I was with a couple of the 3%er's outside a restaurant in Atl. getting on our bikes when a guy comes up and asks New12r, 'Wow that is a tiny bike what is it a 500?'
New12r wasn't amused and told the guy, nope it's a 1200cc and the one She's on is a 1000 cc's.
Talk about a mastercard moment :}

My friend (gsxr 1000)and I (xb9R)where on Block Island (kind of like Martha's Vinyard (jaws)) when we stopped and asked a lady what was down a road. She pointed to a sign and said we can't go down there.


The sign read:

"NO MOPEDS"

Mtnchld.... what a classic moment. When someone says shit like this to me.. i make sure to pull the front wheel up when i leave : ) Now it will just be obvious that its not a 500 when i finish putting the Special Ops pipe on this weekend.

Real riders don't need it explained to them why a short wheelbase and a torque tuned motor are a serious recipe for fun.

I take it as an opportunity to explain it to non riders. I don't fit on an SV-650, the tank flare is way too short. But I could not fit better on the XB9sx.

If they are being rude about it, I just point out "I didn't buy the bike to impress you".

Buell_892 -- I made that Elim myself, I actually cut the plate mount off of the "left overs" and re-welded to the bottom so i didnt have to drill holes in my undertail, I can send you more pics if you would like.

I had a bunch of hyabusa guys tell me my bike was slow.
I just told them to remember that when this slow ass bike rips around them in the twisties.
Although by looking at their tires, I would venture a guess that none of their bikes have ever even seen anything but a straight road.

Hey Ratyson... I think I still see some chicken strips on those tires of yours....

Just messin with ya. Haven't been able to wear mine off either commuting on the interstate everyday.

I had a guy in Lake Geneva, WI tell me that I should be riding an american bike... not that Jap Crap. I pointed to the tank decal and said " Off." (It should be noted that Lake Geneva is only about 30 miles from East Troy, WI.)

Respond in a similar way the jeepers respond to the fart can racers when asked to race.

You get your bike and we'll race; Once in a location of your choice. The other in mine. I go first. Take him to some twisty's and never look back.

Or when they look at a jeep on 37s and ask
Do you take that offroad?

I always respond no

i had some girls pull up beside me the other day at a stop light and go why are u wearing a harley coat on a crotch rocket. we are a block from the damn dealership with the harley and buell signs. all i did was point that way and they saw the sign and are like oh. i mean they have to drive by there almost everyday and still cant figure it out.

and yes i wear a harley coat on my buell. so shoot me. good leather is good leather and its saved my skin a few times already. and the $0 i had to invest in that brand new harley coat seemed like a good deal to me!
