Best comment from a child on your bike?

[skidMark]

As we all know kids see a motorbike and jaws drop...

now what i'm wondering is whats the best/ funniest comment, reaction some kid has seen when they see your bike parked up.

for me it was the other day in mission bay, with the zxr parked next to my mates 1970 suzuki a100

about 40 schoolkids walk past,on a school trip i would assume

they all pointed out to each other look at the red one and going gaga over my zxr...

i said hey kids which one you like more the red one (my zxr), or the black one(my mates a100)

they all went the red one...

ego boost lol

i'm sure you guys have much better ones, and i wanna hear them, so spill.

SM :devil2:

[Taz]

I don't really worry what anyone else thinks of my ride. One day you wont either. Main thing is that you like your skanky ZXR. And kids don't know shit.....

A few years ago when Mrs H and I were still in our 250 stage, we were sitting at a sidewalk cafe table with our bikes parked on the footpath a couple of metres away. This black Mercedes Benz SUV-on-steroids thing pulls up and parks, bristling expense-account aggression. Buffed dad gets out, walks around to the kerbside rear door to release a three-year-old boy from the confines of a booster seat. Son's first reaction on exiting the Merc was to point at our bikes and say in a loud state of excitement "Look daddy, motorbikes!"

As dad walked past us I said "I bet he didn't get that excited when you brought the Merc home..."

The fathers reply was silence i assume?

[Hitcher]

Indeed. He looked decidedly deflated. His million-dollar Merc was easily bested by an EL250 Eliminator and an FZX250 Zeal, total value $8,000.

[MadDuck]

Stopped for a ciggy break...little person nearly walks into a lamp post .....looks from me to the bike...the bike to me...me to the bike...tugs on mothers sleeve and acclaims

"Look mum its a girl" - I assume the little person meant me and not my bike:bleh:

i pulled a wheelie on my hyobag one day,

my kid on the back was stil crying half an hour later when we stopped an said "i didnt think you could wheeli these"

it was so funny, like neow fuckin meh meh funny

[deanohit]

Best (and only) one for me was taking a mates 11yo down the shops the long way on a frosty morning. As soon as we got home again he asked through chattering teeth if we could go for a longer ride when it was warm. :laugh:

[Ewan Oozarmy]

My 2 year old "told" me to give him my work pass necklace and that he was "going to work on daddy's motorbike". I put my pass over his head and after a couple of seconds thought asked "mummy, how do I open the front door?"

Made us laugh :)

[klingon]

My little black Volty was parked next to a silver SV1000S. Some little kids walked by and said to their mother "oooh look at that silver motorbike!" But they skirted waaaay around the SV and went up and gave the Volty a pat on the saddle.

That's the kind of reaction I want from kids. Mine is a friendly wee bike :hug:

[Sis]

A group of us parked at the lights and the kids (brother & sister) in the car next door are pointing and looking longingly at the bikes. I saw that there was a little trike in the back, so clipped up the front of my helmet and said something along the lines of it wont be long before you will be on one of these instead of the trike. All in the car showed some pleasant surprise, as they realised that, yes, girls can ride bikes too.

[hyobad]

[McJim]

It wasn't kids but it was funny. My bike was parked between Gremlin's ZX10 and yamahaR64life's R6 - both of which are post 2005 bikes. Members of the general public kept walking up to the three bikes and going "oooh, aaaahh" over the scarlet 10 year old Ducati worth about one third of the value of the Kwak.
Gremlin just shook his head and asked me what the fuck was up with these people.

Some years ago, up at Orewa, have a cig break and this little person says "Look mum a harley", I look around to see the harley then realised he was talking about my old VT 250

I was getting similar reactions when I was on the ferry bringing my bike home. No other bikes there but considering most people probably admired my bike then walked to their cars that were worth 3-4 times more:2thumbsup

[quallman1234]

All the little kids at school ask if i ride a motorbike :shutup::first:. Kinda annoying actually.

[Wolf]

Frequently have kids wave from the side of the road or out the back of the cars in front. Heading home from work tonight and a couple of kids were staring at the bike as they crossed the pedestrian crossing in front of me, then I turned up the side street and went past a parked SUV where a kid (1.5-2 years at a guess) just loaded into, or about to be taken out of, a stroller turns its head to watch me pass - "stuff daddy's car, that bike is way more interesting" kind of look.

Didn't stop to ask how the bloke felt that his young-un was more interested in a battered 223cc road-trail than his shiny SUV...

[Shadows]

"Go faster!" has got to be right up there.

[scumdog]

WTF is that?

[BarBender]

Pullup next to a Lamborghini Gallardo at a set of lights with my 12 year son on the back. His visor goes up and he says to me..."Learn this guy Dad."

