Nice story. It sure is fun to have people surprise you like that. I always find it great to have that one person who, normally, you would never guess in a million years would come and approach you about your bike.
I had a VERY sharp dressed suit/tie/briefcase kinda guy (driving a jag or whatever it was) come up to me and say 'nice harley'. I then corrected him that it was actually a Honda. He about fell over and couldnt believe it wasnt a HD product. Stood there and had a nice chat about the bike and he was on his way. Seemed like the kinda guy that his career took over his life and he was now just realizing that and wanted to have a little 'fun'. Wonder if he ever made it to the dealership
