  1. Dual sport-the Suzuki DR650se is the way to go. It has plenty of power, excellent on the street and good off road. If you are going to ride really rough trails, get a smaller lighter bike. Normal trails and off road it is great. My son and I both own a Dr650se, we ride them on the highway and we like to ride a lot of back roads.

  2. :rolleyes: What are the friendly hand wave signals mean as 2 bikers pass by each other in opposite directions?

    I researched it on Google and came up with this:

    _________________________________________

    One finger pointed down - Harley owner (#1)

    Two fingers pointed out and/or down - V Twin

    Two fingers up - Peace (No animosity)

    Two fingers out - Rider Brotherhood

    Palm out and down - Cruiser wave

    Tight fist no higher than shoulder - Vet to Vet wave, also Black to Black Sports Biker wave

    Finger pointed out and held toward other rider - I know you or we share some incredibly obvious in common

    Fingers up while heel rests on grip - Common Sports Bike wave, Cruiser wave if not sure to commit or not

    Hand up with palm facing out - Scooter/Moped wave

    Granny Clampett wave with arm high and palm wagging back and forth - Gold Wing and/or new rider wave

    Dead End wave - Hand hanging down below knee - Was going to wave but... 1) you didn't wave first, 2) you don't have a bike equal to mine, 3) didn't meet enough "cool" criteria to continue the wave.

    Thumb Up - Looking good or a positive reply (I'm OK) (Derogatory sign in Australia and New Zealand according to my friends from there, implies buggering)

    OK sign - A question (Do you need help?, Are you OK?)

    Left thumb repeatedly jerked over the back of your head - Telling someone blocking the passing lane or on a cell phone to get the hell off the road to the right (done after passing the intended target and riding where you can be clearly seen)

    One finger salute - Middle finger held high to imply feeling of negativity toward another