[Steam]

A little kid burst into tears and refused to look as its mum carried it past. I was wearing my skull mask, black half-helmet and sunglasses, and riding the Apocalypse (which has real skulls tied to it.)

[klyong82]

Bike was on a hoisted workshop bike bench/stand at a bike shop and a couple comes in and guy says "Hunny, now that's a Fireblade" proceeds to the bike and inspecting it. Turns to me and says is this your bike? Now that's one mint bike. Love to own one of this some day.

Hehehe. You monster! Terrorising small children like that.

Was the mum also terrified as she hurried her child away from the "Satanic Biker"?

[R6_kid]

Had a little kid come up to me at BP when i was riding The Stranger's GSXR1000K3 back from Taupo... he said "Only cool people ride those bikes aye.... they go really fast"

[inlinefour]

Put the boy on the CBR when he was 6 and I went up there for a visit while cruising the North Island. First thing out of his mouth was "wheres the key dad"?

Was the same trip as when we came and visited your pad.

[cowboyz]

I was at the shops and just got back to my bike getting stuff sorted in the packrack and a kid of about 5 yrs and his mother were walking up the street. The kid yells out "cool bike, I want one like that one day"

I gave the kid the thumbs up as his mother grabbed his arm and took a few steps quicker. I could hear her starting a ramble with something like "Never , Dangerous ... blah blah blah"

You know what that kid is going to be doing in 10 years.............

The perfect post. If the mods hadn't taken away all my functionality, I would have rep'd you for that.

[The Lone Rider]

I repeatedly get told "I love your Harley!" or "Wow, cool Harley" even though I in fact do not own a Harley at this present time.

Thats good.. because you know.. Harley's are all bling, fat, and loud. It was what I was going for :D Now if only I could find a way to lower the rear easily.

[cynna]

my worst was when i came roaring up our shared driveway on my sportster with drag pipes and the little kid next door got the fright of her life and ran full force into the fence and wet her pants

i wasnt very popular with her mum for a while

[cynna]

I repeatedly get told "I love your Harley!" or "Wow, cool Harley" even though I in fact do not own a Harley at this present time..

haha i used to get that on my honda nv750 as well

[Wolf]

I've had the Suzuki TS125 (dual-sport, for those too young to remember them), Honda CB360 and a couple of other non-cruiser-style bikes called "Harleys" by kids and been asked by other kids if various bikes are Harleys - guess that's an example of good advertising if the name seems to be the only one they've heard.

My kids are better educated and proudly yell out "look, dad, that's a Yamaha!" (or Suzuki, Honda, BMW, Hyosung etc) - proud that they can read the badges. ("Look, it's got 'YA-MA-HA' ")

[Skyryder]

Thisi smart arsed kid comes up to me just after I put the bike on the stand.

That's a cool bike mister. Why is the engine on the wrong way??:angry2:

[Disco Dan]

Was working and my boss (who has heard a few "inflated" stories about my riding) was late and needed to get to the hospital, but rush hour traffic meant she would never make it in time... I offered with a huge grin on my face (she is daammmm hot) to take her on the back of the monster... :wari: ...geared up and took off as fast as I dared through North Shore rush hour traffic... just about breaking the speed limit through stationary cars... got her there on time... but she was so white with fear she had to break her "ive quit smoking for 6 months" and have a ciggy before going in!!!!!

...Biggest ego boost ;) ...now I have new respect from my boss... with the added bonus that she smiles everytime I pull up... ;)

...I never told her how shit scared I was though.... I was packing my pants the whole way... bloody lucky really.

[Maha]

"Look mum its a girl" - I assume the little person meant me and not my bike:bleh:


I get that all the time....:whistle:

[Busy]

I've had "My dads bike is faster than yours, cause it's got two pipes!"

Also:
little boy: Do you go fast?
me: no, I just putt along
little boy: dad goes fast
his mum pulls him away, but not before saying: but mum drives faster

[Skyryder]

Hope you informed him that that's how V-twins are supposed to be and it's Harley Ferguson that's got it wrong...

[Lteejay]

Was just getting off my bike in a carpark at the local park and saw some kids hanging around the van next door. Had only been riding for a little while and remember thinking I bet the kids will think my bike is cool. Its funny how kids can bringing you crashing down to earth - one kid proceeds to tells his mate that he thinks the 'Ghost Riders' Bike (which had just come out) would go faster. Pop goes my big head :laugh:

[Tank]

Not kids commenting - but workmates.

First person comes up to my office - nice bike Chris.

Another comes up - cool bike

And later another - that bike really suits you.

In all 8 people came in and commented on the bike.

By this stage Im wondering what the hell is going on - so I head down to the carpark under the building with the last person - she goes - that is such an awesome bike - you have to take me for a ride.

me - umm thats not mine (some git had come in on a nice Harley) - mines over there (a GN250).

