Agreed. I always like to respond, "well what do you mean?" I love it, because 99% of the time, the person asking this is not an enthusiast, so "fast" = "top speed" to them. Usually if they're asking, it's because they're prejudging me that I know a lot about cars or motorcycles based on what they're seeing me drive/ride. It's fun to watch the expressions on their face as they contemplate whether I honestly don't know what "fast" is or some other possibility.
At this point I usually explain the different kinds of fast.
Unless they're a douche. Then I just stare at them like I need them to explain "fast" to me, just to see what they say.
