Different wave?
This probably sounds stupid, but it's something I can't figure out.
After years of riding Suzukis, etc, I told my story in the new members forums about trading in a c50 suzuki with 300 miles on it after 3 weeks of riding to take my beating on the trade in and get the fatboyI always knew I should be riding. (pic attched)
Central Florida has many bike events and Daytona is 1 hour away. I never really felt right going to one of these without a Harley dispite my friends with HD's saying it didn't matter as long as you were riding.
Also, hwy 50 is normally packed with bikers and I noticed the Harley riders rarely waved and other bikers did the hand to the side wave. I figured when I bought the Boulevard fatboy wannabe bike I would trick some Harley guys into at least a wave at 60 mph. No chance.
I started thinking HD riders just don't wave until I got my Fatboy and get sincer waves and questions about the bike often. is this the norm or was I dillusional before???
