Funniest thing you've heard at a stoplight.
« on: October 29, 2012, 06:13:01 AM »
I was at a stop light with my 350F a few weeks ago, and I looked over to the right and the dude was grinning from ear to ear...  I looked over and nodded to him and he rolled his window down and said.  "what year is that ?"  I said it's a 72.  and he said "I had one just like that, only it was brown (??) and it was stolen.  He said "the guys who stole it moved two Harleys out of the way and passed them up to get to my 350 and stole it"  Every time i go to the local bike shop i get stopped by at least 2 guys wanting to know about my bike, and the stop light is not the first time that has happened in the short time i've owned the bike and i just thought it'd be cool to hear what kind of funny Sh** (if any) you guys have heard at stop lights.  Still waiting for a hot girl to hand me her phone number, but no luck on that one yet !!!

I used to have a 69 Mach1 with the super cobra jet and a kid in a civic said "Race you to the next stop light..."

On the 750F a guy started telling me his life story bout how he owned one (at a stoplight). I told him that's awesome and the light turned green. I had to stop off at the next gas station and the guy pulled in behind me...and continued all of his stories about wheelie-ing across the JB Bridge and how he got a handy from some girl he picked up at a bar and took her for a ride on the bike (while they were riding) and a whole lot of other stuff that is probably not clean enough to post...Due to my being overly friendly I was at the gas station for almost an hour...

I've only owned my 750K6 for a few months and have had a number of people pull up at stop lights with the old "I had one JUST LIKE THAT back in the day". A few more times and it'll start getting old  :)  Guy tried to sell a fairing couple weeks ago too.

I have a HondaChopper.com sticker in my back window of my truck and I had a guy pull up beside me at a ATM and asked if I was interested in some CB750 parts. I told him OF COURSE!

He didn't know, which I thought was bizarre. It was literally a 5 second conversation at a major intersection with alot of traffic. Not a huge fan of fairings at the moment anyhow.

I was on my bike at a light and I could hear a guy in a car in the next lane farting. He had his windows up, and I  had on a helmet. The funny part was the look on his face when we looked at each other and he realized I could hear him farting from the next lane through the window and my helmet.

Same thing happened to me!
Cop: So does this still run well?
Me: Apparently.

I was 17 at the time and I saw a car full of brunettes up ahead.  I drive like a maniac through traffic to catch up to them.  It takes a few sets of lights and a lot of stupid moved but eventually I roll up to them at a red light.  When I glance over I see the error in my ways.  There were four NUNs in the car.  Their brown hair was actually their Habits. I am a moron. True story.

My kid had to go to Illinois to get his k3 750 that had sat for 20+ years with my truck and on the way back he was at a gas station when a bunch of Harleys came rumbling up.

One eagle eyed HD rider said "Yo!, is that a 73?"
My kid - Yep it sure is.
HD rider- Does it still run?
My kid- Well it did when it was last parked. :)

Buddy and I were out riding and spotted a couple of ladies in a car just ahead of us.  We pull up and my buddy says "Hey, ladies.  Wanna go for a ride?"  The driver replied "F##k off".  So my buddy says "That's OK, the are ugly anyway."  When the light changed, they took off.  When we got up to about 35mph, they emptied a very full ashtray out the window.   :o

Guys are funny.  We hit on chicks and if we score we are sure to tell our buddies that they were 10s for sure.  When they reject us we walk away saying they were ugly anyway!!  Its GREAT to be a guy.

Funny but odd.

I rolled up to a traffic light, a car rolls up next to me.
It was a car full of mexican guys. (calm down)
One of them says , You want to fix those dents? (beat up VW bus),
I politely said no,that I did not want to fix them.
Then the guy says , I'll give you a real good price. Something like that.
I said again politely that I did not want to fix the dents.
At that point the guy got real angry and says, " How much for the whole bus?"
(what the hell??)
That is when I got nervous. The light changed and I made a unexpected immediate right turn and lost them.

I was worried the guy was violent or on drugs....something.

One more old man story TRUE story. (involves a stoplight)


My friend and I were on our way to play guitar at this club about 70 miles from home.
We were on the freeway.
My friend looks over at the car in the next lane and says ,"Hey there is some paper money stuck on the radiator of that car,  It is a $100 bill."  I said,"are you sure?
The car was going to exit the freeway and I thought to myself that if that car stops at the end of the off ramp or traffic light that $100 dollar bill is going to fall on the ground.
So even though I thought we might be a little late to the gig I followed the car off of the off ramp and sure enough there was a traffic light and it was RED!!!!
As soon as the light changed my friend jumped out of the car and grabbed the $100 dollar bill. I offered to split the bill 50/50 with him but he owed me money so he said I could just have it. I said are you sure? (i knew he had to eat).
We got to the gig on time too.
But wait the story is not over. The next day I am listening to the radio and there is a story about a woman who goes to a bank and borrows $3000.00 dollars to buy a used car.
She puts the money on her friends dashboard and all of the money gets blown out of the car onto the road. It is all $100 dollar bills. You guessed it, it was the same location We found the $100 bill the previous day.
But the money was already spent.
I felt sorry for that woman, but who in their right mind would set $3000. on a dashboard in a moving car on a hot day?

LOL great stories guys!  and that's a wild story about the $100 bill, Lucky! ha!

i get a lot of baby boomers hooting and hollering at me when i take my 550 out.   lots of offers to buy it too, but no one's hit the magic number yet.

i did have someone tell me that my ass looks great on the bike, but it was my friend's gay brother (he was just messing with me)....

My kid was telling me the other day that about a month ago as he was cruising through Bloomington, IN he had some lady driving in the next lane to his right with her drivers window down. Nothing unusual there except that his k3 750 has an obnoxiously loud Kerker 4/1 exhaust and as they were pulling away from a stop light he unintentionally blew his shift into 2nd gear and that lady got an earful of the Kerker letting out a bellow. Needless to say the lady wasn't very happy about that and then tailgated him for about 2 or 3 blocks. All my kid could say was "Ooops"
