I wave except scooters, if you chose not to in return who gives a ****, I really don't. Seems like 1% and BMW riders are the worst for not returning the wave. I mostly leave my hand on the bars and raise my fingers.

Wave back. Not in turns. Not coming to or leaving stop. Anything on 2 or 3 wheels, scooters too. Wave at LEO and Fire. Wave back at kids and even hipsters waving at me.
Don't know what the hell I'd do if a Slingshot waved at me but I'd probably freeze in confusion. I think Can-Ams don't wave as much as they've probably gotten the cold shoulder enough but they qualify too.

I wave but...
No scooters, no can-am, slingshot or Spyder,. I'm mixed on this topic. In California it seems customary to wave when people are on opposing side of the (hov).
Why am I going to wave across the highway. That's wierd. I have a Jeep. Do we wave across highway barriers at each other, no. But for some reason bikers do. That's a little to much for me so I usually don't wave back. Plus I am also triple digits when in those lanes so I care more about what's on front of me than bikers across the highway
So I guess I'm a non concrete divider waiver. Once concrete barriers seperate us, **** gets weird in my head

That would be cvaria,
I read somewhere he went down because he had to wave twice in a row.
"equal opportunity waver"
Great policy :^)
Muhahahahaaaaa
Skinny helmets never wave. It's beneath them. It undermines their tough-guy image.
