I find it hilarious that a Harley rider is making fun of snobs. I ride a Triumph, and have encountered a lot of friendly riders, but it is my experience Harley riders will never acknowledge anyone unless they are also riding a Harley.

Well they are Harleys. The best thing to do with a snobbish Harley type (which Sal isn’t) is simply shift UP to 3rd and leave them straining to top 85 in your dust ;)

You’re riding in the wrong place, cuz.

I ‘wave’ to everyone on 2 wheels.
Most wave back.

A biker is a biker is a biker.

Sorry to spoil your theory.

"I find it hilarious that a Harley rider is making fun of snobs. I ride a Triumph, and have encountered a lot of friendly riders, but it is my experience Harley riders will never acknowledge anyone unless they are also riding a Harley."

There's a solution for that. Long, long ago, after riding custom Harley scoots (Sporties--both evil AMFs, one that would do 11.2 in the quarter) for a few years, I learned to ride in cages again and be a good family man.

Then I got Limey-itis or somethin'. Don't know what came over me.

I built an old '65 R model with a hardtail and built it right. It turned out to be fun and no snobbery from old motor sickle club friends (only the obligatory jokes).

[Shhhh. Don't tell anybody. Haven't been on a scooter for a long time. Too addictive and bad for me.]

“...but it is my experience Harley riders will never acknowledge anyone unless they are also riding a Harley.”

I ride a Harley, and an Norton. True, the Harley riders have an affinity for other Harley riders, and you really shouldn’t begrudge them this brotherhood. Harleys aren’t fast or great in the twisties, but they WILL get you there in a relaxed, comfortable style. (Except for Buells. An amazing amalgam of Harley heritage and balls to the wall performance.)

But I must admit, there are a lot more a-holes per capita who have chosen Japanese rice rockets, who think every road is a race course, and ride like they’re on some group kamekaze mission. In my experience, they seem to delight in blowing by those who ride Harleys, British Twins, or BMWs.

And, while on my Harley, I DO acknowledge the other riders who aren’t trying to make a statement about their small genitalia with suicidal antics.

I guess no waves to Moto Guzzi or Beemer riders either.
