    Default The dumbest comment / question I've heard...

    "It only has one key.. wow cool"

    I mean WTF, what motor vehicle or recreation vehicle has two keys. This one was so dumb I could not even respond.

    Being the Devils Advocate, Maybe they meant the key opens the trunk and raises the seat with out removing it from the ignition switch ?
    On most bikes you have to take the key out of the ignition and unlock the gas cap.

    This might top that one: "Do the front wheels turn?" I do believe all of them turn (on their axis), or we wouldn't get anywhere, right!?!?!?

    Try this one. "Is that any fun to ryde?" Like you, what could I say but shake my head and wonder how he's made it this far in life.

    Just the other day someone asked:

    "So, is that thing rear wheel drive?"

    I told him no, it's 4-wheel drive. You should have seen the look on his face!

    Number One: 2008 Yellow GS SM5. I love my Spyder.
    Number Two: 2012 RT-S Limited (the poop colored RT) I still have Number One, but Some Girl made me buy Number Two...

    The other day while I stopped to get some ice "Does it ride well?"

    My answer should have been "No, it rides like ... I just like to torture myself"

    Fella pulled up next to me at a light and looked at the right wheel and asked

    "Does it have one on the other side?"
    He pulled forward so he could see it and said "Oh!"

    I had a guy say to me last week "What's that a car?" Then he wanted to know if it was made in America. I told him Canada. He went into the store and came out and saw another guy looking at the Spyder. Suddenly he was an expert he tells the other guy "Hey that things made in Canada"

    I've only had my RT for 2 1/2 months and 5300 miles, but so far the dumbest question has been "Does that have an electric motor!!"

    Someone asked me if it had air conditioning. I told him "yeah, all the air conditioning I want", while pointing to the wide open space around me.

    While we were on a ride one day, we stopped at this little diner. They have the best homemade pies. But any way when we were ready to go, this hay seeder came out and looked at the spyder. He had a john deere hat and bib overhales on.While looking at it, he made the comment(did you buy that at SEARS). I said no. Then he asked me, how much did you pay for it. Then he answered his on question.I bet you paid about $5000.00 for it. I said no. Just a couple dollars more. He was so surprised. Then he said(CAN I SIT ON IT).
    I said no. That this is not a carnival ride.

    I got the common "Does it have three wheels?" while he was standing right there where he could count the wheels. What is American education coming to?
