Run a search, it's been done to death. the general consensus is we are too lazy to wave in any special way.

I ride around there quite often, but not until later in the day. Usually wave or at least nod to anyone on two wheels so we may well have exchanged greetings.

I know that the Harley boy's get some bad press about this, but most of the locals seem pretty good.

There is this old fuck on a BMW of somekind wearing a bright floro vest and speacialty open face BMW helmet that I see every day on my way home from work. He always looks at me and I wave but have yet to get anything back from him. Think I might try the guy in the vids pattented wave tomorrow. If that doesn't work it'll be the harley to sportsbike wave.

There's plenty of those fuckers on ST1100s too!

With you on that one E; Have felt retarded many times from waving to H/D riders.
I'm always quick to wave in return tho' - like a mexican wave (with pillion for added effect).

**DougieNZ** · 16th November 2006, 22:07

Hi All,

I have waved to many Harley riders too without any result. So I have learnt not to bother

I sometimes forget to wave/nod, and always feel like a right prat afterwards! So I apologise in advance if I forget!

I'll tell you who I ALWAYS wave to though, and that is those considerate car drivers who move over a bit to let you past. I always appreciate this.

If I rode a Canhardly (Not that I would ever even want to... they look like, sound like, handle like shit... but I still respect them being on 2 wheels) I would still wave and or nod... most down here do... there are the odd couple that don't but if they want to be like that ehh fuck em

me too and the truckies... many have let me pass I give them the thumbs up
