The dumbest Spyder question yet.

[Bob Denman]

When Nancy first got her Spyder, a guy came up in a shopping center parking lot, and asked "Why in the world would anyone want to ride something like that? I replied that it was the closest dealer to the mental institution where I was staying.

:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::2thumbs:
Most folks walk up and look at the dash... "200?" WOW!" hyea:

 

[sealfloorboards]

Great stuff! I've been asked most of them. One guy asked if it would go 60. I said yes. He said "how is it at that speed?" I said "Fine but time to shift into 2nd". Some amazing questions out there!

 

[Bitten]

I have also been ask many time about it being legal but the the best one so far is can you do a wheelie and another one I get is can you do a endo.

I was asked the same question by a couple of guys in a pick-up truck. I told them that if they could do one, so could I.

When they ask me if I can do a wheelie I say "Yes, but only in reverse." hyea:

Yes, but only the front left

[Lifeisadaydream]

Some friends actually commented on my Facebook page to get off that reverse trike because that was "not normal":wrong:

And why would you want to be "normal" anyway?

Me: "At about 130MPH!"

When ever someone asks me a stupid Motorcycle Reference question/insult about the spyder. Such as Is that a Sport Bike with training Wheels? I always reply.. " Its not a Motorcycle Its a Spyder"
which usually gets a "whats that" and I reply.. Its something totaly new.. Then tell them how much better a Spyder is than an obsolete Motorcycle.. In a polite technical manner ofcourse.. and after explaineing its finner points and zero to 60 in 4.5 seconds and registered for 200 mph they are usually asking where they can buy one..

I got asked that once before by a buddy, too. I told him: when I stop valuing my life so much.

The best one I've been asked is "Can you put skis on that and use it in the snow?" :yikes: I could tell this guy was very serious so I said "Yes but it has no track like a snow mobile so you can only use it on the road when there is enough snow".:roflblack::2thumbs:

 

[SpydeRider2010]

now you folks do realize... the people who ask these question... BREED!!!

 

[Oldmanzues]

I love all these. I was stopped by policeman for "bugs' on my licesne plate a couple years ago.
Then the other day, I was asked by a motorcycle rider(bagger), does that have any luggage space, I said no, that was streamlining so it could reach 200 so fast. He said, he might look at them, if they did. I guess he thought those open spaces in the body were poor quality control.
