zx10 squid
last week i had a guy come into my shop wanting a bike. after a lil he told me he wanted a zx10. he had never ridden before so i tried to put him on a zx6. he told me "look i know what i want, ill get tired of a 600" so being the salesman i am i was like **** it, lets fill out a credit app. he hopped on the bike about an hour later after doin his paperwork and could not even get it started hell he almost dropped it trying to get moving. after watching him stall and stall he finally got it MOVING. and did not get above idle he was coasting downhill with both feet draggin the ground. he had to have another customer ride the bike home for him...what a dumbass, thanks for the commish tho!

hahaha, typical... sounds like my old roommate when he bought his 929. I ran into him just the other day and he's like "i've been getting real good at riding! i did a wheelie the other day!" And I'm just like whatever.. lol

RE: zx10 squid
There's my little salesman...
! It must be strange for you, Meat, to know what isf_cking rediculousand what will make you money. If a guy wants to make the worst decision, you can't refuse to sell him a bike...you might get fired. Anyway, good job on recommending a smaller bike, and bad jobfor the a$$hole that bought the litre. Hope he lives to tell the tale...

Do you guys need a motorcycle license where you are to buy a bike? In Florida, they wouldn't sell me a bike without the endorsement. Just wondering what state you are in.
