People's reaction when you answer the "What kind of bike is that?" question

I was just wondering what has been your experience when people ask you, "what kind of bike is that?"

What's your answer and what has been their responses?



Just curious...

I just start out telling them it was $1500 delivered brand new .
That normally shuts down the China crap attitude . Even my goldwing buddies are impressed by fit and finish . The fact that I bought one blows their minds .
I currently have 3 fellow riders waiting my mid summer review . As they say , if Rail can't kill it , it will be fine for me .

People were mostly blown away at the Brozz! And when I told them it was made in China and cost 1500 bucks brand new the response was "NO WAY". And like was said the next thing was where can I get one. Now the Bar Hog draws lots of attention, and most folks love it, when I told them it was built in China a few just kinda turned their nose up, another RUB said "AHH SHIT" and walked off and got on his 30K Harley Bagger! The two newbs at the dragon riding 600cc crotch rockets had NOTHING to say when I dusted their ass to the other end on that little 277cc twin. I don't care if you have a 1000hp bike if you don't know how to ride it, you will get DUSTED!!

I generally say, "It's a Qlink (or RX3 or TT250). It's made in China."

The response is always shock and positive.
