I don't care who you are.....that there is funny! hehehehehe

I've gotten a few times, "aren't those things prone to flipping, didn't they made 3-Wheelers illegal?"


No moron, this isn't the 1980s with one wheel in the front and two in the back like the old school ATVs. :banghead::roflblack:

 

[Bob Denman]

"Is it a Transformer?"
"Yes, it is... it transformed all of my cash into GOOD TIMES!"

 

[ARtraveler]

Wow! Will that really do 200 MPH? Yes, that's what the speedo says. (Don't tell them you have to set it to KPH first though). :roflblack::roflblack:

Best I ever had was the guy who followed me into a parking lot and asked how the steering connected to the rear wheel.

I explained that the bars controlled the front wheels but he would have none of that.

"I just watched you turn in here and that thing turned just like my fork lift does with the rear wheel", he argued.

He got down on the ground and checked everything out and still didn't believe me.

Finally he said, "you're just puttin' me on ain't ya... I know that thing steers from the rear."

He finally left still talking to himself.

Then there was the lady who came up to me at a rest area on the interstate and asked...."Can you drive those things on the highway?"

I was tempted to tell her I flew it in, but didn't have the heart.

"Is it legal to ride that thing on the highway?" :dontknow:

Think we were posting at the same time...

 

[Bob Denman]

"How fast will it go?", is usually the second question that gets asked... :thumbup:

I just point to the analog Speedo, and watch them try to wrap their minds around THAT! :roflblack:


When they ask if they're legal to ride on the highway, tell them "No! That's why you have to be able to go 200 mph..."

 

[PrairieSpyder]

. . .

He finally left still talking to himself.
. . . .

I think that may have been his default state!

 

[Cruzr Joe]

Had one wanted to know "Can ya ride that thing in the water" i replied yea one time. he just said "Cool" and walked away.

man does that thing turn?

nope ... it's hell trying to get from one side of the road to the other. other than that its a fun ride.



my brother almost bought one of those at Costco a few weeks ago.



I saw a guy do a wheelie on one of those one time. it was awesome.

 

[cuznjohn]

two most common things asked of me is, are the graphics stick on or paint, and how much was this thing

Question I have been asked is "can we borrow that for our wedding vehicle?":roflblack:

:shocked: It's got to be tough to turn down a request like that...
But it's a NICE question to be asked!! :thumbup:

 

[Trbayth]

"Is it fun to ride?"

No man, it sucks. I have to force myself to ride it every day.

"Is it electric?"

"Did you have that custom made?"

With the GS "did you build it yourself?"
With the RT "does it have three wheels?"
