Easy Peasy. And with "KB" you could do one letter per hand!

"Bitches" might be more of a challenge... the one figer salute maybe. I know it's phallic ... so it might appeal - it might not.

What's the hand signal for:
"Oh! I say, you cad, you have just pulled out right in front of me causing me substantial consternation!"?

No idea - Car drivers never do that to me. Tui!

Actually, is there any consensus for "watch out there is a cop ahead - beware of u-turning vehicle"????

I know of 3 - twirly finger in the air, a quack quack hand motion or flash of the lights (which can be easily missed on some bikes).

Most times i get a blank stare back. Well it could be the dark visor.....

I have already , in another thread, provided the definitive solution to this issue.

See this post (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=1743279&postcount=28) for the complete, effective and unarguable answer

Wow!~ That's a great idea.

Can't believe no one's ever thought of that before.

How 'bout something along these lines

I think standing up and thrusting could mean "I want to hump that slut back there...."

I have been regularly using the showstopper.
Have only had one guy slapping his tank in laughter.

That looks great. Bit of a shocker, but I don't mind...

I like people who know what they want...

Would be a great idea - except my gloves won't allow me to move my pinky and ringfinger independently.


The Ave Caesar salute is quite good to. A low nod with the head while raising the left arm with the palm facing towards yourself.

A cunning bike-oriented system of nautical-style flags sounds like a great plan. There's already a good one you can use to warn other riders about upcoming encounters with The Ministry Of Bacon, helpfully enough called Uniform.

I guess I'm not so sure about some of the other ones though.

Perfect!

It honors history, stems back over time, is simple yet says a lot!

Use it everday :)
