waza Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 but you certainly were not a rider in North America North America...fortunately...is not the centre of the universe. You put forth the argument about "Bikie" being used in N.A. Ask the Hells Angels in the States if they know what a Bikie is then......i am sure they will have heard it before. and you are wrong. The Red and Whites would not know the term and would find it offensive if used to describe them. (I am from a "closed state", where the Red and Whites moved in by patching over the Green and Whites (Brothers Fast.) and count a couple of them as friends. Well they dont seem to have that attitude in Aussie.........

ScubaBuddha Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 No bikes have rear vision mirrors ? Thats interesting. What bikes dont? Its illegal to ride a bike without them in Aus. In some places (like the US) they are called side view mirrors as they are mounted to the sides (like on cars) and a rearview mirror is mounted in the center (not possible on bikes.) from wiki A rear-view mirror (or sometimes, rear-vision mirror in British English) is a mirror in automobiles and other vehicles, designed to allow the driver to see rearward through the vehicle's backlight (rear windscreen). In cars, the rear-view mirror is usually affixed to the top of the windscreen on a swivel mount allowing it to be freely rotated. In the past, some cars had the rear-view mirror mounted on top of the dashboard. Rear-view mirrors are designed to break away to minimize injury to occupants who may be thrown against it in a collision. For motorcycles and bicycles, the rear-view mirrors are usually mounted to the handlebars, and there are usually two of them, so they are variously referred to as "rear-view mirrors", "side-view mirrors", "side mirrors", or simply "mirrors". Thanks that was my way of thinking Mine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't know the Red and Whites you probably shouldn't bring them up in conversation ... even on the internet BTW --- '<deleted>' is an offensive term.

BSJ Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I don't care what other people think. I will still wave to other riders, stop and ask if they need help when they are broken down and render first aid if needed. If we gunna act like a$$holes, we may as well sell our bikes and become car drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we gunna act like a$$holes, we may as well sell our bikes and become car drivers. Most people....except in asia....will offer assistance to a broken down car or injured person....so your comment is a little silly. But most people do not wave to complete strangers for no reason other than they believe...falsely...they have some kinship with them, even though person they are waving to may have just beaten up their wife or child before breakfast.

Should I shudder in me boots now that I have dragged up the good...but unknown name...of the red n whites ? They must be some new age Honda club with a name like that, glistening leathers and shiny new full face helmets. As for the word <deleted>.....you should tell Nick & Vince to stop it then... http://today.ninemsn.com.au/entertainment/851099/the-<deleted>-boy-2-the-kings-of-mykonos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBikeBKK Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 I wear leathers because road rash freakin' hurts! I wear a helmet because I value my head. I wear proper riding boots because etc etc I wave at pretty much anybody on two wheels. Heck I even wave at pickup trucks if they have a bike in the back. I don't care if anyone waves back. "Bikie"? Never heard that one before... Ride On! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
