The server there asked me where are the xtra seats for the Busa. I was confused for a moment and after seeing the question mark on my face, the server wondered how we all sat on the Busa. I was speechless and when I asked the same question to Kriss and the group, they were speechless initially and then burst in to laughter.
      ROFL, where are the extra seats dude? How did you install them on a Busa?

        I parked my bike on the side of a road to take a phone call. There was a fruit seller standing a little ahead of me with his fruit cart. As he saw me hang up and put the phone back in my pocket...he looks at my bike (R15) and the questions start:

        FS=fruit seller, Me=Me

        FS: Bideshi hai kya (Is is imported?)
        Me: Haa thodi bahut(Yes...almost)

        FS: Kitne ki Hai (What's the price of this?)
        Me: Ek lakh ke upar jaata hai (Costs over a lakh)

        Come's closer and notices that there's no kick. FS: Lath marke chalu karne wali cheez yeh dabbe mein chupa di hai kya? (Is the kick start hidden in the fairing(box in his words)?)
        Me: Iske saath woh nahi aata hai (No kickstart for this bike)

        FS: Ek lakh ki gaadi aur kick nahi hai? (Costs over a lakh and no kick start?)
        Me: Company ke paas paisa kam pad gaya tha (Company couldn't afford to put more money into it)

        By now my patience is running out...but I want to complete this wonderful conversation. So I play along

        FS: Accha thik hai Abherage (average) kitna deti hai? (Alright, so whats the mileage on this one?)
        Me: Aapke Gaadi se toh kam hi deti hai (Much less than your fruit cart)

        FS grins, I grin back at him and leave

          This happened to me during my last Munar ride with my friends.One of them had got an avenger 200.NOT EVEN A SINGLE PERSON RECOGNISED IT TO BE A BAJAJ PRODUCT. They refused to accept until we should the logo on the tank.Some even went to the extent of declaring it to be a new model from Royal enfield or even Harley.We were enjoying the comments that were pouring. The last comment was done by a college student from Kerala(either this guy is totally illiterate ,coming from a 100% literate state or he is plain dumb).I wonder how people can make such comments without having even 1% of the knowledge about the product.

            This is something that is actually true in some sense

            Since my RXZ is in shambles, I suddenly decided to take it to the mechanic and get the engine running, at least. While I was dragging the bike, a physically handicapped guy on his tricycle accompanied by one of his mates makes this comment in astonichment "o dekh, kitti purani bike hai". (look at that, how old is this bike)

              A local kid saw six speed on the side of my gs150r and proclaimed "I will give you my cycle if you give me your bike, my cycle has 18 gears!!" Just patted him on this head, laughed and sent him along.

                Josh with his Gixxer 1000, entered wayanad on his trip & had to park in front of a tea stall as it was a tiring ride with the bike. The tea guy "How did you guys manage to fix the matador Engine in this?" Shocked by his words, we just went pale, paid the money & moved on!

                  This is going to be the worst of all...

                  I was talking about how Pulsar dominates the market compared to ZMX series & then the other person says BAL is blindly cheating people. When I asked how, he says, the older 180cc's has been marketed as present 150CC's, the older 200's are made as present 180's & the 220 remains the same & that's the main reason why BAL withdrew P200.

                  What made the above statement worst was that, the person who said this is a mechanic

                    And they say it so nonchalantly, with such sureness in their voice as if their ex wife owned bajaj. My SC mech once said that suzuki bores out unsold 125 ccs and makes 150s out of them and I believed him.

                      This is really good one, now FS will feel proud on his machine too.

                        This wasn't a crazy comment. Infact the best one I ve ever heard from a girl.

                        Yesterday, a friend of mine parked his dad's CT100 in my garage. This morning, my Dad, looking at both bikes (CT100 and my Hunk) said "See, how light weight this bike is, how easy it is to handle blah blah.." (He always insisted on buying a smaller bike, which I resisted by saying smaller bikes are not comfortable)

                        Then my sis said "Dad, both bikes are meant for riding, no doubt, but the difference is, one is like a Horse and the other like an Ass"
                        MOTORCYCLING IS AS MUCH ART AS IT IS SCIENCE

                          The Guy: Where did you get this modification done
                          One of us: In Koti (automotive market in Hyderabad)
                          The Guy: From Which bike have you done this mod probably from p150!!!!

                          All of us life WTF
                          All the wise men of the world are called wise only after they spoke their mind, so dont keep the ideas to yourselves!

                            Nothing to surprise on this as most N250R owners themselves prefer saying modified Pulsar to avoid hearing discouraging comments from non-bikers.

                              I once had this extreemly heated discussion with 2 wannabe automobile engineers in my 10th class.
                              They argued that all pulsars are 1000cc bikes and 150 dtsi and 180 dtsi indicates the amount of dtsi in it.
                              I'm still trying to figure out how to measure the amount of dtsi :P
