Will be less uncomfortable than a car pulling out in front of you because they think you are turning :shock: ;)

Get some teeny tiny indiactors that no-one can see, like Dutchy :D
That really is dangerous stuff though, carry a sharp object and every time you forget, stick yourself.
The Brain is great like that, couple of stabs and YOU WILL REMEMBER :kuda:

.....buy a beamer...they turn off by themselves dont they?

Seriously though.....learn the "you've left your blinkers on doofus" signal (open and close hand repeatedly) - the number of times I've tried to let peeps know they've left their blinker on using that signal to be met with no response or a dazed confused look is amazing. Oh and while I'm on a rant....if I nod at you , nod back noobs!! It's polite!! LOL rant over. :lol:

I do plenty of nodding, the sideways nod feels extra cool.

Up with the hand talking signal too, seen it plenty! :? ;)

Learnt early on not to nod at cruiser riders :kuda:
