Hello All, I just wanna say I work in multi-line dealership the big four and HD, I have ridden the 1125R and I assure you I know as much if not more about sportbikes than anyone on this board (barring LH) hehee, so if you wanna buy an 1125r from someone who knows the bike and why it does what it does just ask me:-) really though wanna dispell the harley salesman myth. . I know a bit about sportbikes, my last 2 were zx-10r and GSXR750. . thanks guys you come very highly reccomended. SG | ||

"I assure you I know as much if not more about sportbikes than anyone on this board" GREAT introduction  . Thank you for checking your dealership (wherever that may be) off of my list. I owe you a beer. Oh BTW... "Sportbikes" is two words... Sport Bikes. Thank you... Drive through. | ||

Is this a joke…has to be…or do you really lack that much humility? Four post and you’re an expert on the members on this site to make that statement. Take care and ride safe, Jason (Message edited by V8KILLR on October 04, 2007) | ||

Hey Salesguy Don't mind M1, he simply appreciates proper grammar and spelling. He's also recovering from a traumatic experience he had at the fast food joint he used to work at. He's really saying, "Welcome to the BadWeb, Salesguy! We've been waiting for you." So tell me about the 1125R... What does it do, and why does it do it? Where have you ridden it? How many is your dealership getting, and when? Which HD Salesman myth are you attempting to dispel? What happened to your last 2 sport-bikes? (you seem to refer to these bikes in the past tense) | ||

}I assure you I know as much if not more about sportbikes than anyone on this board What a poseur. People like you, that come off like this, are exactly the ones I DON'T ask when I need to know something. I already have four kids that think they know everything, I can live without another one. For all we know, you could be some 19 year old mouth-breather that has been riding for about 4 months on a clapped out R1 that you "got a deal" on. Reading every issue of Cycleworld and Sportrider doesn't translate to a degree in sport biking. Please. | ||

Yeah some sales guy came in and tried to tell me he knew more about burgers than me and the rest of the guys I worked with. "How's that?" I said... I've been working here for four months. Longer than any other job I'd had at the time. Since then I've made it to six and a half but that was before the great cheese-thumb incident of 04. Anyway, I digress. So why does it does what it do Salesguy? I mean in your professional non-harley sales guy opinion and all... Oh and... What hammer said . | ||

LOL!!! MOUTH BREATHER ... I haven't head that one in a while . | ||

oooh somebody opened the #10 can of DOH! this should get fun...ive been riding for over 30 years and what i know about sport bikes i can write on one page of paper im sure....wish i knew as much as that guy does...what a smooth opener... i must say his dealership would do well to shove him over to the harley side of the shop so the myth isnt dispelled and can survive. | ||

Damn,you guys are harsh. Why not just say hello and wait to see if he is for real or not. Sure tell when it's winter around this place,no outlet for the stress. | ||

"I just wanna say I work in multi-line dealership the big four and HD ..." --------------------------------- Is there such a thing? A Honda/Kawasaki/Yamaha/Suzuki/Harley-Davidson-Buell dealer? Anyhow, welcome to the forum; we will look forward to being enlightened. | ||

Up until recently, F&S Buell in Dayton had Suzuki, Kawasaki, Buell, and Harley. They had to "seperate" them into two buildings, but the buildings were connected by a hallway and you can go freely back and forth (sales and customers). They dropped all but Buell and Harley. | ||

Listen to the Fireman--he's smarter than he looks! Give the guy a chance--this is BWB, the kinder, gentler biker BBS. rt | ||

ive been here a little while...never seen a newcomer open by saying he knows as much or more about sport bikes than everybody else...i would say u reap what u sow....he sowed now he's gettin reaped...ive been reaped here for much less...so let the games begin.personly i wouldnt trust someone who out of the gate claimed to know more than i do...been in the auto industry for many years and it never fails that when u meet the guy that claims to be a genious...he aint. | ||

Hmm... In honor of "Salesguy", own3d after 4 posts: http://salesguy.justgotowned.com/ I think that he sets expectations too high. He should start out lower and work his way up.  | ||

LMAO. . OK this came off way wrong. . I was just trying to convey that I knew a bit about sportbikes. . not that I was the best thats ever been, I wrote this after reading a post on HD sales people. . I just wanted to stress that not all are so one sided to believe that nothing but HD exists, because I know a few of them:-) I sold the zx-10 in july to a guy out of NY for a small:-) profit after owning it for 2 years, I am currently researching my next bike. I rode the Buell at Mid-O, Probably one of the best bikes I've ridden on the track, my complaint is this...Hand controls are stil off of an eliminator 125, and the back end of it is like every other sport XB model, I think for the money they want for it they could have upgraded those 2 items. And for M1, I grew up with an English Professor so I am pretty sure I can speak any english I wanna. . lol I heard you guys were great and I assure you I didn't mean to come across as a know-it-all, If I did I apologize and hope you guys can move past that. . lol Thanks, SG | ||

this is a pretty cool place to be as far as forums go...gets interesting from time to time but not nearly as mean as some places...welcome to the club...it is nice to see someone who sells harleys that can see past the chrome....sales guy meet cityxslicker and a few others here in ur positon that respect the need to do something outside of going in a straight line....blood in and blood out . consider urself initiated. | ||
| Salesguy |
OK . OK now that I read it again I do sound like a douchebag. . .I apologize. SG | ||

No problem, the dogs usually dump their loads right by the front door and newbies often step in a pile or two on the way in. Wipe your feet off and stick around, good place to visit once you get a feel and find your way around. | ||
| Zac4mac |
Sweet coal, I think I shit myself Z Hey salesguy, look at the bright side. If you stick around it will only get better for you. Ride safe and listen lots. | ||

No problems here Salesguy, I knew want you meant. Sometimes we have a quick trigger finger here on the BadWeB, but you'll never find a better online or in person community of people. --Sean | ||

Thanks for the got owned link. Welcome. | ||

FYI, Battley Harley-Davidson is a multi brand dealership, Ducks, Yami, and BMW. If fact for a little trivial, Battley’s the first Buell dealership in the world. That’s some thing I always wished they advertised. They are a GREAT dealership…thank god I’ve got Hal’s as a replacement since moving from Washington D.C.. Jason P.S. no hard feelings Salesguy and welcome! (Message edited by V8KILLR on October 05, 2007) | ||
