Actually all I get are positive comments here in Fla, too. Even the tugboat(harley) guys at my work like it. I did have some joke about why I didn't get a harley so I told them they won't sell me one untill my wife gains 100 lbs and I start dressing like a dirtbag.
i work at a chemical plant with about 50 people in my shop. all of them could afford a hayabusa, if only there old lady would let them. so some try to live there life through my busa. the same stuff about how fast you've had it, and you aint a man unless you see that 180mph mark. when i comes to that i say i've seen 130 on the speedo and it was nice for 3 seconds, want to go on a ride with me, ole i forgot you dont have a bike, hmmm. i've also heard that the busa isnt the fastest anymore, and a friend of a friend has this color bike that'll out run a busa. well, i just listen and politely walk away. no use in argueing over quarter times or top speeds. i'm happy with what i have and the talkers can talk. to bad 99% of them dont have a bike or one that can even match the busa. so i just ride away at the end of the day knowing those guys are saying i wonder what its like. to bad so sad your old lady wears the pants in the family. hell my xr650l(pushed to 675) will outrun anything in the parkinglot. funny how some people live there life. let i go. busa's rule the road.
that pic of the XR650L has my brother holding it. thats alot of work on that thing. down to the frame to get it powered coated and engine upgrade, not to mention $1000 in rims and tires. i geared her up for street use. a wheelie machine she is. shes got 18500 miles of hard use and still pulling. love it.
Being humble is the only way to handle idiots like that. Now if you feel so inclined as to hand them their ass on a silver platter...then by all means do so.
