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

[Theatre]

I always use my right hand to wave, on a 2 stroke theres hardly any engine braking and you want the left hand where it is incase something goes wrong

[peasea]

yep, kids love it....

"woooow, cool mooootobike Mr!"
"can you do a wheelieee?"

*why yes, yes i can*

"hey, the motorbike man is gonna do a wheeeeelieeeee!!!!"

Well, when it comes to the 'wheelie' question I just have to point to the sticker on the tank and say "it's not how fast you go, it's how cool you look".

Kids buy it every time, shame about the adults tho.........

I don't care, mock me if you will, I still love my bike, a 17 y/o HD. I do heaps of k's on it and I've got heaps of appointments tomorrow, to which I'm gonna ride.

Life is good.