She start pisses her self laughing and goes "but thats a girls bike."

[Finn]

I offered with a huge grin on my face (she is daammmm hot)

Was she as hot as Sweet Sophie?

#2 Son has said more than once:
"Your bike sucks. You should've bought a proper bike, like a Harley."

I'd reply, "Well, your car sucks!", but he'd just agree with me.

[avgas]

my nephew only knows me as StewMotabike, not uncle Stew, Stew....or anything else.
Just StewMotabike, infact mention Motorbike to him and he instantly says "StewMotorbike?"
I am more important to him than Santa as i visit about 5 times a year always with a $2 toy, most of the time on the bike (his jungle gym).
Makes me feel pretty cool.
He looks funny as in my boots helmet and gloves

Had to pick up my friends kids from school (8 & 10) his wife had the car or something... so we decided to go pick them up on the two bikes... all the other kids were jealous and asking for rides too. Made their day and most likely talk about it for weeks...

[The Lone Rider]

On the way home from picking up some first run CKCG clothing, while waiting at the lights I hear someone chatting away. I looked to my left and it was a girl about 10 or 11 with the window down trying to talk to me. Noticing Ive noticed her she just simply says "Nice ride" and smiles. Then when the lights change she says "Bye!"

[Delerium]

When I was 5 or 6 and at a camping ground with my parents a motorcycle club turned up and one of them had a trike. I promptly said, look dad, that motorbikes got training wheels!

[Cajun]

i get some rather interesting comments on the yellow thing, espically if am in the gear.

Usually something like 'thats bright, by there parents', and the kids often just like it since it is so bright, and colourful to them.
Rather lour air horn helps also.

[vifferman]

I find it sad that small kids are generally quite fascinated by bikes, but it only lasts a few years then they've been indoctrinated to think they're evil.

There's nothing like following a carload of small kids, all craning their necks trying to see your bike, then waving at them and seeing their excitement.

[steveb64]

Had quite a few kids (big and small) go "Cool bike" to me with respect to the Duc - but the BEST reaction I got was on my way back from a Cold Kiwi one year ('85 or so) - a mate had won a spot prize of a sodding great toy bear - and he was two up, with a full load of gear on - so he asked me if I could take it back (to Kaikohe) for him? "Sure". So we wrapped it in some plastic we managed to scrounge from somewhere, and strapped it onto the pack-rack, facing backwards... with a beer can strategically held in one paw... and off we went...

Heh heh - every car that we passed with kids in it erupted! Kids waving and pointing - my mates were just about pissing themselves watching the reactions (kids excited - parents trying to ignore bikes blasting past)... trouble was - I didn't get to see any of it, 'cos it all happened AFTER I'd gone past... :( ...well, at least until the motorway - when a few cars would creep past in the other lane - kids waving and pointing! :rockon: I think it was the mixture of cute bear, and big black noisy GSX11 that messed with the parents heads tho... :Pokey:

[MisterD]

I think most scooterists have had the experience of finding a little kid sat on their scoot looking for where to put the $ coin...

Most annoying is old codgers that come up and say "That's nice, I used to own a vespa in the 60's...":bash:

[jrandom]

retard: "hey mate would you like my card"

me: "why's that"

retard: "i sell wheelchairs and if you ride like i just saw you youll need one"

You know what's funny?

After all this hassle you receive for riding like a complete twat (which, to all accounts, you do), I wouldn't be at all surprised if the biker gods decided to be particularly perverse and ensure that you never even get grazed.

Which would be nice.

...

My favourite comment from a child on my bike(s) is more of a question.

"Does it go fast?"

"Yes, of course."

"But does it go really, really fast?"

*jrandom bends down, looks child in the eye with a somber gaze*

"It goes faster than anything."

*Fifteen years or so later, a new customer walks into a bike shop clutching his 6L...*

:D

[Scouse]

Yep had this little kid called markauckland come up to me once and little markauckland said "wow thats a cool looking bike mister where are Triumps made then"?

[Dave-]

rocked up at the lights yesturday and this wee tubby kid watched me pull up in the car beside, i looked at him and nodded, he nodded back :)

did the same thing with a cop today actually...

then a few weeks back I was sitting behind this mini van, 3 kids started all gawking out the back so I started rolling side to side and at the lights doing silly things like playing air guitar or the YMCA thing, they were cracking up....ahh kids are great

POOSE!

[Jerms]

Best for me was just before heading off on a ride with a bike club. All these beautiful machines lined up along the street...we all climb on our bikes to head off and these kids come running up to me...

"We like yours the best...it looks all classic like..." Oh, how I love my little 250...and how all the other club riders hate the little white beasty!!! :wari: :wari:
