I've got the "do a wheelie" thing and "can you put skis on the front and ride it in winter". But mostly it been "That thing is cool":thumbup: I had one lady trying to take pictures of me while we were both doing 75 on the highway. She was driving.:lecturef_smilie:

I have all the stickers off mine so I can put on graphics. I have a zuma 550 with the smart antenna mounted up on the dash just back of the windshield. I was grabbing a smoke standing about 5 foot away and a couple walked by She asked "what is that" the guy looked it over and said " Its that new motorcycle from Garmen. I hear they are really fast" I almost swallowed my cigarette.

Another time a Harley rider looked at it and said "is that one of those new reverse trikes?" I told him no the rest are reversed this one is made the right way.

Finally I stopped at the Harley shop I was looking for a flag kit. My bike was immediately surrounded and everyone was complimenting it and several asking intelligent questions. This older than dirt(and covered in dirt) guy with three front teeth and a scraggly beard wandered up. "Is that your bike?" Yes it is I replied. "Well that is the most butt ugly thing I have ever seen" I told him "well beauty is in the eye of the beholder, maybe there is even someone that thinks your good looking" Everyone started laughing and I thought he was going to slug me. A couple of young bucks must have thought so to they closed in, in front of him and he wandered off.:doorag:

Harley

This is not a comment persay, but none the less I found it funny.:roflblack: This morning as I was riding on a four lane street with stoplights about every 1/4 mile; I pulled up right behind a rough looking dude riding a Harley with very loud pipes. I could see him looking back at me in his rear view mirror and when the light changed he took off like a BOH (trying to show me how fast his Harley was) so I just stayed right on his tail until the left lane cleared and passed him like he was setting still (he was really rapping it out in every gear). At the next stoplight he stopped behind me a little and wouldn't even look at me. I knew then that he had enough.
BTW, I usually don't race at stop lights but I just couldn't resist:shemademe_smilie:

A couple days ago I was at the coffee shop and when I came out a guy was sitting in his car and asked what company made the Spyder and I told him and as he was backing out he says "looks like I'll be doing some web searching this afternoon":spyder:

Coming back to the parking lot in a supermarket (my Spyder was parked between two vans) I overheard a lady telling her husband:

I want one! Its looks like a baby!

At a stop light a guy was stopped next to me in his car and asked if that was a snowmobile conversion. I told him no, it's a manufactured vehicle from BRP.

Another dude asked if that was a bike with an aftermarket conversion kit.

As some said, women say it's cute or real cool.

From guys: how much? how fast will it go? where do you buy them? Can you pull a wheelie?

This one really got me. I just filled up with gas at the pumps and started it up, then these three dudes came by, and were really freaked out over the spyder because they never saw one. One of the guys wanted to hear it reved up to see how it sounds, and he grabbed my throttle and gave it a twist. :yikes: OK!...THAT WAS BOLD!...GEESE! Anyhow, no harm done and I was on my way.

Forgot one!

A couple of ladies that I work with said it looks like a lobster.

Yesterday was stopped at a local drive in and was asked.. "Wow that must be a great offroader.. Does it have four wheel drive?"

Told him ..."No it only has three wheel drive....":roflblack:

 

[superfly3]

My favorite one is over hearing people say hey look a snowmobile with wheels,its a girly bike and I tell them no it isn't,it is just as fast as yours!

 

[superfly3]

while in Yellowstone

The funniest comment I have heard so far - During our trip through Yellowstone we stopped to take pics of some buffalo. While we are taking the pics my wife started laughing because people were taking pics of us sitting on the :spyder:. One women walked up and asked if it was an ATV and if it was legal to ride on the highways? Cracked me up since we have Oregon plates. Hard to get to Wyoming from our place without riding on a highway or two.

I had a young kid (maybe around 7 or 8) come up to my Phantom and ask if it was the Batmobile. I said "Yes it is and I have to get it back to the cave before Bruce Wayne realizes it's gone."

I'm lazy and not checking the (a.k.a. "MY") previous posts, so I may be repeating myself.

I had a couple rednecks come out of a gas station and ask me if I built it. So I told them yes. I said I was sick of not being able to ride my snowmobile year-round so I bought a kit on the Internet called "Sno-Mo-Wheels"! Those dumba$$es believed me! I thought the Trike rider at the next pump was going to pass out from restraining his laughter!
