Myths or truths?

[Headbanger]

Still too subtle me thinks.

try this

KB Wave=Giant pisstake.

OH! and by the way... the REAL reason Tank is my hero is because of his profile pic...

Yeah, classic!


BTW, I did in fact catch the sarcasm. Anyone on KB for a long time knows the Wave/Nod thread has been overdone but "74 knuckle" only joined recently.

See tanks post... notice the sarcasm dripping from each word, now see my post... see its full of sarcasm to 'back up' Tanks sarcasm...?.

It was noted hence the hint about the merged waving thread. I see you missed that. Mods seem slow on the uptake these days.

How many Hero parades have you been to? I hear they wave too.

Hmm... yeah... ok - sure.

And to date, I havent been to any Hero parades... although I wouldnt mind seeing one some day. Im sure that they do wave... and they probably recognise sarcasm too

Are tassles compulsury?

Are tassles compulsury?

Depends on what kind of bike you ride...

In a perfect world everyone would proudly fly tassels with no need to make them for compulsory......

Thought I'd open an old can of worms to see whether it's truth or dying myth. I seem to hear on quite a frequent basis that HOG riders only acknowledge other hog riders. I've been ridin for over twenty years and up until 8 months ago I only ever rode British or japa, yet Irode amongst a heap of hogs all having no problem riding with me. Now I ride my own HOG and I certainly acknowledge every other rider I encounter. In fact if the truth is to be Known I Quite often get ignored by sport bike riders. So is this a myth, or is it a projection to someone elses inadequacies?

To clear up ANOTHER myth, here ya go:

Thank you for the information, something that I was unaware of, and yes perhaps I should of stated with more clarity that I meant Harley Davidson Riders My apologies if this has been taken out of context, with my oversight in wording.

So you're saying tassles are bikecentric?
What, in your opion. is the RIGHT kind of bike?

I do see advantages in having tassles. For example-handle bar tassles can be used as fly swats.

I got waves from Harleys twice on the way down to Paeroa...

They must have been fooled by the front of my Suzuki... hahaha

[R1madness]

I just got back into riding...have a Harley...to date no ones waved or otherwise.

nice bike, ride by the shop and introduce yourself or give a wave as you ride past, one of us will prob see ya and give ya a wave. There are the odd group of hd guys that call in for social chat/meetup 4 ride type thing on a sunday afternoon. always happy to get phone numbers of others looking to join them on a ride.

I find HOGS wave more often than other riders (even if i'm on the GN250). I'd agree that sportsbike riders wave the least. Maybe its an age thing.

Nobody but absolutely nobody waves in Kyrgyzstan....ever.

How do you recognise a foreign driver in Kyrgyzstan? hes the one waving....

I wave and am getting a complex about the responses I get

[mdnzz]

I find ya wear a full face shoei helmet and harley owners don't wave back and sprots look at ya wierd like.
Though had a sprot owner wave to me in a corner up Godley Head yesterday, had to wave back of course.
But whats a wave worth , bugga all really so why not, if they wave back all good if not stuff em.
