    Is the seat the flip-top model?. Enough of the toilet humour.

    At night, the flags will be supplemented by rockets.

    Surely people can identify such self evident solutions for themselves. Why do I always have to do the thinking.
    Oh no no that won't do at all. So 19th...er...17th century. The match would keep blowing out before the rocket lit. Get with the program Ix. Are we not modern hard edged bikers??

    Aldis lamps are the ideal solution.

    Set it up beside the radar detector, swivel stem so you can signal behind you - perfect.

    haha i was thinkin about that a while back i thought if everyone put there kb name in a pre determined colour on there screen or something, there will be a signwriter on here that could do everyone a deal for like $5 each you might only see a blur but you would see a bright sticker even if it were small

    It might even help pay for the server!

    Seen those out and about!

    Bit hard to see at full noise, but then again everythings a dirty blur for me at that speed. What with all the bugs I've tried and failed to wipe off the visor, the tears in my eyes from the air getting inside, the fact I can't see over the filthy screen because I'm too short and trying to keep my hair out of the wind to avoid tangles.

    Do they come in red/black?

    When you turn your bike on - does it return the favour?

    Mine does

    We could:

    a) Use morse code with our headlights as we approach another biker, if they code flash us back, we know that they are friendly visitors to our local patch.

    b) We could sign them in sign language asking whether they belong to a brotherhood of e-friends know as Kiwibiker, and if so, please sign back what is their login name.

    I just always assume that when out riding, the guy who lowsided into a ditch on his hysosung 250 trying to keep up with the guy in front must be a KB.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Make a cross with your forearms like on Aussie Deal Or No Deal - that'll sort the men from the boys

    The thing is that the wave needs to still be acceptable as a wave to someone who isn't a kiwibiker.
