I was riding home yesterday and passed 4 bikes (other that Harley} in a row and they didn’t wave back. I was in the country, Harley riders almost always wave back. It seems more and more bikers riding other brands don’t wave. Whets up with that?

I'm not sure where you are riding, but here in East Central Missouri most everyone waves including Metrics. If any one group doesn't wave it would be sport bikes. But a lot of them wave too. I think they wait to see if I'm going to wave. I wave at all bikes!
