Comments on B O B's

[dragnusa]

So as we're nearing the end of the build off and more of us doing test rides. I thought it would be cool to share some of the comments we are getting from friends and the general public.
While on my test ride the other day I had a few stares and a few comments on it. Two of my favorite one's was "what brand of bike is that? " and "That thing looks just pure evil"

Anybody ever heard this one?
"What's that for?" says some Maroon, pointing at a doodad....

Carl.

My neighbor keeps borrowing mine to go ride with his kids. That I take as a compliment!

 

[Frankie plekhand]

I get a lot of "is that yours?"

Frank

 

[Glen]

"Is that yours?"... ha ha, yeah, I get that too. And "did you build that?" is a common one. When out on Glenderson once, I got "my, that's long" from an older lady. So I smiled and said "yes, I prefer long ones. I find them easier to handle".

Glen.

Glen I almost spit soda out my nose from that.

 

[jasper87]

Ive gotten a lot of "why are the handlebars so low"

 

[raggedjim]

"I saw one of those at Walmart"...

 

[whitefiretiger]

[Funkme]

"I saw one of those at Walmart"...

Oh no RJ what are you building???

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Bean and I got a "What do you call that" last year from an older lady while we were out riding our BO Bikes... Our reply with a straight face: "A bike"

I had a guy looking at Drag King last weekend that was telling me how when he was a kid, he 'had one like that', but it seemed that the tank was a little different.

 

[Pookie42]

I had someone tell me "I wouldn't do that to my bike" I just smiled & cruised away...

You should trade that in for a mull-ped.

Are your forks on backwards?

Luke.

I often get "you should put a motor on it" I have five bikes and four are electric motors.

 

[raggedjim]

Well, my fork is made from the rear swingarm of a mountain bike, so I guess it is technically backwards!

Trying to explain the propane tank on my Flat-Tracker has been awkward....one guy said, "How fast does that make it go?" I said,,,well, still only as fast as I can peddle it without catching my rear on fire......! "It is just an added feature!" "the kids love it!" Several have followed me around while test riding it! I have said , "It makes me peddle faster...especially in a cross-wind!"
