, when this guy with a c50 boulevard and 2" chicken strips was telling me that with his experience rockin' his camaro and the fact that he was dragging his size 15 dogs in the corners that he was sure he could hang with the best of us.

I've also heard I got a buddy with a beefed up V-rod that could hand you your ass.............Blah,blah,blah.........

everyone asks me how much i paid for it. i laugh at them.

then they tell me they paid $2500 for theirs in worse shape.

Cop bikes are fun.
its funny feeling this old KZ1000 lift that front wheel going into second gear at 70-75MPH.
I know why the cops always catch up to speeders fast now too.


-------------------------------

Or, Does it run?
NO- No it doesnt run i just pushed it all the way from home holding my friggin helmet so i can sit on it on breaks moron!

I used to get "Is that a Ducati?" all the time on my blue naked SV (that's right, with the large S on the tank).

Recently, a guy came up to me in a parking lot:

Him, "Is that a BMW?"
Me, looking at the huge blue-and-white BMW logo, "Yep"
Him, "Do they use the motor as part of the frame?"
Me, "Yep."
Him, "Does it have that funky paralever suspension?"
Me, "Yep."

Dude, you already know all the cool shit about the bike, why are you asking me about it?

The most common one is people looking at my jockey shifter and ask me what it was for.....here's your sign.

I just got done telling this guy about my awesome riding weekend and how pleased I was with my bike and how it didn't give me any trouble for the ~1200 mile trip. He looks at me and asks, "Want to sell it?"

Well, hell ya, I do! As a matter of fact, I was just think that this giant piece of sh!t that just gave me so much joy needs to be sold immediately! I'll take 50 bucks.

Regarding my Z1000; this question has come up many times:

I don't get it.

PS: In defense of those people who mistake the identity of my bike; it is unmarked (I pulled off all the stickers).

I got home from riding to the store and as I was pulling my helmet off, my neighbor came out for a little chat. He said "can I hear that thing run?" I said sure, and turned on the ignition.

The cooling fan turned on and before I could even start it he said "Wow, that's a really quiet engine." I left it at that
