Nah... cant do that around here... if you honk at someone they go on the defensive right away and give you the middle finger even if you just wanted to say hi. :confused:

When driving behind sports bikers and "hog" riders (what's the name for them), I've observed many different behaviors. The hog riders usually just stick their left arm out with ther hand flat. They never do this to the sports bike riders. The sports bike riders usually just do a head not; haven't seem them to a hand wave.

Aint that cool though... :D

You try greeting another driver in a car and they'll probably want to run you off the road. :confused:

I get greeted by Nissan Z owners quite a bit in my 350Z. I've had some drivers of older Z's go out of their way to get next to me, honk, and give me the thumbs up. A lot of the male Z owners usually give a wave from the steering wheel with the thumb still attached.
ok, this guy wants us to know that he has a 350Z


If I had a Z I would tell everybody too!

If you REALLY want to give the other a HUGE hello, you stick one arm out horizontally in front of you with the elbow bent at 90 degrees (you can make a fist with this hand). Then you take your other hand and come up underneither it with your middle finger up and then in an upward motion you hit the inside of your second hand elbow across the forearm of your first hand (note: this is hard to do while moving)

LMAO hahah

Please do Not do this unless you want to,

A;get in an accident
B;get either beaten up,or Worse!

The proper way to wave to other bikers who are approaching you quickly, is to reach out your arm, grab onto his, and hold on tight!

Want a good laugh?

When driving in a car, honk at random pedestrians and have the front passenger wave at them. Watch how many wave back before realizing they don't know the motorist or passenger. Nearly everyone will instinctively raise their hand, then quickly touch their hair to avoid embarrassment.

Hi-larious.
