Sorry, I was referring to scooter. Some require a motorcycle endorsement and are considered, by law, to be motorcycles. The "booze mobiles" I was referring to are the scooters that don't require a license as most of the people who tend to ride them lost their licenses due to DUI's. Didn't explain my self very well.

That's ok my bad.I didn't realize there was a such thing as that.I thought everyone had to have an endorsment on thier license.Learn something every day.I've had a motorcycle endorsement on my license long before you had to test for it.Must be getting old lol.Be safe have fun.

It's all good. Here in NC, they have to be less than 50cc and not capible of more than 30mph on a flat, level surface and they do not need a license or insurance.

Is that your yellow lab? I got hooked on labs when I wound up with a rescue. I had her for 14 years when she passed away last Jan. at 18 years old. Best dog I have ever had.

I'm a real friendly guy.

As a matter of fact, this time of year I like to throw other riders a hand full of assorted candy goodness, instead of the wave.

It seems I have a lot of those stuck up snobs in my area. Quite a few don't seem to appreciate my friendly and generous gifts.

Damn stuck up posers !!!

My neice wants a miniature horse so bad. I thought about getting one for her. I am just not sure I want the trouble of a horse. I have owned horses before, although not miniature ones. I figured they are about as much upkeep as a full size. Well, except for the whole size thing.

i just NOD

Danthedawgfan · 11-07-2008, 10:04 PM

I'll throw a wave out there to anyone on 2 wheels, or hell even the few trikes around here as long as it is safe. If I'm riding through busy streets and doing a lot of shifting I just give em a nod. Most nod or wave back. There is one guy that I see at least twice a week on a little scooter that honks everytime I see him. It still catches me off guard a little.

Wuby The Wabbit · 11-08-2008, 08:53 PM

yeah i wave an everyone down here mostly everyone waves or nods back. If im at complete stop an i see a bike ride by i just nod, oooo and i also wave at cagers who do nice things for me such as let me out or give me plenty of notice where or when they are stopping and or turning lol. I love the cagers who get in the left hand lane and then realize they need to turn right and dont even look for motorcycles i almost met a 5 year old in the back seat personally 2 days ago coming out of the outlet mall down here. I would have liked to meet his mom thought she was kinda cute but the whole cell hone and not looking really took her brownie points way down lol sorry yall just venting

Went out for my first real ride today (finished the MSF basic rider course earlier today). Had one bike pass me and the guy waved so I waved back. As long as I feel comfortable and the conditions permit I will wave to all my fellow two wheel riders, except those on scooters.

HDUltrarider · 11-10-2008, 05:55 AM

I wave at all,

OcRider · 11-11-2008, 08:18 PM

I rode a scooter for a couple months before I got my Shadow 750 a couple of weeks ago... No one waved at me on the scooter now almost everyone waves... Since I'm still the exact same person now as I was a couple of months ago I'm guessing it's the bike so when safe I wave at anyone, especially scooters... A scooter is want got me here... so they can't be all bad....
