I was out for a ride today and as I was riding through some slow moving traffic. I saw a guy on a supersport headed my way. His first gesture was to hold his clutch hand (closest to me) up in the air towards 1 or 2 o'clock. Next he crouched in and held the same hand as close to the ground as he could get. What was that about? Did he want me to wheelie? Is it the cool new sportbiker wave? Was he just stretching?![]()
sounds weird.

Maybe an exaggerated "slow the fuck down" wave because there are cops up ahead?

either that or he should have bought a short-bus instead of the super-sport

Hilarious!!
Duct tape is like "The Force". It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
New type of stunt? Sounds too aggressive for me....
Sportbike riders don't wave.

Thanks for the welcome! I've been lurking here for a while. I'm from Medford, MA (little bit north of Boston) and ride a baby Ninja. Nice forum you have here, it's nice to have a source to keep on top of local mc news.
I never figured out what the guys gestures meant. Oh well.
