re: Why riders dont wave back....
mmm, reminds me of someone i know with a goldwing, he has the cruise control throttle lock type thing. sometimes he has gotten the bike on a straight path and then hopped on the passenger seat (doesn't count as a pillion really, does it?.
He said it's fun to wave at cars like that as he goes past
