I'm with Dwight. When I had my fishing boat. Everyone waved. When I had the wimpiest motorcycle of all, a Honda Rebel, still everyone waved. Now I have a real motorcycle and I still wave. Not in the middle of shifting gears, not in turns, but I'm an unrepentant waver. It shows esprit de corps. It is tradition. Are we buying into the notion that everyone whoe doesn't ride (or wish they did) subscribes to that motorcycles are so unsafe that we can't take one hand off the handlebars without fear of the bike spontaneously crashing? This whole thread is ridiculous. If waving is a problem to you, then maybe you should ditch your bike and buy a Prius.
