Usually when I do the gay peace sign, I take my bike and leathers to the nearest gay bar and drink some Sex on the Beaches.
I mean I'm already dressed for the occasion so why not?!

Ive been denied the wave on my old cruiser by the same old fart every time. He was on a beautiful WG. Since having my new to me fxdl, I have yet to see him but hope I do someday. I know he lives out my way.
But yes, Ive always obliged with a wave.

Even though this topics been beat to death its still fun to start a new one and see what replies i get. I will wave to people if i can...meaning i dont wave around corners...and wont wave while in traffic...i do wave if on a straight road. I wave at any mc rider although i dont get the same from everyone else. I dont care though.

I do the highly homosexual peace sign as well but I rarely initiate the wave but I'll respond when I can. I have a fear of rejection so if I do the gesture and the other rider doesn't...it'll eat at me for hours.

sometimes i I just blow them a kiss. Hey theres too much truth in the rejection comment for comfort!! OTOH when I realized I just waved to a Burgman feel a little stupid. Then I rationalize, two wheels. Fraternity etc etc. doesnt help!

I used to do that when my calf would cramp. It was that, stand up and force it to stretch or stop. But back on topic, I would wave with my leg hanging.

got tired of it years back. I very rarely wave anymore... and usually that's just a reactionary wave back, if at all. when I used to wave, it got to be such a habit that I found myself taking my hand off the bar automatically at times I wasn't comfortable with it.
of course... I'll stop if anyone's bike is broke down on the side of the road and they're alone, because I'm not a Dr. or a wrench, but i gave the wave up years back. why anyone would be offended or even care is really beyond me.

Or he may be pointing out some debris to the riders behind him.
