I wave to scooters on accident and they never wave back. Bastards.

That's good stuff! No one ever needs to see your dd-214. That comment alone proves you're a veteran!

Stupid, I see people trying to wave going around tight corners going extremly fast. I never return the wave going around corners.

Scooter riders never wave because they are afraid to let go of the handlebars with either hand! They are scared to death when riding or they are busy texting with the other hand and can't let go to wave.

I stop waving around mid August. I just figure this late in the riding season I should have waved to everyone already at least once.

Same here, but i`ll wave or the ol`head nod to who ever is wavin, don`t see the problem. If ya don`t wanna wave back at some one don`t, still don`t see the problem. If ur gettin pissed cause someone is wavin atcha and it botherin ya so much ya have to express your anger to the world,I see a problem. Seek some H-D theropy as soon as posible before the road rage starts cause then you will need to be medicated. If I am incorrect about my assesment of the situation , which I may be, maybe you could explain it a little better. I just don`t understand a cat gettin pissed off cause someone is tryin to be friendly and toss a wave atcha, the finger maybe. Hey wait a minute, did you get worked by a guy on a scooter or sumthin. YUP H_D THEROOOOOPY

Hey I'll tell ya what pisses me off. When I'm cruising I will always give a wave at an oncoming bike, and 99% of them wave back. That's great and just normal.

One day I was cruising down one of those roads where I've ridden the bike a million times and had the window open arm resting on the edge of the door. As I passed a bike I'd hold my arm out and give the universal biker wave EXCACTLY as I do it on the bike. Not one, not even one of those low life snobs would wave back. WTF as this world come to when a biker can't wave at a brother when he's driving his truck??? I am miffed.
