    Default Tigress Roar

    A lady & a guy were looking at my Vulcan today, lady admiring it wondering model/make, dude says it's a knock off of a Harley. He did not know I was standing behind him. I did well, although I have a short fuse I didn't smack him upside his head with my helmet.
    I started her, immediately she responded & as I twisted the throttle she roared like a tigress about to capture her prey. When we reached the winding roads she begged me to let her lean into the curves & let the wind caress & cool her humming engine. Ah! What a feeling, I could have cruised all day.

    Does your bike still have the badges on it and the side stickers that say Kawasaki? If it does...then yes...they needed a little schooling.

    Last year.. Riding with my buddy Jason who is on his Suzuki Enduro and I was on my Busa.. He has had many Harleys in the past but recently decided he was done with them.. His opinion is that they are over priced and under quality.. Anyway.. we are at a red light right before the on-ramp to the highway we were getting on and isnt he wearing the classic Harley black and orange leather jacket.. A guy on a road king pulls up next to us and says "hey wheres your Harley?" with a lil attitude like he was wearing the jacket with hopes of some day owning one.. I swear, it was like he had been just waiting for this question, with a grin ear to ear (very easy to see in an MX helmet) he said "The **** thing is in the shop again!!" and we smoked him from the light.. Still makes me laugh

    especially since you could've had the lady hop on the back and go for a ride on a real bike. two good results from that situation !

    I geuss if you were parked at the side of the road, sitting over (someone else's) oil patch he may have been genuinely confused. Of course once you started it, as you mentioned, all doubt was removed.
    So you want to buy a sportbike as your first bike and have questions?
