What weird things have people done to your motorcycle?
Yesterday I was at the gas station putting a small puff of air in my tires after getting my bike out for the first time this year. In a span of 10 seconds this 70-year-old guy gets out of his Jeep and wants to "thank me" on behalf of his massive Harley chapter and shakes my hand and then proceeds to kiss my bike's tank gas cap. I'm totally taken aback and was so caught off guard I didn't know how to respond. Guy ended up being a super nice guy in town for a fishing trip. We had a great conversation, but...what a way to greet a stranger. Now that I think about it, I think the lip marks are probably still on there. Where's my microfiber?
When I had a CRF250L, I'd regularly have women come up and ask how heavy it is, because they're thinking of buying one. I'd put the bike on the ground and show them how to lift it. So... weirdest thing is dropping my bike intentionally to let women pick it up for me.
That's awesome and not what I was expecting! I imagine most of them could pick it up? Any tips for swapping out 70-year-old men for getting women to talk to you? Delete even more chrome?
Step 1) Have a bike that women want to talk about. I think that's about it.
