Now thats how you win over the publics heart. Pelvic thrusts for everyone!

No one thought Elvis was a thug :laughing:
are you serious? I wanna try that, are you guys serious or not? that would be really fun to stand up and do a pelvic thrust. wow thatd be fun. haha
You could always just moon them, and if you're lucky and they're in the spirit of things, you might see them moon you back.

I didn't wave, but I did nod, which I've had people do to me instead of wave. He didn't reciprocate, but just watched me ride by slowly turning his head to follow me until I passed him.

Is that normal? Should I NOT acknowledge motorcycle cops?
Excerpt from my blog: "He [Richmond County Motorcycycle Cop] eventually made it up to me. I waved to him before he pulled alongside me and then I looked over and he had a smile and gave me a wave before he continued on. Pretty cool cop, I don't even have tags on my bike since I'm waiting up to 90 days for my custom tag to be mailed in. So if he wanted to pull me over to harass me, he could of done it."

I wave at moto-cops, regular cops, ambulances, and fire trucks ;p. All of them get my respect for what they do.

Heck, I wave at every other biker I see! To date, about half to 3/4 have waved back. Most that don't are on other cruisers, or are pretty obviously not yet comfortable enough to wave back. The only one that has pissed me off so far was a guy who was on a sportbike, started to wave, then stopped, shook his head, and rode on...

Ok now I'm laughing at myself for being a crazy donkey. I read your initial post wrong. I thought you said people naked on sportbikes! :oops: I wave at everyone..unless they're naked and then I point and laugh. ;)
