Right then chaps and chapess's,

Simple one........do you nod to other bikers?

It will be interesting to see.....

Chars then, The Piston Vlog.
 
I used to make a thing of it but these days I'm more concentrating on staying alive than nodding.

I'd say I nod 80% of the time.
 
I wave, i stick out my leg by overtaking, i nod, i salute etc.. etc.. etc...

Depends on the situation, but i always greet!

Love this! We Brits need to up our game. Others are taking it to a whole other level and all we do is ever so slightly move our head. I think I am going to have to adopt this approach going forward!
 
Not all the time. Almost every rider I see on scooters, sports tourers and choppers never nod back so heheh. If I get one, I always return it.

When on a straight road or when it is safe to do so we wave.
Just the most common thing to do here, and in other parts of Europe.

When you overtake some one (that is passing on the left of the UK-ers ;) ) on the highway/speedway/dualcarriageway you stick out your right leg. Most riders do a small wave or just lift their left arm a bit (salute) when they are being overtaken.

Corners or other moments you need both hands on the steering wheel it is either a nod or couple of left-hand fingers sticking up.
Standing still at traffic light or just speeding from stillstand is also most nod.



This is for me personal, some riders only nod, some only wave.

The left leg you do see a lot, seem as the nod and waves.
 
I've had loads of nod backs from scoots lately, almost make a video from it, be a bit dull though...

Your bike has a steering wheel!? I've got to see this! :eek:

;):p
 
In the States, the wave is the norm. Usually just a "Hello" kind of wave. I usually do the "peace" two fingers, but that probably wouldn't work out in Britain, as it might be mistaken for the other 2 finger salute. If both of my arms are busy controlling the bike, I'll nod my head. I wave at anyone on a two-wheel machine, barring bicycles, of course.
