Believe it or not, they usually respect that kind of answer and the fact that you had backbone.  |
Awhile back while on the Ural, a chaps 'n' conchos type gave me the "real bike" remark at a gas station. He was smiling when he said it, so I figured it was just good-natured ribbing. I said "my bike's an underpowered, air-cooled twin with WWII technology that leaks oil and has sketchy reliability; what more do you want?"
He got a pretty good laugh out of it.
