I'm still trying to get use to it too.

"What kind of ducati is that?"
748
"Oh, like what kind of model name is it though?"
748
"Sweet. How big is the engine?"
748

It was sorta funny the first handfull of times but now its really getting old.

sorry but does that mean your 954 is bigger than his 600, which is really a 599 or wot?

Actually Kawasaki does make an RR, ZX-6RR, and personally I do find Busas comfortable. My busa is more comfortable to ride than my 600RR. I have a round trip of 100 miles for work in heavy traffic and I find the trip easier on the busa then on the 600RR.
i think it was more of the fact that someone who knew dick about bikes, much less ever rode one, wanted to get the biggest bike on the planet cause they say its comfortable. and i dont even want to touch that topic again.

Yeah, personally I've only heard and researched bikes that are more 'mainstream' as in 'built more than 5-6 years. Maybe I'm behind on my Honda Loyalty dedications but I would think bikes that don't have 'parts for sale everywhere you look' would be considered a rare bike in the least form of discussion. I am about ready to switch over to a F.I. bike but the F4's sound when it's hammering down is how I wake up in the morning. Not to thread jack but if I could find a 954 I would def buy it, how much of a weight advantage does it have over a 929 or a 1k? Thread Jack in progress, all units report to the corner of 954 and jack the ripper st.

it is funny that he had to ask how big your engine was after you told him you had a cbr 954rr. I think that everyone that rides bikes should know that the digits in a bike“s type in most cases represents its engine size.
We have for example cbr600, cbr929, cbr954, cbr1000, kawasaki zx6, zx9, zx12, yamaha r6, yamaha r1, vulcan1500, vulcan1600, vulcan1800.
My ponit is.....stupid question because you just told him and he should have been able to figure it out just by thinking a little

Maybe he was just trying to be friendly and making conversations lol
