I also like performance cars as much as bikes and I have a habit of nodding at them too…which gets some strange looks sometimes :D

As I recall, you get strange looks no matter what you are on or in... :D

I still acknowledge other 2 wheeled users - I've even been known to nod/wave at BMWs.

I've yet to pluck up courage to extend that to the faux Angels on HDs though.

I'll still nod to anyone/anything on 2 wheels, if there's a bunch of 'em I'll wave or waft a leg at them save me wobbling my head around :-)

I always nod, and to anyone on two wheels. If i'm working, I get nods back from all the deliveroo and Getir riders who did their CBT with me, and the local two-wheeled police always nod or wave if i've got my instructor vest on, but only about half of the bikers in Yorkshire nod back. When we were in France and Spain, the european 2 finger salute was reciprocated almost 100% of the time.

When I lived in South Wales, I once got a pretty smile and a girly wave from the blond woman rider of a BMW as I was parking my KTM on Cowbridge High St.


It was a police BMW!!!!!!!
