Don't recall every seeing that, but never really looking for it either.
I get more Grrrr if they don't 2 wheel salute on the pass!
then again if they want to pass at a respectable speed, Speed limit generally being 55, while I am doing 20 it's cool.
It stands to reason that if they want to whiz past at 70 splitting the lane with me they are probably well into the D.B. territory to give a 2 wheel salute anyways.
Anyways I have had motorcyclist split lanes with me often. I welcome it.
If I was a motor cyclist, I'd be more leery of doing it though, the same as there are some groups of bicyclist I won't ride with.
