Title: Motorcycle Signs of Roadside Distress?? Post by: Steve G. on June 13, 2023, 11:58:35 AM Getting into a discussion about roadside help signs. Is putting your helmet behind your rear tire a sign? I pointed out the problem with a potentially flat black helmet, on flat or semi glass black road, up against a flat or semi glass tire,,,,,as an emergency sign with very questionable visual capability from a moving vehicle. I got pushback. Title: Re: Motorcycle Signs of Roadside Distress??

A wave worked very well for me back in 2014 when the Ducati I was riding just outside of Queenstown, South Island blew up. A wave managed to assemble 40 members of the Honda Riders of Australia within 30 seconds. But it’s better to sit on a curb while your black helmet sitting on the ground finds help????? Society is falling. Title: Re: Motorcycle Signs of Roadside Distress?? Post by: Billy D on June 19, 2023, 09:51:46 AM I would look for a wave .
