I get gas mileage comments/questions more than anything. Or when I rode in 20degree weather people calling me crazy.
When I do get asked I just say "fast enough". When my friends or other motorcycle people I know ask I tell them 155spedo (which is probaby 70mph on my bike).

My standard answer is 'the speed limit'....frankly it's none of their business.

I had my GSX-R750 at a bike night once....went back to the bike and saw 2 cops standing there looking at it...I was like, great...gonna get done for the illegally mounted plate/exhaust/etc....they look up and say "Is this your bike?" and I'm like "Yeah...it is." One of them said "These things haul ASS!! How fast can you go on it?" I said "Maybe 60mph..down hill...with a tail wind." They both laughed and walked away.

I usually just tell the truth, which depends on what bike I'm currently riding.
I'll also pull wheelies for kids, depending on where I'm at. When I was a kid, getting a guy to do a wheelie for me would pretty much make my whole month.
