Good to see i'm not alone in the Karma syndrome.....thats why i'm not bother bout breaking down.....i have stopped to help plenty of times....at times i have stopped to make a call on the cell phone and had riders stop and ask..."you ok mate?"....and i have done the same......I also get heaps of people in cars even wave out or the old fingers up off the steering wheel type salute......most people are cool...just the minority i'm talking bout...you know you might come across this type once a month or so.....most riders that dont wave or nod are most probably shy, busy, ipod listeners or so, but then you get the odd prick..........i mean i actually had a rider one day lane split in front and then wave me up as if to say "come on up heaps of room." i thought that was rather nice of him......if the guy on the ducati does read this then heed the opinion that at least a nod would have bought about a different response.....but i dont think i got the wrong impression..some good stories are coming to light on this thread....loved the Karma at the BP with the Desoto.....lol..
