Headlight wiggle

One thing that I have done to try and let people know I am coming at them; when they look like they are making a turn or on my left hand side comming to an intersection, is to wiggle my bike at them. I try and move the bars and head in thier direction for just a second. I have noticed that it gets thier attention and they see me. Kind of like the flashing headlight. I learned this from a Motorcycle
Cop that pulled out in fromt of me in his cage and I hit him. He told me this after the wreck! Ever notice when it looks like someone is going to drive into your lane, you see them coming and take action. Kind of the same priciple, only you do it on purpose and never do go into thier lane.

Wow, a motocop who didn't look for a bike! That guy should have become the next security guard at the local mall if I had been in charge

Increasing your visibility is never a bad idea, heck the more obvious the better it just kills me the situation surrounding this. It's like he was blaming you for him not looking where he was going.

Oh well, I'll stop before my blood pressure gets too high. Sounds like it could work to increase visibility though just don't rely on them seeing you. EVER.

Thanks for the tip,

I always consider every cager out there as if they were retarded, suicidal, and out to take me with them. Keeps me in the right frame of mind when ever they are near me. I even had one back out onto me from a parking spot while I was waiting my turn at astop sign.

Happy riding y'all. Just came to the darkside 4 days ago. And the sun finally came out and the rain stopped. As soon as I get home from work I'm gettin' her out !!

Add me to that list please!! As soon as my days off arrive (it'll be raining again, with a chance of snow) I'll finish the profile and get some pics up.

Peace out.

Run the Signal Dynamics headlight flasher or something like it...saved my hide a many of time!

I ride like I can't compete with anything on the road (cause we can't) when I see a vehicle approaching the road I am on I instintively figgure they aren't going to stop and allow for it ,when they don't they don't come close and suprisingly I am not upset.I have a friend that has one of those blinking headlights ,I will not ride ahead of him cause it irritates the hell out of me .RIDE SAFE Larry S.
