I've had several of these mentioned also to include the deputy sheriff ask how fast does it go. My reply...gets to the speed limit pretty darn quick.

I had a guy come up to me at the gas pump and ask if you could get a hardtop for it.

I was sitting at a traffic light on a very busy street in Savannah today. A car pulled up beside me with the window down. A young lady with a cigarette dangling from her left hand shouted "Will it haul A**. I answered "Well it carries mine quiet nicely."

Most of the time, I find that people ask silly questions about the Spyder as a way of trying to start a conversation.
As a good ambassador, I simply respond as best as I can.
If they ask a question like "Is that thing electric" I will merely say that no, this one runs on gas, but there is a hybrid version in the works.
If you make fun of people because they don't understand the details of the bike, you might be mistaken for those 1% riders who feel superior to all the others strictly based on the brand of motorcycle they ride.
If it ain't broke, don't break it.

At the BP in Riceville, TN the follow statement was made:
"Holy Sh** dude! Is that like a future bike or something?"

Tell them, "Yes... and your time machine is functioning as planned..."

I don't feel superior based on the brand of bike I ride. I feel superior because most of the human race are idiots. Dumb questions deserve dumb answers. :P or at least humorous answers.

Two older Ladies looked at me like they wanted to ask a question, i said, would you like to take it for a ride?? they just smiled, so i handed the key to one of them and said, be back in an hour, or i will have to come looking for you, they both laughed out loud, one said to the other " wouldn't that be a hoot". made my day

I don’t know if this one has been posted yet but it is a first for me.
At the gas station as I’m filling up with gas, the guy on the other side of the pump asks me if that thing is electric.
I said I don’t think I would be at the gas station if it was electric?

The Dumbest Comment /Question Ive Heard
-
While gasing up one day, a group of surfer dudes pulled in to the pumps next to me. They all got out and came over to check out my . One asks the normal questions, what is that, is it street legal, is it fast, how much?, ect, ect... Then one of the other boys says, that would be so cool to have, but there is no place to put my surf board. To which I said, not now, but you could have a rack made that goes on the trailer hitch.
He is sold, said he will get one as soon as he gets a job and has money. So i'm guessing not for awhile.

While pumping gas at about 6am, a guy walk over from his pump and ask, how do you like this thing. I nicely replied.
his next question: Was this a design flaw, cause the 2 wheels are in the front and not the back. My response this time was dude it is to early for the bull poopie questions and I rode off.

Heres the dumbest one I heard just the other day
Question:
"What do you with in the winter"
Answer:
"I open the frunk hit the flux capacitor button and the fandangle pops out clearing the road and producing heat.
Response:
"OH I thought it had some dome that goes over it"
Yep I drove off at that point!

GOS member (Girls On Spyders)
At Spyderfest (800 spyders came) this year we were stopped at gas station. Typical comments like "what is it". Then the statement that took me to my knees. "I think they're getting more popular cause I've been seeing a lot of them things around here lately!"

I don't particularly like the attention. I am not paid by BRP to shill their products and could care less what other folks think of my Spyder. I am not an "Ambassador" or sales rep for them. Course, I don't wave at other bikers either so I must be a crabby old b*****d.

I've got a SpyderFest story too!
While getting some fuel on Saturday, a younger fella walked over and asked what all of these "Strange-looking bikes" were doing here.
I simply responded,
