Waving - the neverending saga (multiple threads merged into one)

[MadDuck]

The vibrations on the bike are so intense that they cant let go till the get off the damn thing....eh MadDuck?.....:

Geez there ya go making assumptions again .

Why would a girl take her hands off the biggest vibrator made by man to wave at some funny sprotsbike?

[pixc]

Here is my solution. I will attach a waving device so as to not offend anybody should I not wave...for what ever reason. Would this count as a 'wave'?

[Crisis management]

Can I borrow a Harley so I don't have to wave to everyone?


I'm absolutely knackered from putting on ATGATT, dragging the Kaboom out of the shed in this heat, riding 300 metres to the dairy, waving, nodding and farting in the direction of any two wheeled contraption, stopping and consoling the bloody minibike rider I didn't see / wave too, as I was avoiding a B train intent on sharing my lane, buying the milk, attaching it with the approved LTNZ straps to the proper carrier taking care to not disturb the CoG of the bike and in any way cause the tyre pressures to vary by more than 2 psi.....then repeating the whole show to get back home.

God, you wonder why we don't wave????


I'm getting the trail bike out and riding naked round the section in protest.

Y'know, what we really need is a special 'KB Wave', so that we can recognise each other on the road.

Also, did you know that Harleys can't countersteer? It's cos of physics.

The world's most traveled motorcycle is a Harley.
Interviewing the riders next month.

really? I thought it would have been one of the bikes from the two trips Ewan Mcgregor did.......either way as I said I LIKE harleys, i'm a slut really I like all styles of bike, just having a dig at the probable general use of most of them

[Big Dave]

camaraderie

[b1kerb0b]

This is why harley riders don't wave

My better half's just commented that that's *really* falling off... the bike stayed mostly up?

The Harley-Davidson Motorcycle is the World's Most Traveled Motor Vehicle

In a historic world first, Kay and Peter Forwood’s Harley-Davidson motorcycle has traveled to more countries than any other motor vehicle in the world.

Their Harley-Davidson motorcycle - a 1994 Electra Glide Classic (vehicle number 1HD1DJL14RY502784), has ventured through every internationally recognised country of the world. Many machines have circumnavigated the globe as aeroplanes, boats, cars and motorcycles and a few individual machines have visited more than half the world's countries, but only this Harley-Davidson has been to every internationally recognised country.

The World's Most Traveled Motorcycle has visited over 357 countries, states, territories, isolated parcels, islands, atolls and disputed territories.

The Electra Glide Classic was purchased new in 1994 and it has now been ridden a total of 515,000 km both in Australia and around the world. 490,000 km were recorded outside of Australia on the motorcycles journey across the world.

Kay and Peter’s journey spans some 12 years, beginning in Australia on the 3rd of February 1996 and still continues today. Details of the journey around the world are meticulously recorded at http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/forwood/ The Web site profiles their journey with descriptions, images and maps of all 357 countries, states or territories they visited. For the Harley-Davidson enthusiast it is a site that records a unique couple who truly “Live the Dream”.

The pics at the top of the page prove why.....
Assuming that guy really is a Harley rider?
He may have just got off a GSXR ....

[Okey Dokey]

Whoa, waving. Deja vu; is it Groundhog Day? I thought that was in February.

Maybe every day can be Groundhog Day on kb?

Y'know, what we really need is a special 'KB Wave', so that we can recognise each other on the road.

I rock the left-hand salute type wave most of the time, but sometimes if I'm feeling bad-ass enough I like to change it up a little.

In all seriousness however, with me being only a newbie to the world of biking I have really enjoyed the comradeship between riders that I've experienced so far. It's like someone else out there who shares your joy of having a great ride and understands the dangers and frustrations experienced. I'll even go as far as to pull up next to another biker at the lights, open the lid and say gidday.

[pritch]

And I thought we're all one big happy biker family....????

Not really.
Harley riders don't wave to anyone.
Ducati riders only wave to BMW riders.
BMW riders only wave to God.

Hey guys just make sure you don't give up on waving to guys out there on "customs" - It's get mighty lonely out there on the road on my Bellagio...

I'm quite tired of people asking "what sort of harley is that?".

Oh well. Wave on guys & gals

we will wave to you!
cant believe they ask that, for a start the v twin is properly mounted so both cylinders receive equal air cooling even if it is perceived as unfashionable!

i was all lusty over the bellagio on offer for test rides at the last rattly tappet rally, so lusty i declined a ride just in case- there was no management supervision on the credit card that weekend!

Victory Vision has a tip over mitigation system. If you low speed drop it - it lands on the outriggers and minimises damage.

[CBR97]

I dont wave at Harley's,
It would be like waving at someone on a tractor.

Did you know that 95 percent of all Harley's ever built are still on the road today?????

THE REST MADE IT HOME.





But getting back to Harley riders not waving back,

WHO GIVES A SHIT .
Its because they are so scared of the speed that they cant let go to wave back.
