Are you a nod snob

[ZX6Rich]

Ok you all know what I mean here the nod of "yes you are also a cool motorized bicycle rider" the question is do you give that warm feeling of receiving a nod to the spotty 16y/o on his step through twist and go?

To define we are talking speedfights etc, CBR125 and Derbi dirtbikes are not applicable here just talking about the step through hairdryers

No gears, no safety gear, no nod

[Mervin]

No gears, no safety gear, no nod

seems reasonable funky

but they may one day see sense,
I saw some of the finest riders i know the other day riding in shirt sleeves,
The French Gendarmes, every time i see em i think f**king fine example they are

[daily_insanity]

No gears, no safety gear, no nod

Well that installs confidence in those of us who are on a starter bike and who want to work upwards!! nice to know I am welcome into this world
I am starting on a step through no geared hair dryer, albiet a dead one at the mo, But I am already looking into a geared one!! If you see a aprilia habana with a pink helmet wearing lass please don't ignore...in the words of kids..I wana be like you one day!!

[billinom8s]

If you're wearing at least helmet, gloves and jacket and decent trousers/jeansthey all get a nod from me.

Good shout Funky. Helmet, proper jacket, boots, gloves and at least Jeans and they get a nod from me. Nobbers wearing trainers, shorts and a t-shirt I've got no time for!

[billinom8s]

don't you find though that alot of them don't nod because they don't know about the 'nodding' thing. to them the bike is just a step up from a bicycle and a step down from a chavvy corsa.

the ones that do nod you know understand a bit more than the fact it's just a bike - they will always get a nod from me.

a still nod at harley riders, i know they won't return it but i also know it winds them up

[Smiler]

I seem to get a LOT more nods if I'm on the affair bike, ha ha ha....dozy clots, dont they realise I ride Hornet too!!!!!

[steve-d]

I still nod from the car

[sevenofninecelica]

Wonder who nods to them whilst out walking or is that tourette's syndrome (fcuk off)

I do nod back on the bike to peeps who Nod, never done it to a scooterist tho or should I say sowing machine.

[Mike Hayward]

No gears, no safety gear, no nod

+1 on that!

Ad the majority of kids on the twist and goes in Plymouth A) don't wear the right gear B) ride like tit's giving us true bikers a bad name and C) I get rage when i see em parked up with their helmets perched on top of there heads

Maybe because when i was 16 i had a ZR50s proper bike with gears n everything lol



and was respectful to others and ok had a few silly moments but nothing like i see these days!

[Mike Hayward]

oh and my 125 after was a far cry from the honda cbr125 and aprilla's out there

[samZxR]

i nod to most bikers who wear a decent gear, helmet, jacket and jeans at least.. but never nod to those on mopeds and the 50cc dirt bikes my first days on the bike i realiesed that they never nod back so i only nod to the proper bikers now

[Milky]

those 50cc dirt bikes can get over drain covers though ay?
