The iMac of scooters?

Post by JuliaGrace »

I just thought I'd share an amusing comment I received about the Buddy last night:

As I was preparing to leave the motorcycle lot where I park (for work), a motorcyclist who had his hulking green Triumph parked next to "Spike" started asking me questions about the bike (i.e. was it easy to ride, if I was happy with it, etc.) and commented about how sharp looking it was.

After a few minutes of discussion, he looks at it and says "you know know, that's kind of like the iMac of two-wheeled transportation"

Of all comments I've received so far, this was the most amusing to me.

Disclaimer: I'm not sure if this gentleman is a regular patron of this lot, or if he was one of the glassy-eyed Macworld fiends who are gathering across the street all week. Soooo, Macworld-induced euphoria could have been influencing his thought process :D

I am many miles away from SF and just getting over my Macworld euphoria!

And I think the "iMac of scooters" analogy is a pretty good one.
