I drive a Chevy truck and I don't feel the need to wave at every Chevy truck I meet on the road....I drive a Camaro....I drive a 300ZX.....I drive a GMC Jimmy....I dont wave at everyone who drives all those vehicles...however,I usually wave BACK at most any motorcyclist who waves first...or at least give them a nod....now,in my boat ,almost everyone waves at everyone....:>)

Seen this thread 1,000 times ... I wave to all, even old fart farmers riding their tractor in the field and usually get a return wave ... probably something you city folk will never understand..

What's with the Biker WAVE?
Today I went riding and this morning passed a group of 6-8 HD riders on touring bikes and not a one returned my friendly wave.
(P.S. some of you guys are takin' this thread WAYYYYYY too serious
and it wasn't intended to be a serious gripe, it was intended for lighthearted conversation. I mean, who really cares seriously about this chit 
)
NOW 12 PAGES OF RESPONSE!! WINTER MUST BE UPON US!!

I think it is cool to wave at other bikers whatever they ride, because all riders have something in common...
We each know a skill most cagers don't know, will either never know or learn later, and envy every time they see a rider.
Reasons I learned and started to ride myself.
1. Gas prices
2. Adrenaline
3. Freedom
4. Pleasure
You can never fall asleep on a bike, to much of a rush.
