Had a motorcycling first today

Everywhere I go on the vrod everyone waves back, the xb 50ish percent, the cr very rarely

i always wave no matter what. there is no reason for someone to flip you the bird. but it is just a lack of common courtesy as well. I drive tractor trailer and common courtesy is dead there to. barely any drivers flash there lights when it is clear to come over or return a flush of there 4 ways or marker lights to say thanks if u flash ur lights.

The adv riders/ all weather riders always seem to be happy and acknowledge all riders. What is obvious is that on sunny summer days the Harley (not all) posers are in full force with the bananas and **** crap attitude. I don't get what they are so mad about, local bar run out of beer?
I love riding and I enjoy anything on 2 wheels. I would go way out of my way to help a fellow rider and I don't feel that way about many I see on the road.

It is possible the guy has been watching SOA too often and he had mistaken you for a Mayan member ?!

He probably thought he was flipping off a Japanese sport bike.

I've gotten a few "F You" smirks and then just before they pass a look down on the "Buell" on my tank. I'm thinking that my bike and SHOEI helmet make it seem like a little crotchrocket until they get closer...

 

[DrogeN Omen]

never wave to a cruiser rider. all Harley riders hate Buell's unless they actually own one.

all Ricer Burner Jap bike riders hate Buell's unless they own one.

really dont understand what their deal is.

i get sh*t for my bike all the time from the Jap guys, calling it a Tractor, Air compressor, oversized lawn mower...

even pics and specs i have posted for the EBR 1190 RX they said "once a Hardley always a Hardley" or "a tractor by any other name is still a tractor"...

lol
