    Unhappy Upper class riders

    Whats with the new breed off riders of today. Because you are on a old bike they look down on ya to me its not how it looks or how new it is its that you are on the road . so give a wave or nod to all as they might pick ya up one day

    Agree with ya on that mate. All bikers deserve a nod or wave no matter if they are on a GN or an MV Augusta.

    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    I ride a really old bike and will wave/nod at all riders...... too bad if they do not like it

    is it a tad strange tho? cage drivers dont wave at each other as they go by..

    im bad I just give a small nod, im more interested in riding than waving, unless its someone i know....

    personaly i couldnt care less if someone waves or not..

    Are you referring to your 92 bike as an "old bike" roflmao, quite modern and tidy compared to mine

    A small nod/waves is good, yes its all about injoying your ride, i had a bad exsperance at a locel bike meet where i was with a mate of mine who owned a ducati as he was a good friend he parked with us jap riders, he was aproched by Ducati owners club and told to come and park with them as they wernt parked by any jap bikes, thank god my mate thought his bike as a bike and not a ducati

    I'm sorry to say there's nothing new there bladez. When I bought my first old dunger (and it meant a lot to me) there were quite a few guys in the club I was in who didn't want my mate and i on club runs. Fortunately the "good" older guys stuck up for us impoverished young ones and made us welcome. Bike riders are bike riders and we ride what we can afford/want as the case may be.
