There have a been a few topics on here about who waves and who doesn't on the road. This past weekend I did a little observing on the subject. A group of us were riding, all on Harleys but one Spyder and me on my custom. I saw several hundred scooters and this was what I observed. Every Harley and Goldwing rider I saw waved back. Most metric cruiser and sport bike riders waved. Very few BMW riders waved and damn near no dual sport riders waved. Hell, the BMW folks weren't even friendly at the beer joints. I don't know what any of this means but it was an observation.

If they don't wave at me I turn around and hunt them down beat their asses and take their women.

Most didn't have women. That may have been the problem. The women that were with them looked like they had a stick shoved up their ass.

Ok,so where and when did the wave begin ? First time I went to Sturgis,I thought to myself...damn this is gonna be a lot of waving and hardly anyone did it.When I go riding and have a passenger,she is the designated waver..lol.

I hate waving any more there is to much going on in front to worry about saying hey or offending some one.
and any how they ain't my brother they ain't related and we ain't on a boat!

if they were my brother they would we would be together or they would flip me of (dam relitives)'

LOL

It is a world wide thing, bmw riders here ain't friendly either.

We were stopped at a gas station last year and I said hello to a couple of them and they just looked at me like I had three heads.

I don't understand it but they seem to be a stuck up bunch, not all but most.
I did get told a couple of years ago to move my hippy ass out of the way of a bmw rider in a bar and him laugh with his cronies about the fact that the bar was definitely going down hill letting in any scum. My wife put him in his place real quick though, she just said "It has, I see they are even letting ugly people on ugly german bikes in now".....the whole place fell around the place laughing.

Well when at events like Sturgis waveing is put on hold cuz ya would never have two hans on the bars....

I have never noticed the Beemer snobery but I will do some research. Maybe it is those suits they all are required to wear, not allowing arm movement away from the handle bars...LOL

Alot of Beemer riders are too busy to wave, got their hands full messin with all them gadgets.

that must be the coffee maker then!

I specially like the electric center stands they have.

My bf and I are the only ones on a Spyder in the riding groups we've met so far.. the harley riders like it and are the friendliest bunch, the sport bike riders look at us like we're weird, lol. Most everybody tends to wave on the road tho.

Not just the BMW riders but the drivers of their cages as well tend to be snobs. Maybe they have fake limbs and can't wave them as thier vehicles cost an arm and a leg to buy and maintain.

Be sure to check out FranktheRealBikers new vid about waving...very funny!

Big Money Waver? I thought it was Bavarian Manure Wagon.

Yeah, what's up with the "Beemer Boys"??? I passed 3 of them on Route #1 yesterday and they were like the little "Plastic Men" on my Grandson's Toy Radio Controlled Sport Bike! They were sitting like they had "re-bar" up their ass.. Didn't wave, nod or even act like they were there... Maybe they pack their emotions in those fancy little "hard-bags" they bolt on that look like a pair of bloated Woodticks on a Chihuahua's ass... Either that or like the rest of the distracted drivers, they're on their cell phones via the helment "Bluetooths".... Everyone else including the "SportBikers" was happy to be out and riding... Riding, waving and enjoying life.... Sarge....

My ex wife rides a BMW with her new hubby. He's OK.. fighter jock in the Air Force. She's a bitch.

Yeah, I concur Hambone. Ex-wives can be a Bitch... Ran into one up in New Hampshire last month. Hadn't seen her in 25 years and she's more of a bitch now than she was back then! Her own sister said she just needs to get over herself and just grow up!!! Jeesh, maybe I married the wrong sister????? Sarge...

Sarge the best way to get to your ex would be to get some of her sister. Just sayin'.....

Twin sisters would be double the fun!

Hmmm... Hambone,,,, You may be onto something there! Her sister was looking pretty damn good and was awfully, awfully friendly! Right to the point of flirting!!! Hmmm??????

INCOMING!!!!!!!
