I got a wave from a city cop on a RK... I waved back because I just never know if that same cop might be in my mirror someday.

I'll pretty much wave at anyone on 2 wheels, even bicycles, the kids get a kick out of it.

I agree with the distinguised individual above.

Anyone on two wheels, to me it like saying Good Luck.

I get a kick out of waving to little kids being walked around by their parents. I will slow way down if they are looking and wave real low to the kid and they just crack up. You can sometimes see them jump up and down. Sure am glad my kid is grown up now.

There was a great thread (now classic) that dealt with the highly controversial topic of waving during daylight hours.

Now the question of waving after dark has been raised.

Perhaps this thread should be moved to the Religion-Politics arena...It's starting to smell alot like a religious debate.

In the mean time, I will add my few nuggets to the ever growing, heaping pile of steaming verbiage. Look, there is some corn and a peanut.

I have looked it up in Dave's Encyclopedia of motorcycle etiquette. Chapter 9 to wave or not to wave, section B, night time waving.

"Waving at night is an approved method of motorcycle cool dude communication only if one or more of the following criteria are met or exceeded: There are chicks in revealing clothing involved, there is sufficient lighting to show your H-D tank logo or the H-D tank logo on the bike you are waving at, You are sure beyond a Shadow of a doubt that the bike you are contemplating waving at can see you, is a H-D and is making eye contact...."

Just got back from my first trip to Maui. Rented from the local HD and went for a spin. Along with the traditional down-low tow fingered and open palm I now have to add the Hawaiian "Hang Loose" wave (done in a traditional down-low type wave) to my repertoire. It accounted for about half of the waves sent my way.

Very cool, the hang loose wave.

But what about guys like me who have not gone to Hawaii ?

I do not have the required qualifications to use the hang loose.

I like how you used the corn for texture...

Just put on a very VISIBLE Hawaiian shirt next time you ride and you'll be qualified.

waving is for posers

P 0 P E Y E · 09-27-2006, 11:41 PM

Poser, poser at the mall.

Who's the fairest one of them all.

Is it the person in head to toe leather?

Is it the one who rides in any weather?

Is it the vesper rider with penny loafers and sweater on his shoulders?

No, it's the guy who won't wave cause he is TFC.

TFC= too flogging cool
