Belgium
It`s a bit diff. over here.
In Belgium there arn`t many RSV riders, in the Netherlands (were I work) mutch more, even Aprilias are more over there.
But bikers are more frendly between bikers, doesn`t matter what kind of bike you ride.
What i more and more see is that the last years more and more people start to ride bikes (you can easy see who is the wannebe biker) and who want`s to be cool and who are the regular riders. I only wave to the last ones. All would be to mutch.
It`s funny to see people looking the bike, because it`s not the Duc who anyone knows. But most, like myself find the RSV more beautiful.

P.Q. Canada.
Here I've seen over the years less and less people waving back. And then the Gold Wing rider altought they usually wave, you can't see them cause their fairing is too big. Then the Harley guys only wave to other Harley but now since many Jap custom's look just as much as their Harley sometimes they're all mix up. Usualy the sportbiker's wave to other sportbiker's. And now you have the big scooter's and ... well, well.Better to wave to everybody, but I usually dont even look if they have wave back, cause it make's me mad.
I always try and nod but how can you tell if a guy with his head down on a race rep on the opposite side of a dual carriageway with a closing speed of at least 140mph has nodded or not. Or is it just my eyesight?
