im a waver (low wave that is)...i wave at everyone as long as what i am doing in traffic allows it. i find about 60% of people wave back. sometimes i nod if my hand is busy with the clutch...

Low wave, or nod if I'm on the clutch. I've had some people give me a leg-wave as they were passing me ... it seems to be an Italian thing ...

I stopped waving. I felt like a Boy Scout at Spring Jamboree . . . waving to everyone like we were in a big club or something.

I don't wave to the other Dodge Ram drivers.

If they are on 2 wheels they either get the low wave or the low finger point, cause I wicked ****in cool. 80-90% of all bikers will respond but some don't due to tunnel vision. We're all part of the 2 wheel brotherhood IMHO.

A nod in a full helmet doesn't show. I give a flip up of the clutch hand.
