Pony: I don't need a motorcyle. I need my airplane. You see I fly back and forth to Chicago and...

Pasty: No! You see you're thinking about it all wrong. A motorcyle is more than just a 2-wheeled motor bike. It's a transportation framework. You can easily change and augment it. You can add wings and rudders. A bigger fuel tank. A bigger engine! More storage compartments. Even a side car for additional passengers. You see with a motorcyle you can do anything you can do with an airplane, and more. All you have to do is change your mindset and spend a bit more time and money and you can fly to Chicago on a motorcyle.

Pony: Yeah, or I can just keep my airplane.
