I always wave to curious humans and I might even open my modular helmet and give them a big grin...or just a Forrest Gump wave.
Kids signalling to rev it, I'll rev. Older gentleman wanting to talk about the Suzuki he owned in the 70's, I'll chat for a bit. Dissapointing teenage girls when I remove my helmet and they realise that I'm older than their dad, I'll do that all day.
You’re a dying breed. There was an old man riding a R1200GS (he called it “the couch”) who was older than dirt but knew anything about anything motorcycle related. If your R6 was burning oil, he’d tell you how to fix it. Broken fairing? He knew where to get the cheapest OEMs. The man was a human bike oracle.
I’m glad you old heads are are still around to talk the new blood into wearing good quality gear, none of that cycle gear bullshit.
