Serowbot you are cracking me up. A lot of the V-Twin riders come up all the time and are astonished when they see that it's a single 650CC. Seems like they kind of respect that.
Yeah, I love the "Dang! That's one big cylinder!" comments.

Well my girlie bike may not be "pink" per say however, she is the magenta red. I call it cranberry with a touch of pink. I love it and I get many comments on the color as well as the bike itself. I am a woman and purposely went for this color. I have a pink graphics helmet and at times I wear my pink sweatshirt with my chaps.. I am proud to be a woman on a so called girlie bike.
I thought of my Rebel as a starter bike and this a step up. So far no complaints other than the oil viewing window.. I miss the dipstick the Rebel had..

I've only had one person say anything bad about my Savage in that area.
But he's not my favorite person either.So who cares
(I get lots of good things said though,like how easy they are to work on.
And how reliable they are!)

I've never had a single good comment from an HD rider. The closest was last year a few months after I got it. HD guy followed me a ways and probably thought Id be a good laugh so he whipped passed me on a no pass two lane as obnoxiously as he could with his girl on pillion. It was dumb to follow....but I did. And kept with him every bit of the way until we hit a red light. I don't remember how fast we ended up going but it was faster than the speed limit. 60 or 70 in a 45. At the light he yells "What the he11 is that?" I tell him and the light changes. He goes right I go straight. That was the "nicest" comment. The crappiest was an old fat bearded tatooed up biker looking guy(he was in a effin van) asked me what it was. I said "suzuki sa.." when he rolled his eyes and drove off...in his van. The most common HD rider response is one of disinterst more than anything. "Oh yea. The Savage. Its alright I geuss."

Proper answer was 'is your harley in back or did you loose the trailer?'

Everyone that took a whip of my "girlie bike" and asked if it's a 250. And with my response "NO, IT'S 650", they had a disblief look on their face and walk away. I smiled and thought to myself that they either embarass being wrong or they knew what this "girlie bike" can do

Grrr!,... I hate when people think my bike is a 250!...
One guy, misread the side plate and thought it was an 850!...
Broke my heart to tell him the truth...

I always "mislead" them! It hurts way more to get smoked by a 250cc than a 650. Most HD riders are posers, and wouldn't know their own brand if they wern't wearing the tee shirt. A well tuned Honda Helix scooter Will take most HD's for the first 200 yards. When they catch up and ask what it is I tell them that it is a 185. If you wan't to really hurt their feelings find an old Suzuki X6 250!
