While on lunch, had a strange (to me) conversation with a passerby. I'm sitting down and eating my lunch outside the cafe I stopped at, and a guy comes up to me. Here is the conversation he started:

HIM: Is that your Harley?
ME: Yes, it is. (2013 Street Glide, for reference)
HIM: Tell me, is that considered the flat top?
ME: Uh...I have no idea what you're asking.
HIM:Oh, ok. (walks away)

Am I missing something here?

 

YOU: What did you mean by Flat top?


Since that didn't happen we will never know......

Maybe he watched the recent Harley and the Davidson's series and meant to ask you if it was a Flathead?

 

He wanted to sex you but didn't know any Harley speak. Freaked and left.

Back home he's saying to himself, "Is that considered a Flat Top???? Oh man.... I'm so stupid!!!!! So, so Stupid!!!!!"

 

Lol, I mean, I did say "I have no idea what you're asking" in the most inquisitive and curious tone. I guess he didn't infer it that way though, and instead of explaining what he meant, he just walked away, haha.

I was friendly enough with him, I guess he just didn't care to stick around. I guess saying something like, "I am not sure what you mean by that, can you explain?" or "What do you mean by flat top" would have solicited further banter with the poor fellow.

 

Maybe he changed topic and was asking about your haircut. (;

 

There is a flat top windshield for the street glide. That might have been what he was asking about.

 

He probably meant Pan Head.

 

I would have probably just said no.

 

I think he was guessing at a name and you caught him and called him out on it.
Realising he goofed he walked away.

 

...... and an entertaining answer could'a been
' why yes.... yes it is.... you sure seem to know your Harleys ..... did you know that this version of the 'FT' makes 150 hp outta the box ?'
