    I accidentally nodded to a scooter rider this morning. Thought it was a 'real' bike until it was too late.

    nah, it just confirmed how sad some of the people here are. So a thread has been done before - so what? If things could only be said once, the KB messageboards would die forever.
    Don't blame me, I voted Green.

    I like to do the Mexican Wave every time I pass another bike.

    Occasionally get one started going down the motorway at rush hour.

    "I'm crashing" must be different for Honda Riders

    It's a known fact ... Suzuki riders ARE different, so that should not come as a supprise ...

    Made myself laugh so much the other day and was instantly the biggest dick in the world.. Was in my cage (yes yes, wrong place to be I know) following another bike. A rider coming towards us waved. And without thinking my hand was up waving in response, from my car. Oh fuck - oh the shame. My mate in the passenger seat (also a biker) was crying with laughter, and so was I. It's still making me laugh now. Queen of eggs right here, and FAR too honest.

    Thought I would just share that with you all, give someone else a laugh for the day - being a ba-hum-bug Tuesday and all.

    I thought the Honda rider's signal for crashing was a waving limp wrist ...

    I sold a Honda and bought a Suzuki ... I didn't notice any changes ('cept maybe I got more speeding tickets ... but then it was a 400 Honda single and a 650 Suzuki four ...)

    Best blonde moment I have ever had by far! And thankfully the biker was looking at the rider infront of me for the reaction, not me. Phew!

    Now see here. It's one thing to wave to scooter riders, but totally another to then admit your crimes against humanity on a public forum

    I don't own a car, and spend very little time in them. Consequently, I wave as an automatic reaction.

    There's no shame really, as I know I don't look to see if every driver is waving at me, unless I think I know the vehicle.

    So do you guys like to give each other parting wave or gesture to other motorcyclists when you go by?
    I've been here a little but a year and I still love the waving threads....I've prgressed in life.

    I only used to NOD, but now, some lucky peeps out there get the full on Genie wave......and Harleys....they get to see my tits!
