Top 10 Reasons Why Harley and BMW Riders Don't Wave
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope this isn't a repost. I just got it and thought it was funny.
Top Ten Reasons Why Harley Riders Don't Wave Back:
10. Afraid it will invalidate warranty.
9. Too much leather and studs make it too hard to raise arm.
8. Refuses to wave to anyone whose bike is already paid for.
7. Afraid to let go of handgrip because it might vibrate off.
6. Rushing wind would blow scabs off the new tattoos.
5. Still angry from taking out second mortgage to pay luxury tax on new Harley.
4. Just discovered the fine print in owner's manual and realized HD is partially owned by Japanese motto manufacturers.
3. Can't tell if other riders are waving or just reaching to cover their ears like everyone else.
2. Remembers the last time a Harley rider waved back, he impaled his hand on spiked helmet.
1. They're jealous that after spending $30,000, they still don't own a BMW K1200LT

7. Reflection from $8000 worth of approaching bolt-on chrome momentarily blinded him..

5. Was actually asleep when other rider waved.
4. Was in a three-way conference call with stock broker and BMW accessories dealer to buy BMW chrome pegs.
3. Was distracted by odd shaped blip on radar screen.
2. Was simultaneously adjusting the windshield height, programmable CD player, seat temperature and satellite navigation system.
