I nod or raise left hand to mainly sporbike riders and the occasional motard down the Go road. I wait for cruiser riders to nod/wave first then return the gesture. Given up nodding to trailies as I've never gotten a nod back.

I will continue to nod or lift a hand in acknowledgement and know that some will come back and others get missed/ignored.........I prefer to think they were just missed

me
I started out (a long time ago)
waving to anything with 2 wheels
and experience tells me........
'Hardly' riders never wave...so they can get 'not nodded'
cruisers scooter and dirts I nod to
and about ½ reply (not bad)
and I get a response from most Sporties..... cool!
so I still wave!
GOTTA LUV the 12R!!

Sounds like trail bike riders are quite a rude bunch.

If you happen to be riding in the outer west of sydney and you see a little blue yamaha traily wishing it was a kwaka sports bike don't be shy, give him a nod... He's not like the others, he just wants to be a real bike!

Heh. Scooter girls. I had a bunch of scooter chicks on the side of the road the other day, as I rode past they were waving/acting all sexy obviously thinking I was a guy. As I got closer I lifted my visor and glared. They didn't wave no more :lol:

I think people in general have become a bunch of rude carnts....

Am thinking about chucking a u-turn and using a big stick to sort people out who don't return nods!

i agree..i often miss a wave or nod then think "fark u idiot, he could b the
1 picking ur bike up off u"....if there on 2 wheels i try to nod or wave or
gesture (thumbs up mostly)..but sumtimes watching traffic is more important

I just nod to everyone, never had a dirt bike rider return the nod.... when I'm riding my Harley I still nod to sportbike riders but the ignorant pricks never nod back :lol: same goes when I'm riding my R6, most but not all Harley riders don't nod back....

I don't really care what anyone rides, as long as you ride.....
