C14- Most stupid things people ask when stopped?

[Tremainiac]

A Harley riding friend asked if someone was riding sweep in a van or truck on our ride to Tennessee from NJ. and back.
Almost spilt my beer.

Is that an animal foot on the back of your bike? Makes me want to respond.... well it ain't a dessicated rodent!

 

But the best conversation I ever had about my bike was when the UPS delivery man at work mentioned to me that that BMW parked out front was a beautiful bike. I looked and did not see any bikes but mine and I was pretty sure it was a Kawasaki- I mentioned this but he insisted that it was a BMW. He was absolutely adamant that it was, in fact, NOT a Kawasaki and was a BMW. I suggested he take a look at the badges on the bike when he left and to my surprise he did- he walked around the bike at least twice and seemed like he just did not believe it was not a BMW even then.

The correct answer would be no, it's a "hoof"   Kinda like a BMW and C14, there is a comparison based on use, but one is vastly superior over the other.  I mean, really, has anyone ever seen an elk wearing shoes or socks?

Or winding his / her watch, or picking at his / her.... well, nevermind.

Had an older guy in a nice F150 stop alongside me at a light and ask if its called "bimmer" or "beemer". I said,"I don't know but, this is a Kawasaki."

I would have said "It is pronounced 'cow a sock eee' "

Not a stupid thing, but kind of a cool thing happened at a gas station. A guy was coming out of the convenience store part of the station after filling his truck up next to me on the C-14. As he approached, he gestures over to a group of V-twin pirates and then pointed toward my engine and said," Heh heh, if only those guys had a clue what's inside THAT!"

Just don't stop. Ever.
