You ride a Coffee style bike,In my neck of the woods, not many Harley riders would be waving at you either.

Yep, done that before too. Kinda jerky but fun at the same time.

Glad to know I'm not alone. The good old fake wave move is good for a private laugh now and again. It still bothers me when I'm going around a curve and people expect me to wave. I wave to friends that I might come across. And when I'm sitting still and see a motor cop I give the obligatory head nod.
