    As it has been said before, I enjoy getting a nod, and normally I do, but alas sometimes it is not the case, but hey, that's life

    I generally wave to anyone be they on a 250 or a 1300

    Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.

    I wave to everybody.....I even find myself nodding to bikes while i'm driving my car.
    If someone doesn't wave back, I don't care cause that's not going to dampen my spirits when i'm out having fun on my bike.
    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

    Don't matter if they wave or not, I still look like a tit trying to get my knee down in a FXR doing 50 on a huge turn

    Guy in BRONZ Otago who only has use of one arm - can't remember which but the 'other' one is always in a sling, anyway HE seems to ride o.k., his handle-bars look kinda 'busy' to you and I.

    I'll wave to anybody; I'm not fussy - Harleys, Sports bikes, BMWs, scooters.

    I don't really give a shit whether you wave back or not - I'm still gonna have fun.

    if they don't wave back ... I don't expect everyone to be my mate. Same thing on the road.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I usually wave, smile or nod (depending on the circumstances) at pretty much everyone on two wheels..... It helps if they are males on racing (push) bikes and have a nice ass and well developed calves...... :love2: whaaaat?????

    and / or

    There their can be a few snobs out there. They're not KB members though, I'm sure. Right Guys??
    I wave at everything over 50cc, It's not that I wouldn't, it's just that I don't think some of the old dears who ride them would even see me waving
    :spudwave:


    Anyway, that's a great thing about riding, we all acknowledge each other, unlike some daft drivers who can't see past thier bonnet.

    Quite right! I have found there are a whole lot of snobs out there, normally they are the type that DON'T ride Harleys and DON'T come from the deep South!! :confused2

I really wouldnt worry about it. Just wave at everyone.
    well who can blame us, we passed you i think ( three of us a blue honda a r6 with a grumpy scot and a slow old nc30 honda minus fairings), anyways stopped and had a chat to the 749 owner, and a sit on it, and got to listen to its nice 2.5k+ exhaust, hmmm what to spend lotto on, anyways got most of my waves returned during our little trip today
    and i seem to be trhe only member on at this time/?? must go to bed

    I even waved to a KBer on a ZXR400 with a yellow helmet in my cage today, only to have him not see me :P But I'll probly do the same if I was in his shoe

    Maybe he worked for Motomail Felix
