And I have stopped using the serach function. Each time I do and the result is a blank some clever fart still manages to find a thread from 1975 that had one of the words I used in my title on the 27 row in the second sentence (even if it was spelled with a c and not an s...)

Yeah, commenting on the same thread from 2 years ago ends up being criticised as a 'thread dredge'

and things can change over time, but there's gotta be a limit. Take for example the 3 threads in 2 weeks about the video of the drift ZX10R. What's the point in having 3 separate threads about the same thing running simultaneously?
Use the search function and if someone tells you there's already a thread on it, tell them you looked but couldn't find one. If they tell you to look harder next time, tell them to piss off

Fair enuf if you looked but if you're too much of a lazy prick to look....

Was riding from Coatesville/ Riverhead highway to Albany and this one Ducati 1098S rider gave me a thumb up!

oh that's just duc rider code, he was telling you his electrics are all good, a head nod means they are low on fuses, and furious waving (usually accompanied by a distinct lack of forward momentum) means it's fucked

Re the wave..tee hee hee..love how wave threads piss some people off so

Me? I only wave when I see someone I actually know or if I am waved at...most the time I'm just in my zone enjoying the fact that I don't have to interact with or worry about anyone else...ahhhhhh the bliss of the zone

Speaking of, I was riding all day waving to any motorcyclist I encountered today (Auckland) and only 3 riders nod/waved back!

Where's the love?

"I see you riding pass by without a nod or wave and I'm like, fuck you!"*

Ah the amazingly, wondeful ZONE...when you find yourself there, there is no other person in the world, just you, your bike and the road under your wheels.

It's all a long fluid motion of grace and beauty, gliding through corners....ahhhhhhh, my zone.
