Default Do you wave while changing your oil?

Some of the threads got me wondering if I should wave at other real bikers while I'm changing the oil on my bike in my driveway?

Wait a minute you change your own oil....... my dealer told me it would void my warranty unless I brought my bike to them for all oil changes every 333.33 miles.

If you don't change your oil ever 17 miles you'll get a serious case of death wobble, I thought you guys were Harley riders?

I have a special pair of fingerless gloves. vest with 3 piece MTU patch, and assless chaps hanging in the shop for when I work on my bike, of coarse I do this naked and wave at everyone.

I am a real Harley rider.....instead of changing my oil...I learn how to ride that serious case of death wobble like a BOSS...If you do maintenance to prevent the death wobble instead of facing it head on and beating it into submission....you're a *****!

Oh yeah, and I wave to bikers while I'm at my bike in my garage, not changing my oil, but screaming vroom, vroom...uh, I mean potato, potato
