What We Say and What We Mean

"Love the bike, man! You should put on a pipe, reed cage, some hubs, a big carb, maybe some graphics. That'd be hot!"

I love your bike and am fantasizing about what I'd do with it if I could ever find a way to buy it from you.




"That's certainly an interesting bike."

What a waste of money.




"Nice CR500!!! You should paint it red and put a big "2" on the number plate"

I spend too much time watching television shows ABOUT bikes instead of walking outside and enjoying life WITH bikes.





"Nitrous on hillclimbers is cheating."

I have no faith in my own mechanical abilities so I'm afraid if I mess with nitrous, I'll screw up and blow up the engine.




"Oh, I'm going to leave this one stock."

I've owned this bike for less than a week. ( Aka Jay Lewis!!)






"I don't mess with those. They're too complicated and too expensive to work on. I can ride faster with the older stuff."

I cant afford a A/F!





"It makes about 90 hp."

I haven't been to a dyno because I'm a broke ass bitch.



"The guy at Pro Circiut says..."
...that I'd rather spend $140 on a toy that tells me what I want to hear rather than spend $20 at the MX track where I'll find out how slow my shit really is.




"I did all the work myself on this A/F."

I did all the work except machining, paint, and assembly




"For Sale"

I know I spent way too much on this bike, which is why I'm trying to sell it. But I don't really WANT to, which is why the asking price is double the actual value. Please don't tell my wife ( Mommy), okay?


"Reklus's are so much better than manuals."

I don't know how to ride a manual.



"Oh, I beat that guy before."

He had me by 30 seconds, but when he got bored he turned off into the pits... I kept going straight.



"CR500's are soooooooo overrated!!! I could take one."

I'm so far down the food chain on my 4 stroke that no HOON has bothered to stomp all over me just yet.

"Im an animal on a bike dude, I can keep up with anyone"

I have never ridden with anyone skilled on a bike.



"I want all new plastics and blingy graphics"

I would rather look at and tell people about it as im scarred of 2nd gear.



"I think the plugs fouled it wont start"

I kick like a pussy and should be on a 125

should I be offended ? not sure...
I think you will have to try better if you are trying .
as you guys know I love to ride and I dont mine spending $$ on my bikes
its a good thing

Jay.. what I said was a complament!

[hagendog]

I would have to say no one spends more than Stoffers and I on unnecessary bling. Pretty much if the fender is scratched or bent it goes in the trailer for back up. I am very proud of myself for leaving my half fender on the hillclimber just because I know it's going to get ripped the next ride, but I have 2 spares waiting. Stoffers buys all Honda stuff too, not much aftermarket. The only thing that stays on after a bad fall is the pipe cause he can blow them out. Jay, if you got it and it makes you happy...... spend it. I believe everyones faster on a pretty bike
